I DD my 86 C4 everyday 40 miles round trip. At 214,xxx on the ODO. In time you run into small repairs such as any car would, however the satisfaction of the durability and quality in the Vette surpasses most every day, being a DD. These cars are meant to be driven. Good luck on your purchase...

Okay, Ive been running the Autolite 3924's. gapped at .035

I know how the EGR works. Some say you should wait 2-3 minutes to let your car warm up. And some say only about 30 seconds, but not to lay on the throttle until the fluids temps are in the low to middle 100's. The EGR temp switch activates the EGR at 175F, so for some people, whom like to take...

Lol the EGR has a lot to do with driving, If temps are not adequate, you may cause Cylinder head damange. Also heating up the viscosity of your oil does a better lubricating job for rods, pistons, cam, ect. they go hand in hand

Wondering the Best suggestion for new plugs for my 1986? Thanks, Sean

Well, I usually wait for the coolant temp to get out of the "LO"state, and take off around 105F-110F. From my understanding that is when the EGR temp goes into effect and is safe. Correct me if Im wrong

Where can I get my hands on one of these?

The simple fact that they are using anything less than a v-8.

This will tarnish the name of Corvette and a complete embarassment to all of us.. absolute garbage. Congradulations GM youve now joined Japan in the worse displacement designs ever. We have freedom for a reason, because we are NOT like other countries, no we are BIGGER and BETTER.

I have 208,000 on my 86 and mileage/year according to my insurance it rates below average.

Rgr that Gunny! Oohrah

Im looking to go FIC injectors, where did you get yours, how much did you pay? And what Brand did you go and why? Im currently running Accel Multec's

On an L-98 the thermostat opens at 180. Thus why the thermostat is labeled 180. in lamens terms. a 160 opens at 160 and a 180 opens at 180. my HD 180 opens at 180, and will drop down to 170.

Ive tried them all, overall long life and best performance aspect is a heavy duty balanced 180. If the temp is too close the thermostat goes into a open close loop. which may cause it to freeze, in L-98 you need the 180 because of your first two cylinders. I suggest a Mr. gasket balanced 180...
