Hey Gang.. Normally it's not mine to go for attention, but this one deserves it.. This came as a total surprise to his family (us), the kid can sing (IMHO).. Like it away (on his channel), my nephew Bobby with a cover of "Say Something"... Link to video: Say Something - Music Video Cover by...

:_rock Good job Kane!! Where is the popcorn smiley when you need one.. :) :w Stefan

Kinda with Gerry on that one, i voted Who cares.. Seemed the most fitting of: To each their own. Most of our cars are resto's anyway, after 32 years, there is parts in my car NOT from the factory :ugh:L and the paint job isnt quite what Chevy put on there originally.. (/Sarcasm!).. But in...

MMmhh. K, my 2 Euro Cents: I was pondering why they would restore them and with what? They don't have parts for either that are not 100%. Ie. The parts they would use would not be from the 1Mil or 1.5Mil Car, so whats the point of restoring them at all with parts that really have no business...

Ok, cool.. Thanks for the info Gang.. :thumb I will get some AC Delco R45TSX or AC Delco R46TS (am guessing here at the proper name?) at the local shop, next time i stop in. Just to have in case #4 is fouling again. But i guess i am hearing you loud and clear... ;) Now that the weather is...

Alrighty.. I swapped #4 and after warming her up she idles fine again. So, the IR Gun, pointed at the right spot does the lazy man's trick. Thanks for the suggestion! :upthumbs The plug was completely oily and looked like it had crud on the arc (the bend piece going over the point; sorry don't...

All good tips Guys, much appreciated.. :upthumbs I finally got the IR Gun, had to wait a week as the stores only had a Celsius one, but i knew i would have to report back so i wanted one that can do both C and F and save me the math (Can you tell i am lazy? :L). So, here is the report (Not as...

Hib: Now that you are saying it.. Yeah, an IR Gun should do the trick.. That' awesome. (And i wasn't even thinking Temp Meter = IR Gun, LLC5, but yes).. That sounds like the lazy man's tool i need.. Already asked neighbors, no one has one handy.. As it's Sunday and all shops are closed in...

Bill: Not sure if it doesn't fire at all or it's just fouled. I am thinking fouled up, as the car still runs, but it shakes from side to side. And the "Computer" is trying to correct it and adds RPMs. Am thinking fouled.. :ugh No headers, good ole OEM manifolds. So, ok, I'll unplug the wire...

Hey Gang, am after a fouled spark plug again, but instead of taking each one out and checking it, i wanted to see if there is a smart way of determining the one fouled one. I have changed #5, but no change in the idle issue. I know the symptoms of the fouled plugs, and all wires are ok. Am just...

Hey Chopsticks.. good to see you on here again.. :beer -Stefan

YES! Good Job. Campy Only! :) Since my bike is even older then my car (and me!) I've always had a fascination for the Man. Since getting it back a few years ago to a drivable condition to ride with my daughter, I've learned more about him, and IMO he was a Genius when it comes to engineering...

Looks like i stumped all except Jim.. :D How about another clue? Yes Italian, and the wheel shown were NOT his normal line of business, but wheels of a different kind and their gear was his true passion and glory. ;) -Stefan

Happy Birthday !!! Same here, but all the things i have read, the man is legendary and it would be my honor to just shake his hand. The Man, The Legend, The Library of Corvette Knowledge.. :upthumbs Many Many more to come John. :w Stefan

;LOL But no.. Italian YES (1 point for you) but NOT Enzo.. :thumb C'mon Guys keep that Google-Fu running.. -Stefan

Jim is GOOOD.. Damn i am impressed.. But, we agreed to let you guys see if you can figure this one out. C'mon guys, show us you can.. :chuckle :w -Stefan

Why did i know this? :ugh Ah yes, father of a daughter.. :chuckle Right, let me see, oh yeah. A bit of a mystery for you folks.. I just read a book about him and his absolute fantastic ideas which brought an entire sport into the 20th century (and then into the 21st). Okay, that should be...

For some unknown reason am thinking Miley Cyrus as a kid.. Hope you're feeling better Jim.. :w -Stefan

Just to close this out: Just got the car back. Another 2 years of smiles.. :) He replaced the Master Brake Cylinder, new brake pads out back, repaired the front calipers (they were leaking), swapping tires front to back, replaced oil and filter and adjusted the darn handbrake (The German...

Working in IT i understand where Rob is coming from. It would be a PITA to throw away a month worth of threads/new users/updates to get back the chatter. Kudos to you Rob for keeping this site and making it a home for all of us. A little spring cleaning cant hurt and if it is important then...
