Great. :upthumbs Come on over. PMing you my address and cell phone number.

Just south of downtown. Iowa and Broadway. Why?

What started out as feeling a pulsing of the brake peddle as I came to a complete stop is now a definite clunk, clunk, clunk. So I don't think it is a rotor runout issue any more. Wheel bearing? U joint? Put it up on stands and push/pull on the wheel? Look around under the back? ;help...

Braking I agree with C4Cruiser as far as the need for DOT 4. My experience with autocross ( one day ) is that you use your brakes minimally. In fact , the pro who walked us around the track made the statement that we should use our brakes as little as possible. The brakes slow down the car...

I beleive Vetteracer is correct. On the first C4s, there was a brass gear instead of the nylon bushings. This gear is avaialble in the catalogues. The repairs should be similar. Can anyone else confirm? ;shrug

Relax, Speed Paul (C4C5 specialist) is a highly valued and well respected member of the CAC. He has been a speaker at Cruisefests and while there has been known to "participate in" (read perform) parking lot repairs for Cruisefesters. I have met Paul and can guarantee you that there was no...

Best Three Things About Being a Teacher? June, July and August!:D

Sweet! Tom, you do good work. :upthumbs Why did you use the early C-4 emblem instead of the one on your 94?

Don't Worry Don't worry about the Corvette smile. The condition is chronic but not terminal!:D

Hey Mile Hi Brother! :w Hi Joe. Congrats on the new C4. :upthumbs 90 is my favorite year. L98 with analog dash. Whereabouts in Denver are you? I live south central. Platt Park. Be glad to get togeher with you to talk Vettes and show you some of the things I have done to mine. No mods...

Don't Care! Ain't Sellin'! I Love My Vette! :D It is a reward for hard work. I waited for years. When my kids were younger I bought a 1970 Malibu convertible. It was a compromise from a Vette because it would hold all five of us. I wrenched on that thing for ten years and then two...

Learning Curve - A New Thread? Went out last Saturday night for a little Corvette therapy and ran my detector. There is a section in the manual about " interpretation" of alerts and I can see why. It probably alerted 10 times in 100 miles. Six of those times I saw the LEO responsible but was...

Tick Mark One more " Thumbs Up " for thepartsladi!:upthumbs Oh, and I like vette2vette.com for used stuff.

Uuhh. Swapped wires? ;shrug I assume that the one which was left in the car works correctly? Not sure what was rebulit. Did they actually install a new drive motor? If so, THEY may have switched the wires, not you. :D

Bill - WAY Cool! One day you can pass on the Vette to Zach and he can take it over 500K miles!:W Tom - Oh Well. ;shrug Now you can drive her with more confidence. :upthumbs

A Beltronics Review Just purchased the Beltronics 65 as reviewed on Radarbusters. Bought it for a trip to Kentucky around Memeorial day. I've never used one but if the thread is still around when the trip is over I'll post a review from a novice.

Pre-emptive Purchase? Tom. Did the infamous water pump failure ruining the Opti happen to you or are you doing a pre-emptive swap?

Sometimes we get lucky Hi Bill. Last spring, my baby developed a noise that I eventually determined was the bearing going out on the water pump. The weekend after I went on an 80 mile fun run up 285, I pulled her out of the garage and parked out on the street so I could use the garage to...

Congrats! Way to go, Cool! :cool Hope you drew no blood. This job appears to be quite an accomplishment. You should take pride in a job well done. Then, do some math with the time it took you divided by 2, times the shop rate of your mechanic. That should put a smile on your face.:D

Congrats! Same for me last week. Short trip. Just eneough to run through a couple of my favorite CDs. Hadn't had her out of the garage since before Christmas. :W I don't know how the guys & gals in the north country can go all winter without these " therapy sessions".
