[V8] New to the 1990 V8

Nope.  The regulators do jam up internally.  Maybe you've got three of
those.  I guess if someone only used the drivers window...

Would the lockout switch keep them from working @ the drivers side door? I
can hear relays clicking when I operate the front Pass window from the
drivers side controls.

Windows:  could be multiple problems.  Check the lockout switch that
disables the rears.  Does the rear cigarette lighter work?  That gets
disabled by the lockout switch as well.  The 1990 doesn't have the extra
features for windows that the 91 has so that will hopefully simplify your
troubleshooting.

Ed- 

I haven't done too much with the engine other than change the plugs, we just
got an awesome snow storm.

4. The only window that works from the drivers side is the drivers side,
none other windows work from anywhere in the car.

1. Too rich will kill the cats if they're not already.  Unplug the temp
sensor on the back of the passenger side head and see if there's much
difference.  Is it hard to start when cold?  I also had to replace the MAF
recently due to symptoms similar to what you describe.  Also try unplugging
the OXS...  driver side, inboard of the distributor, below the cruise
control diaphram... Single wire with a rubber boot on it.

4. Do they work from any switch, drivers door or their own?  Is the drivers
window one that doesn't work?

6. I beleive the climate control head is the same.

Just picked up a V8Q in decent shape body wise (minus a fender), but shes
got a few nuisances.

Plans:

1 - Fix Funky Engine Power Band/Misfiring
2 - Driveline Clunk
3- Drivers Side Fender Replace
4 - Fix the 3 windows that don't go down
5 - Figure out the Wonky Ass Wipers
6 - Climate Control LED doesn't light up



I am thinking the power band may be a timing issue or clogged cats (smells
really rich), I have heard the driveline might be a prop shaft, windows are
possibly regulators need to look into this more with the fluke. Haven't
looked at the wipers or climate control, I have a spare CQ climate control
unit are they interchangeable?
