    Question: Acquiring an 82 cross fire

    Hi Bobby :w to add to what the guys are saying: Yes, one can mod the hell out of the X-Fire, but, some just learn how to adjust it right and have a nice driver. Mine has been running for the 23 years i've had her and i havent been let down more than a handfull of times. Yes, you need learn about...

    Wipers power OFF while driving in rain.....

    Hate to disagree with you here, Kane, but when my Intermittant module gave out, only the delay function was off. All other wiper functions worked fine, ie slow and speedy worked fine. Especially with the heat description, i am leaning to wiper motor getting hot or the rheostat, thus disabling...

    Question: Too high at the front after replacing rubbers and shock absorbers

    Hi Kate.. Very nice car.. :thumb What the guys are suggesting is this: AIM1 or here AIM2 or directly from CorvetteAmerica (they also have this on CD, which might make it easier to ship?) i would also suggest the Shop Manual, not sure how good the 72 shop manuals are, but for my 82, it's a...

    Failed Fuel Mileage Checks

    Why wouldnt you follow whats posted on the sticker in your car? Over or under inflating your tires can either wear them early or ruin your fuel mileage or be actually dangerous..:confused ;squint:

    Wipers power OFF while driving in rain.....

    Without knowing all the details, i would think, the rheostat might be getting warm or the switch itself, if it functions well after cooling down. I would test this theorie by running it in all settings while cold, then heat up the car if you can and do the same, see if that makes any...

    Networking sites

    I've been on LinkedIn for a while and have gotten a few hits for jobs via that. I ignore the social media part and groups. There are enough headhunters out there that will look for you without the groups.. ;) :w Stefan

    1982 Center Console 2 out of 4 lights dont work

    So, just to give everyone a final: I was in the USA late June for a weekend trip (First wedding of a nephew, wife insisted we go, bit of a drag but..), so i had ordered an extra low fuel warning module (from Wilcox' Ebay store) for all of 20$ and a few Console light bulbs. Just got done...

    New engine for an 82

    Bit of a wild question, as it depends what you are looking for. So, with that said, let me try an answer: 1) Keep it original: Have it rebuild, usually pretty expensive, but once done, it should be good. The X-Fire does go nicely when it is works right. 2) Dont care about original but want to...

    1982 crossfire

    Ah! sorry bit slow on the uptake Jim.. :chuckle The O2 is usually to blame, yes. When the "Computer" (Ie Sensor) detects an incorrect temp from the O2 it doesnt all sorts of fun things, like not going into closed loop.. Err, ever 30k miles? Why? What source did tell you that? Never heard of a...
