Reputable Used Parts I just wanted to echo Greg Gore's reply. I have bought several things from Vette2Vette. Excellent quality, excellent service, very fair pricing. They reply to e-mails promptly and if you call, you talk with the owner. He is a very small business, but he is focused on...

Spare Key As a last resort yesterday, I did try the spare key w/o success, but thanks a bunch for the thought and reply. I think (and hope) I have narrowed the problem down to the TPS. The spec is supposed to be .54 volts. The actual reading is .74 volts. I squirted a little starting fluid...

Spark O.K. Checked for spark last night and it seems o.k. I'm thinking of checking out the Throttle Body Sensor next. Anyone have experience with this.? I read the spec. is 0.54 volts. If I check it tonight and it is off, is the current TBS adjustable? If so, can someone share with me how...

I have a new fuel pump (AC Delco) for '84 Vette. The fuel pump also fits other GM vehicles. I ordered a pump for my '90 from gmpartsdirect and they sent me the pump for an '84 and they don't take back electrical parts. I first realized the problem when I checked the pump and it only put out...

Hard Starting I checked the injectors last night with an Ohm meter and they appeared o.k. All the injectors measured 17.5-17.8 Ohms. I'll pick up an old spark plug on the way home and check for spark this evening. Just checking for spark won't be a definitive answer since the car at times...

After winter storage, I have been facing an increasingly hard time getting the car to start. The Vette is a '90 (L98) with 28,000 miles. Initially, first time started in the morning, car fired right up. After sitting in the parking lot at work, took about 10-20 minutes to get it to start. I...

Thanks for the help Thanks for all three responses. Jason @ vette2vette had the exact replacement for $12 (shipped). I have purchased from him previously. He responds immediately to e-mails and ships within one day and his prices are very reasonalble for anyone looking at used parts. I'll...

I replaced my electric fuel pump ('90 L-98). I damaged the old strainer when removing. When I tried to buy a new one, I discovered they no longer manufacture that part. None of my local dealers have it and gmpartsdirect does not list it either. Can anyone suggest a possible source that may...

I'm still troubleshooting a hard starting problem when the car sits in the sunlight. I checked several places, but can anyone confirm if there is indeed a check-valve in the fuel system ('90 Coupe). If so, where is it located. I would assume it is part of the fuel pump assembly, but in...

Never ceases to amaze me the resources on this web. Looking in the garage, I already have most of the fittings, etc. needed to make the gauge. I only need the 0-100 psi gauge and I have a friend who has just such a gauge at work. Thanks for the feedback!

I'll Add To Troubleshooting List Great idea to add to my list. I think this is going to be a difficult one to isolate and I am certainly open to any/all suggestions. For my year model, where is the relay located? I agree it is something starting to fail. Just hope I can identify the...

The weather here in central Va. has turned nice so I started driving the vette to work a couple of days. No problem with starting in the morning. When I go to leave work in the afternoons, car fires right up and then shuts down in a matter of microseconds. If I try to start it back...

Thanks for the info. Late posting reply, but thanks for the info. I first called Contemporary - they had the part and shipped it directly. After receiving my part, I later got an e-mail reply from Jason. He had the part, would ship it. Jason's price was 1/2 of Contemporary - $50 vs. $25...

I need a power window switch for the passenger side - '90 Coupe. None of my local dealers carry them (apparently they are no longer manufactured). None of the local salvage yards has one either. I checked Mid-America, Ecklers and Zip Products - they don't have either. Would anyone know...

Anyone have a power window switch (passenger side) for a '90 Coupe? I think the switch is the same for both 90 & 91. GM does not make them anymore and my local dealer did a search of other dealers and they have none in stock either. I have not tried some of the typical jobbers or salvage...

E-mail address Thanks for the reply and the offer to help. I would guess maybe the switch has been damaged by water. I am replacing the amp on the passenger side door, and the back of the circuit board shows evidence of getting wet. Possibly water leaked down the passenger side window...

The passenger side power window switch on my '90 coupe quit working. Motor is o.k. as it works when activated from the driver's side switch. Anyone ever have a similiar problem? If not, would anyone know if I have to removed the entire door panel to check the switch/wiring or does the switch...

I know volumes have been written in this Forum regarding problems with Bose system. My problem is a high-pitch whining just started from the front passenger side speaker. First couple of times I heard it, merely turning the radio off/on eliminated the problem, but I knew it would only get...

I am getting ready to flush the cooling system on my '89 before putting it away for the winter. Regarding flushing, I have seen in related posts comments about removing the knock sensor(s) to drain the block. What is the knock sensor and where is/are it/they located? Some vehicles still have...

Thanks to Vettman I. He replied via e-mail and had a couple of the GM stop leak pellets left over. He graciously volunteered to send them to me. I am going to go ahead and flush my system and add the pellets and see what happens or doesn't happen, as the case may be. He mentioned that after...
