Tuna, you've had your E-Ray for a year and a half now. How about an update on your experience?

Since I posted this on another bike site, it's been made clear that I'm no pioneer on this. It turns out there's already a grease gun/needle tool available, just for such uses. And, it's zerk fed. I did use my syringe on my car, and I think I noticed less stiction from the A-arms. Probably...

Gotta really push hard to get the grease to flow, but it works. Don't know if it'll make a difference, but it's more lubed now, than it's ever been! The grease I used is Red-I #2 (NLGI) Sticky stuff.

So, I was thinking about how I used to get under my trucks to inspect/lube or replace heim joints, shackles, tie rods, pitman arms, etc. One of the things I did was hit lots of linkage zerk fittings with my trusty Lincoln grease gun. I was under my C6 that has 96,XXX miles, looking at all...

Sounds like a cable ferrule slipped off the end of the cable. Happens all the time, now that these cars are 20 years old. Yootoob has videos on how to fix. Even temp fixes to get you out of the gas station or parking lot.

...annnd 1 month later, the car is STILL in the showroom! (It was offered for $50,000 ADM to a fellow Corvette Club member. That this dealership is supposed to support!) Hard pass!

At the beach. (This WAS my car.)

Same beach.
