Helpful Renix links....
Here is a list of Renix links that I put together on another forum a while back. Just thought I'd share them here.



For anyone who owns an 87-90 Renix, be it 4 cylinder or 6 cylinder, you know how frustrating it can sometimes be to track down the correct diagnostic info. I have compiled a list of very helpful links regarding the Renix era engines.

No problem. I even searched this forum first to make sure that this kind of thing didn't exist prior to posting.

Finally, a Renix rundown all in one spot, and just as I was about to pull my hair out, about my 89 Idling to high. The other day it did Idled up to about 2,500 on my wife, and she just slapped it into Drive. Ever since then my U-joints have been speaking to me. This has got to be the single most important resource I have found on this forum to date. THANK YOU!!!
