Well i just bought a 89 sc today for 300$ needs a clutch paint and interior needs a good scrubbing. I got a few problems if anybody can help me out with, the car wont start when i turn the key, i have been jumping the solenoid:( to start it. Supercharger makes a noise when idleing are they suppose to do that?:eek:

I'd try to change the soleinoid for the starting issue.The noise could be a few things some of it might be blower noise it also commom for the tensioner pulleys to make some noise on a car with some miles.Oh congrats on the new ride they are a blast.If you have questions it's always good to use the search function it the tech forum if you can't find what you're looking for then start a new thread.

I'm pretty sure its just a little blower noise but dont they usually make noise at idle? I have wanted one for awhile my dad has a 92 sc auto that i made him get for himself and i have a 96 lx v-8 also that i have been waiting to put a engine in i just always wanted a sc with a stick and i finally got it!:D

nice hot rod:) Mine might be up and running this weekend. If you make that look as good as 350 extremes ride I will be impressed. as far a idle blower noise it should blend with the motor if it is making a growling noise then you have a bad snout bearing. be sure to check the super charger oil level.

The car will look good i'm thinking i might paint it black but idk yet. It is a growling noise but seems to go away when i give it gas:confused: fluid level is plum full. What year is your sc?

$100 is pretty weak. I'll see what I can do about pics of the seats. I'd give them a good cleaning.
