    Drove the Vette Today

    I took mine out yesterday and today. Yesterday was the first time in 2 months, and I was surprised how fast it started. I just turned the key, I didnt even hear it turn over and it started. Love the Opti! :D

    Code to Unlock Radio

    You do not say if you bought the car new or not. If used, sometimes the last owner will put it in the owners manual. If it is not in there, the car will have to got to the dealer. Make sure when you get the code to write it in the manual. Some dealers charge anywhere from and 1/2 hour to an...

    One of a kind Corvette--1998 Colani Super Corvette

    From what I seen it the future, I'm glad I'm in the present. It just looked like a bunch of crap.

    Barrett Jackson

    I watched it on and off, and it sure looked like some shady deals where going down. Makes you wonder if the charity money they collect made it where its supose to go. It just puts the whole operation under question. It doesnt help that Shelby lent his name to it, as it puts his name as a...

    u joints

    Are you talking about half shaft or drive shaft u-joints? Some back and forth play on the drive shaft is ok. whats not ok is sideways play.

    u joints

    Usually the joints go bad because they dried up. If they had grease in them, and they were still moving freely, they were most likly OK. Im with you, mark everything, and pass on the alignment.

    Speed Channel

    Pinks, 50 seconds of racing stretched into 30 minutes. I'll turn the TV off before I watch that. There is more commercial time than racing!

    '96 Service/shop manual(s)

    The 96 manual has info on both engine options, the LT1 and the LT4. The LT4 was first offered in 96 with the automatic transmission.

    Working on your C4...

    It's not to bad, really. I have done plugs, wires, water pump, and a rear wheel bearing. On the engine, I usually take the front tires off, and that gets me real close to the engine, and makes working on it a whole lot easier. The service manual is a good idea to, for any car really. I try...

    '96 Service/shop manual(s)

    The white cover manual is what you may be thinking of, its the pre production manual. Its what I have, both a 94 and 96. I got the 94 on ebay, the 96 at Corvettes at Carisle event. The red ones are post production books. Is the white better than the red? I don't think so, and the White is...

    Glasspacks on my '96

    My idea would be if you do decide to install glasspacks, make sure you save your old exhaust, for a while anyway. Just incase you decide its to loud. I installed them on a chevelle I had once, and realize it was so loud you could not carry on a conversation in the car, let alone hear the...

    1994 - shakes when I reach 68-74 MPH

    I had a vibration in mine going between 58-62MPH, though I wouldnt have called it violent. Anyway, turned out to be a couple leaking spark plug wires. I would have thought it would happen at other speeds, and I thought it certainly was a tire. I installed new wires, for a miss the engine...
