I did it 3-4 months ago. Still holding perfectly. I used good tape on the underside. It was not thin and worked as a charm. I do not think you need to replace it. Just clean and put new tape.
I’m now a member of the flying roof club. Our C4 had a black (transparent) top. I bought a red top to replace the destroyed top. Should paint it black or white? Any one with white vette and white top pics?
Ok good. I want to have my fans reprograms to lower temps also. I bought the tranny cooler but did not installed it yet. I destroy the tranny at track (road race). Temp went above 285 several times. Tranny is at the shop. I should get it this afternoon then start to put it back to gether.
Ok...
Thanks. Yes, this is pet-cock style. It does not come all the way out. It should turn ¼ of a turn then move backward a bit to allow the coolant to leak. First time, it turned, but it did not move backward. I used a small screw driver to pull on it. It may be fine for you so you do not have to...
Yes. you got it. But this is not Allen key. You need a 1/4 ratchet extension. Do not turn more than 1/4 of a turn or you will break it. Actually you will feel when it is to his maximum, but a lot of people continue turning an they break the plug. I had to use a small screw driver to pull it out...
I copied the procedure from the manual on my web site. Click on the link below and scroll down to ‘Water Pump’.

You can also remove the hose at the throttle body.
Fans have 2 speeds. Low and high speed. The PCM command low speed fans ON at 226 and OFF at...
Welcome. That was my first mod. I know it does not work for the recent vette, but it may work on your 99. I removed the BCMI 3 minifuse # 22 from the IPEC (instrument panel electrical center)located at the right of the BCM. Parking light are still controlled by the DRL. I need to turn the switch...
Even if you get the lock plate removed, that does not mean it will work. If the BCM does not get the appropriate signal (+12 volts), it will believe that the lock pin is not retracted and cut off the fuel.
Shaking the wheel did not worked for me. You need to remove the ignition key, turn the...
If it reads 80 psi ignition on and engin off, you have a bad sensor. There are several DIY on the subject. If you want to know what is involved, go on my web site and scroll down to "Remove Instake Manifold".
Yes. That was one of the first thing to check; make sure they were torque to 11lbs. C5 computers are very sensitive to voltage.
I had loose cable at battery terminal on my C4 and the voltage was going any where from 15.5 to 12 volts and the dash light was flickering.
great you had the...
I read some problem with the alternator. If I recall correctly, there was a bad connection to the alternator body, but I'm really not sure. My alternator always stays above 13 volts on both of my vettes.
Yes. this is not too easy. The door side is easier to remove than the car side. You can try to heat the accordian with an hair dryer to make it softer.
To be more precise, that process work on early C5. It worked on my 97 when I bought a new fob. It also work on newer C5.
This is strange. But well, I'm not supprised of anything with the electronic. Could be the hatch button on the fob that is damage or making bad contact. I do not think it...
Well, I hope the pcm was not affected by the leak. Anyway, you can program the new fob with the DIC. I dit it myself.
1-Turn the ignition to RUN
2-Turn the radio off
3-Press the RESET button in order to clear any IPC warning messages
4-Press the Option button on the DIC until the IPC display...
GM says that the spark plugs are good for 100,000 miles. I changed the plug and wire on my 97 at 80k and did not see a big difference. My friend has a 2002 Z06 with 32k miles. The car was not running good between 4,000 and 6,000. I changed the plug and wires. He now says that the car runs...
The information is used to calculate three things :
1- the front wheels position when centered.
2- The front wheels position when turning.
3- The rate at which the steering wheel is turning.
The EBTCM (Electronic Brake Traction Control Module) uses the digital input from the steering wheel...
