While checking the vacuum hoses for a potential leak, I discovered the electrical connector was not making proper contact with the pins on the cruise diaphragm (pancake). Just took a test ride...hasn't been performing this smooth while in cruise control for quite some time. Thanks again for...

Thanks for your help, Don. I'll let you know what I find based on the information you have provided. Dennis

Surge as DonB has referred to in a subsequent reply to my question is a better description of the problem. I'll be checking for the potential fixes as he has suggested. Thanks for your help! Dennis

My C4 is a 1985 with automatic transmission and has 115,000 miles on it. With only a few minor exceptions, the vehicle is completely stock. When driving on a level surface with the cruise control engaged, the engine pulsates. While not enough to observe a variation in rpm on the tachometer...

Having more time due to retirement, I'm gradually restoring/replacing various components on my 85 Coupe. Does anyone know if the lens on the backup lamps can be cleaned? The original lens are dark and sooty looking as if exhaust has accumulated on the inside surface of the lens. Dennis R.

A very interesting upgrade and inexpensive upgrade! Thanks for sharing!! :w

Thanks for the feedback! Coincidentally, I contacted McGard yesterday and learned that they no longer offer replacement caps for the OEM supplied wheel locks. As you have suggested, I ordered a new set of McGard locks and caps.

I had a set of the BFG's installed last week, and while I've only put on a few miles, I'm very pleased with the improvement in handling and ride. Thanks again for your help!

I'm in need of one black plastic cap for a locking lug nut on an '85 C-4. Thus far I've only been able to locate caps for the non-locking lug nuts.

Thanks for the feedback. Are you running with 16" wheels on your '85, or have you upgraded to perhaps 17"?

I checked the tires listed on the Nitto site. Unfortunately they do not offer tires for the 16" rims on my car. As I'm striving to leave the car as near to original spec's as possible, I'm reluctant to replace the original rims with a larger size. Appears as if BFG is my only option. Thanks...

Thanks for the tip. We're leaving on a 10-day vacation. I'll check it out after we return. Dennis R.

Hello - I'm a retired grandfather of five who purchased a 1985 C-4 coupe in 1992. It's gold in color thus the tagline...Sld_Gld. We are approaching 110k in miles having put roughly 70k on the car since we purchased it. The only other sporty type car that I owned was a 1960 Karmann-Ghia...

It's time to replace the Goodyear GT+4 tires on my 1985 coupe. As it has been many years since I purchased the last tires, any recommendations would be much appreciated. I would like to soften the ride a bit and minimize noise on the highway. I'm using the original rims. Thanks for your help!
