Hi Fred CAC made it possible for me to own Corvettes in Euroland. I am back in the states for a while but my '90 hotrod is tucked away in Europe waiting for me. You will get lots of good info here and save tons of Euros thanks to all of the free expert advice. The best GM wrench in Europe is...

Hi G Winter Hi, Thanks to you I still have the only C4 in Europe with a tow hitch. I have towed a thousand liters of wine from France to Spain and a boat from the UK to Africa. I am back in the US for a while, getting new knees, with any luck our paths will cross. The best of the new year...

If it makes you feel better I have had the same problem with more than one L98. Like Junk said " it's the age that gets you." The only thing I encountered more miserable to remove and install than the TPI induction system was the Mini-Ram until today. Getting the water pump off of the 455 Olds...

Nearly had to call on you for help The GMC motorhome has had a slow coolant leak since I bought it in August. There are miles of plumbing to the water heater and cabin heaters and I never could find any witness marks. It only leaked about a liter every thousand miles so I did not worry much...

Happy New Year from the Grand Canyon When do the parts come back from the machine shop? I am headed East at the moment, need to be in Pensacola next week. I should be coming back the southern route the last week of the month. If you could use some dumb muscle to lift motors and such I would...

I am looking at doing the same trip but in a classic '75 GMC motor home. It looks to me like the best is back and forth from east to west working your way North to South if you start in the summer. Doing it that way you can miss Blizzards, Tornados and Hurricains. Just do not rumble the...

Never had a Q-jet leak And never had a Holly stay dry for long. Just for fun why not TBI fuel inject it. The 454 TBI setup looks a lot like a carb so it does not mess up the looks of the engine bay and the tuning is easy. I just converted a 75 GMC motorhome to TBI. Easy 2 day job and she...

Why these guys do not work and for me are a bad idea. They are LH threaded & tapered, the idea is that you drill a hole in the center of the bolt, insert the extractor and by screwing it down into the bolt it grips the bolt and turns it counter clockwise, removing the bolt. BS what actually...

Time to get nasty with the torx At this point it is probably safe to say that the manifold is going to have to be re-tapped and have heli-coils installed in a lot of the threads. It will not cost much more to re-tap and heli-coil all of the threaded holes and that will end this problem forever...

No, use the RTV named Right Stuff when you put the intake manifold back on. I have tried other products and they always start leaking. Never had a leak with the right stuff. Have you tried banging the bolt a few times before trying to remove it?(use the torx with a long extension and tap the...

I think that there is an impossible to see nut on the back side of the bottom bolt. I remember that one of the compressor bolts had a nut on it. You only need to move the compressor a bit forward. I have had Thunder's off so many times that it should be attached with quick disconnects. 90% of...

Try pushing the cutout side of the clip in with the thinnest, strongest, little flat blade screwdriver in your toolbox. About 50% of the time I get lucky and the sucker comes out without hurting the wires.

:BOW Tony - you is a genius. You should be running for President.:upthumbs One question: Do I put the band on top of or underneath the Pizza?:confused

That should cover the trouble to ship em out And leave a few bucks to buy the Navy boys a beer.:beer Not sure how to package em. I think I can just roll em up and stick em in a flattish box. email me your shipping address. Use the business email: speedkarts@terra.es

Thunder is a 1990 with the stock 17¨ wheels. The sensors are different colors. I will have to go into the warehouse to measure one. They look like a big-ass hose clamp.

I have some bands and sensors. Not sure which corners they come from. Pay me what ever is fair to package one and drive 15 miles to the Navy base plus Priority Mail shipping from zip 09645 and a band is yours. Igeaux Paypal account speedkarts@terra.es

Need more info. Lots of things make the L98 miss. Do the basic trouble shooting first. I had a miss at operating temp caused by the RTV on the intake leaking coolant. Somewhere here at CAC there is a 3 page about it. Is the engine ¨stock¨ ? Several of us have had lots of problems with the plug...

That is really purdy:upthumbs

This is just WRONG! Hey dude, I loved you when you were a Marine kicked back on that couch in Baghdad and I still agree with you on most points but Billery is just wrong, Wrong, WRONG. Now how do I get the wine out of my keyboard that you made me spray in a fit of laughter...

I did not pass on it grumpy; the shipping to Spain are just too high and I am still happy with my ThermalArc machine. A few weeks back you posted a bit on the codes on welding sticks. Thanks, like all of your info it got filed away, printed, plasticized, and stuck on the wall. We use the page...
