Mine leaks from the bottom of the windshield. The foam seal is stuffed and with rust causes water to come in. It has a habit of falling on my right foot.

It really only happens in heavy rain or highway runs.

I paid around $450-$500 for genie extractors and a 2 inch exhaust fitted to my 86 sierra (no cat) from an exhaust place in airport west.

It's been in the car for about 4 years and have had no problems. I only got a slight gain in power and a cooler exhaust note.

To me it sounds more like an electrical problem than a carbie problem. If the radio won't turn on i'd be checking fuses and wires. There is a idle up solenoid and a fuel cut off solenoid (correct me of i'm wrong) that requires power to it. I disconnected it once and it stalled my engine.
