    91 corvette cranks but won’t start! Please help

    Well, my first thought is you gotta get that thing towed to a shop that knows C4s. They'll get it running, maybe for less $$ than you are throwing at it.

    Question: c6 exhaust filler panel

    Rear Filler Panel Sorry I misunderstood. The installation was one of the easiest add-ons to do. I lucked out in that the seller "threw in" the filler panel when I bought the Corsa Extreme Catback exhaust. Even with those huge pipes the filler slipped right over the ends of the pipes. The...

    Question: c6 exhaust filler panel

    It doesn't "work", it's just there to look cool. Mine is highly polished stainless with a 426 HP emblem

    News: notice from gm

    I Still Have Time! I received my letter too but I know when my '07 was placed in service and this warranty work expires for me in May 2017. I still have time. Thing is mine is not leaking yet but I have a bad fuel check valve in my fuel pump and need to get the pump replaced this week to the...

    Site Update: 2015 C7 Corvette Z06 and C7.R Press Materials, Specs, etc

    Yeah, kind of a weak reveal. Shame on the marketing staff for not cleaning the thing up, scuffs and all. Well, maybe they wanted it to look like it just came off the track.

    Question: 95 C4 Hatch Corner Drainage

    I have a '95. I use an electric leaf blower to dry the car whenever I can. It is especially efficient getting the water out from around the rear window channel. Also leaves the car pretty spotless too.

    MotorWeek on Velocity

    Yeah, I know the owner of the test Callaway too. He's in our Vette Set Club. I was just talking with him about it last week at our annual Christmas get-together. I questioned Jeff as to whether that car test documentation would help or hinder with resell. :L

    C5, C6, and C47

    Thanks for the heads up and photos. I am also an aircraft fan. I volunteer at the National Museum of the USAF. I hear it is the larges AC museum in the world, but most of our AC are no longer air worthy, except for the B-1 here. Nice photo of the cars and especially of the Dakota! This Fantasy...

    Exhaust Pipe Weld Became 'Unwelded'...?

    In our Vette club we've had a couple of C5's with the same problem. One was a '98 for sure and the other was an '03, I think. Re-weld?... certainly. Probably a bad weld. Seems like this would be kind of rare for stainless.

    C7 Rear “Camaro-esque”Design Poll

    Uh, that would be C6, not CV. Where is my proof-reader!?

    C7 Rear “Camaro-esque”Design Poll

    I hope this does not offend those who like the Caramo tail light upgrade. I guess there is an _ss for every seat huh?! If the Camaro-esque rear lights is a "done deal", then I'm done looking. :rotfl My wife and I passed on the C5 because of the _ss design (please, no offense intended) and I...

    Question: Leaky valve seals ?

    Generally, additives do not work for just any old problem, however, I had a similar problem with my '95 at about 30,000 miles, but it was not every morning; just sporadically and only on a hot start, never on a cold start. Anyway, in money-saving desperation I reverted to my old pal Marvel...

    Help with Nav System

    I notice you have a 2006. I have a 2007. The latest set of discs I have is version 5.0. I believe they may be up to 9c now. Anyway, I have a 2-disc set, however, both cover the US, but disc one covers W Canada and the other covers E Canada. My system works with either disc. Of course I do not...

    Help! Opti Testing??

    I've had two bad opti-sparks (distributor) in 52,000 miles. Each time I got a Check Engine light. Code set too but I can't remember what it was. Maybe someone chime in with the probable code. First time leaky water pump took out opti at 15,000 miles! GM replaced opti but forgot to change the...

    Help! Opti Testing??

    1. Check for hard codes and let us know what is reported. On my '95 I can pull those codes right on the dash without using any fancy reader tools. If you do not have that capability, go to Autozone and ask them to check for you. 2. Check your water pump weep hole to see if there are signs of a...

    Winter storage oil

    Oh, and don't forget to change the filter! :)

    Winter storage oil

    It is not logical that you would put new non-synthetic oil in you car just to store over Winter. After all, it's just going to sit in the bottom of the oil pan. Now, when you drain that unused oil in the Spring and do your synthetic oil change, what are you saving? Where does your unused new...
