Do all 84 Corvettes ride like log wagons? Mine is no fun on a rough road. If they all ride like mine GM would not have sold any when they were new. I am going to replace all the bushings, ball joints, and anything else that might help. Maybe lower the air pressure (not too much) in my tires...

I need the Incredible Hulk to help me open the hood on my 84 Corvette. I installed two new assist cylinders or whatever you call them and it made no difference at all. Are all 84 hoods this heavy? :mad

Light weight top I purchased one for my 84. It attaches easily with bolts on each side of the upper windshield (no tools needed) and uses 4 Velcro strips at the back side. (these do not show) You don't have to worry about it blowing off at speed. I can handle it easily by myself as it folds...

I am having a problem with the speedometer working on my 84. All other features seem to be working on my display except for the frequent temporary dark screen. I have checked plastic gear in the transmission and the permanent magnet generator and all seems well. As I understand the speed...

You may have a problem with your battery voltage. I had this same problem with my 84. I could not understand why it was happening. When I checked my battery voltage it was below the desired level. The system was warning me of this problem by switching to the voltage indicator. This is the...

Fuel Pressure Adjustment Kane, I read your post with interest and can see you are making a lot of progress. I am also learning a lot about the CFI system. I am interested in knowing how you would adjust the fuel pressure if it was needed. I understand there is an adjustment on the fuel...

84 Dash Display Question Thanks to everyone who took the time to reply to my question. That was the answer I wanted to hear. :happyanim:

Question! Does the dash display have any effect on the operation of my 84 Corvette? I know it is connected to the ECM and there is an exchange of information between the two, but is it necessary for the dash display to be working correctly for my car to perform as it should? The reason I ask...

When car is cold it starts and drives ok, but when it is parked and restarted a little later (say 1 hour) it will crank but has no power and wants to die. After I let it set until it cools down it will start and drive ok again until I park it and restart it later while it is still warm. Fan...
