    Resolved Finally Finally got around to looking at this. Was checking grounds, connections etc. Now the car doesn't fire. Someone on another forum suggested pulling the 4 wire connector from the ECM to the distributor. Still no fire. When I reconnected, it check the ground connection on...

    81 stalls code 23 from ECM

    1981 stock corvette, 87K. Last month or so, idles up fine, runs ok on the road until it’s warmed up. Check engine lite comes on and it dies. Cranks back up and does it again within 5-10 minutes. I replaced the fuel filter (pretty nasty) and I still get it. Today I took it out. After...

    Brake issue-pulling

    Thanks for the help. I'll check the hoses and see if fluid is getting thru. I'd like to replace calipers/hoses/rotors but don't have the $800 to do it. If I can nail the exact problem down, won't have to spend to much I hope.

    81 can't get in gear

    Thanks for the quick reply. The shift lever doesn't move at all. I'll check the bearings on that side but what we keep the shift lever from moving?

    81 can't get in gear

    I have a stock 81, auto transmission and something bad happened. I noticed a thumping noise on the driver's rear while in reverse. Ocasionally it would grind. I put the car on jacks, and popped off the wheel. I started the car and put it in reverse. Passenger side looked/sounded good, but...
