1988 Cadillac fleetwood brougham d'elegance firing order?

Answer 1

Hello,

I've recently acquired a 1988 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham D'Elegance RWD from the original owner, who also owned the Cadillac dealership here. It was still in the dealer's name, never titled.

It has only a little less than 11,000 miles on it. However, it has been sitting for 5 years in storage. Therefore, I am doing a lot of routine preventive maintenance.

The car has a 5.0 Liter, 3.7 V-8 Engine with an electronic Carb.

I've run several quarts of Lucas Fuel System Cleaner/Treatment through it with premium (93 octane) gasoline & it still has "smoking blow-by." However, it is NOT consuming engine oil. Nonetheless, the oil gets dark very quickly.

My mechanic says the carb. needs to be re-built. He has known the car since it was made, as he was to Service Director at the Cadillac dealership.

Yesterday, I bought a PCV Valve, a Fuel Filter & a 180 degree thermostat with a gasket & sealer kit.

Can you tell me how to locate, R&R these items?

Sincerely,

Jack D. Rash
