    LT4 Brake Problem a 96 LT4

    OK. I took the car to a Corvette specialist. He adjusted the pushrod between the Power Brake booster and the master cylinder. That gave me a little more pedal. He did a Auto Bleed. And yes, he does have the right equipment. I still do not have the confidence that I can stop the car in an...

    LT4 Brake Problem a 96 LT4

    I have a 96 LT4 with brake problems. 60,00 miles. The pedal is soft with poor stopping power. I can feel the pedal slowly drop off the last two inches like the master cylinder had a leak. Then the pedal gets firm. Because the 95 and 96 has a different braking system and requires special...

    Too much Crankcase Oil???

    About 7 years ago I gave up doing my own oil changes and began taking my '96 LT4 to a Chevrolet dealer for service. I have always babied it and figured they would service my car right. Who knows Corvettes better? Last year I discovered that they had put 6 quarts of Mobil 1 in the car when I had...

    Question: 1996 period correct battery

    My Factory Service Manual says a replacement is 75B-72. And I'm sure that is a Delco number, the second figure being the length of the warranty. I replaced mine 4 years ago with an AC Delco 75-60. Figured I couldn't go wrong with another AC Delco since the original lasted 12 years.

    Power door lock actuator

    Here is a link to a Corvette parts house. It indicates that the two parts are 84-93 and 94-96. Also, as there is a picture of both significantly different parts, you can always visually check yours and determine the correct part. The Last Detail Corvette Parts

    What makes you choose the Corvette as your car of choice.

    I had a friend in San Bernardino who loved Corvettes and each time I visited him he had to show me triple digits on the speedo. It never felt as if we were going that fast and even though I was the passenger, it hugged the road like it was on rails. I became more interested in Corvettes and...

    Question: Anyone Over 65 Years Old and . . . . . ?

    75 and doing my own work when I can. As you can imagine, I have a lot of wrinkles and enjoyed putting every one of them on my face. I don't like/have the facilities to crawl under there any more. But otherwise I would do my own work. I have done a lot of wrenching in my life time, including a...
