Be a great idea to replace the U-joints concurrently with the half-shaft removal. Also, don't go cheap on replacement bearings. Even the so-called top brand bearings can arrive, new-in-box with excessive play. That search is NOT fun as you may read. I believe it is NOT recommended to run the...

I was over-thinking this, I now believe, and have R/R'ed the SuperRam 3-4 time; lost track, but I am getting damn good at it! I four the spliced 4-wire leads to the injectors tape wraps had deteriorated. they looked okay, but upon touch... well, I redid them, checked for shorts as before...

My taste is for a cleaner design and the new car is loaded with thises and thats, atop the rear which IMO, was not better in person than in photos. There is elegance in simple lines, as on the C6 (and many airplanes). That may be why I like (and own) a Shinoda-bodied C4. Our favorite marque...

shipped.. enjoy.:w

Great Corvette day Nice collection of Corvettes and owners/drivers. Due to a last minute FI issue in my car, Roy drove his nice, yellow '84. I really wanted to see Guldstrand and the C7; wanted to like it despite the photos. I don't. Gosh, four or five '55 V8s? Very cool showing as was the...

Correct, 1990Camaro ECM (not in weather pack) that's true and I finally crawled inside and removed the multi-pin connector and both INJ 1 & 2 fuses for the resistance readings. An obstacle was, the pin layout for the Corvette and Camaro ECMs are not identical and it was vital to find INJ1 pin...

C'mon down Hot Rod Roy and I are driving up in my car. Hope to see some of you there, for the lie-telling session! :eyerole :w

The CE light was not an issue (Code 44- O2 sensor) and the car runs just as scary as ever, tho the hot start problem has recurred. Last evening, it died on me as I arrived to an audience of pals (of course), but the car started well after sitting and cooling off. I reasoned that the oxy sensor...

Seems you covered all the bases but the one that was the issue. You need to find that gasoline leak, causing the odor, which can be a bugger. No puddling anywhere on the intake? This is what I recommended to my mom for her Caddy, but I did it 'cause I thought the injectors may have been dirty...

round, great condition. $100, shipped (to USA). I get a good discount for overseas FedEx. PM me.

Z51 set? I have the (staggered) '84 Z51 w/ gatorbacks sitting in the garage waiting for someone. My fear is the shipping cost makes them too expensive. Besides, I hear that you only want tires.

that, there's funny, no matter who ya are. However, the drop in average caddy buyer age has surprised me, given GM and its seemingly well-entrenched politics overriding 'proper' marketing to customers' choices.

Surely round tail lights can be vented! I prefer the round redo, evenly mounted, not the Nissan-looking, vertically staggered. Perhaps not as edgy, but one could make a marketing case for them, given the retro craze (even if it is fading) or a nod to tradition of, and continuity from, past...

Talking to mee-self here......... Just in case it helps someone: Pulled the harness-side pin from the ECM, then checked that it was continuous (.04ohms, actually) to the left rail and not shorted to ground. Reconnected the ECM with that pin still extricated, installed a NID light in #1...

Consider where the temp probes are located, as the water temp in different places varies plenty. # 7 gets the coolant last and the temp drop across the radiator is easily 20*, +/-. :w

please...... Borrowed a noid kit from O'Reilly and #1 & #3 show no trigger; not a huge surprise, really. #5 and #7 cannot be accessed, but I doubt the indication would differ. #8 blinks, showing the test bulb as operational while verifying the right side's higher exhaust temperatures. I got...

Front- :thumb Rear- :cry

anyone home? Okay, I smell like exhaust again! Got the wife's project car running well, so I did more research and then some Corvette checking. The car runs, tho not real well. I think some of that is remapping the fuel tables with the redone injectors, and it has improved overall, but...

I like the O/D and know, from years here, that many decry the unit. I was told, way back when, that: 1) there is little one can do to toughen it, and 2) it is a good unit and can handle plenty of power. It has, in my case. Also, it does require maintenance, including the filter the the AT...

Did this and used their recommendation for revalving. The car rides very well, much better than stock with no loss of handling prowess. SUPERB! :w
