Buick Electra Parts

The Buick Electra, a luxury automobile, was manufactured and marketed by Buick from 1959 to 1990. Serving as Buick's flagship vehicle throughout its production, it was most commonly offered as a four-door sedan but also occasionally as a two-door sedan, convertible, and five-door station wagon. Built on General Motors' C platform, the Electra showcased a wheelbase measuring 126 inches. The 1959 model featured a standard 401-liter Wildcat V8 engine with four-piston carburetors, boasting a 10.25:1 compression ratio and 325 horsepower, paired with a two-speed Dynaflow transmission. The standard parts for the Electra included power steering and brakes, 12-inch brake drums, and aluminum calipers, while the convertible variant had additional front seats. The 1961 redesign saw the Electra with smaller fins, bright wing panels, a new steering wheel, turbocharged automatic transmission, windshield wipers, and a deluxe gauge. The 1964 model, Buick's most sophisticated full-size car, sported a large C-platform body, vertical taillights almost directly cut into the rear bumpers, 'twin headlights' mounted in the bumper surrounds, four traditional VentiPorts at the front, and contoured grilles. The engine options in 1965 were the same as in 1964, with a standard 325 hp V8 and two more powerful versions of a single-burner or twin-burner V8. These Buick Electra parts collectively contributed to the car's excellent driving qualities.

Despite its comfort and suitability for daily commuting or family use, Buick Electra, like any full-size luxury car, can experience wear and tear, leading to common problems. Engine failure, often occurring around 140,000 miles, is a significant concern and can manifest as engine noises, rough running, misfiring or stalling, leading to overheating due to leaking coolant and performance issues. Critical engine components, including the spark plug, oil filter, air filter, cylinder head gasket, and intake manifold gasket, should be inspected if there are starting issues or increased fuel consumption. Suspension failure, although often underestimated, can cause vehicle vibrations, uneven tire wear, and difficulty in vehicle control. Components like the wheel bearing, shock absorber, sway bar bushing, and sway bar kit should be closely monitored. For prolonged vehicle health, routine maintenance, particularly of frequently used electrical parts like the power window switch and seat switch, is essential.
