Just picked up a 91 RS with a meager 244K on it. Car just needs some basic wrenching which we are doing. The big problem is the anti-freeze it's eating. Compression was 180 on all 4 cylinders. Car sits overnight - no problem and starts with minimal fuss or smoke. If you start it after running errands around town, you get a huge cloud of white smoke with the smell of anti-freeze every time. The starts are hard with a lot of missing until it clears the fluid out. No oil in water or water in oil. I was thinking intake gasket but after reading the forum I'm thinking head gasket. The car makes solid power and has a new aluminum rad and heater core installed.
Replacing the heater core was fun. :lol:
