Common problem on the V6 (I used to have)
Probably your door lock mechanism is ok, but look at the door jam, that
cyclindric thing on the frame where the lock attatches.  It's a rubber
bushing kinda thing with a metal sleeve.  That may need to be
adjusted/replaced.  Play with it, rotated so the lock catches better.  If
not, you may need a frfesh one.  Not expensive.  They adjust with a hex key.
Good luck, and keep your seat belt on!!

<<The Passenger side door on my 86 GTV6 has decided it will no longer stay
closed! I have tried using wd-40 and lock de-icer with no avail. I checked
the drivers side, and on the good (working) side, when I press in the two
parts of the female (connected to door) part of the door lock, they click in
until I use the door opener, but the two parts do not stay closed on the
pass
(not working) door. What does this mean???
Any help would be greatly appreciated as my friends are tired of holding
their door shut as we drive! I have also lost the abilty to drive by myself
because of this!!!
Thanks,
Jeff>>
