Re: 505 STI 1987- Weird Peugeot Electrical Demons Return

I just bought that 84 505S XN6 sedan automatic blue velour for my sister
(unless she doesn't want it). Car is really clean in and out, engine
runs exc. Slight amount of coolant on oil dipstick. Hope a head
re-torque will take care of it. Car only has 67K miles! Same color
(light grey) as my 85 wagon except paint not faded, looks very
presentable. The turn signals flash sometimes and sometimes not. Main
Bosch fuel pump is clicking (according to owner: he installed in tank
pump (Purolator) when the car was running rough, didn't want to spend $
for OEM pump). Should be easy to fix. Electrical problems are simple
for me (with wiring diagram). I did not spend a lot of time going over
rest of car since I had to get back to work. Figure I can't go wrong
for $500.
