    spindle nut problem,advice?

    I would pull the hub back off. It might be something that is binding up on the axle spline and not letting it torque down properly.

    Flashing "SYS" indicator next to tach

    Do the paperclip thing and check for codes. There are three computers so make sure you are reading the codes correctly.

    Help! steering drastically pulls left once and a blue moon!

    Put it up on a hoist and go over the steering and suspension. Sounds like something is loose somewhere. Tie rod, ball joint, Idler arm etc. You are right you don't need this happening at highway speeds.

    Vette struck by lightning

    I think I'd be shopping for a new ride! You could be chasing electrical problems forever, not to mention the mechanical issues. Your insurance may push for a quick settlement and leave you stuck with problems that don't show up right away. Count your blessings...

    Question: if engine runs real hot does AC shutdown ?

    It is possible for the AC to overheat. If the temperature at the condenser cannot drop enough the system will overheat and not work. If the outside temperature was 109 and you were sitting idleing that is probably what happened. It might be a good idea to check your cooling fans to see if...

    SES Light But No Stored Code???

    How did you check for codes? You might need to check it with a DRB code reader.

    Help! whine coming from differential?

    Go to your Chevy dealer and get a bottle of limited slip additive. It is made special for the corvette. Put it in and do some figure 8's in a parking lot. It costs about 10 bucks...a lot cheaper than tearing the diff down.

    Question: I need some advice!

    :thumbDo the paper clip thing and check for codes. There are several things that can cause the lights. Invest in a service manual, you will be glad you did. Oh yea, It is probably not running anywhere near its full potential. Disconnect your negative battery cable and clean your grounds...

    Brake pedal is hard before starting

    The check valve is the little plastic coupler that the vacuum line plugs into on the booster. You can get a new one at the HELPS counter at most auto part stores. Remove it and try to blow through it from the manifold side. It should not allow any passage in that direction.

    Brake pedal is hard before starting

    Brakes work fine once the car is running. I figured out where the check valve is...Duh! That is the first thing I suspect.

    Brake pedal is hard before starting

    On my 1992 LT1 the brake pedal is hard to depress before starting. The vacuum is obviously leaking down as the car sits. My question is, Is there a check valve that could be going bad or do I have to replace the whole brake booster? Thanks, Tom

    Help! 1991 L98 runs fine cold dies out

    Switch your temp gage to didital and watch it. See if you can detect when the thermostat is opening. The temp should climb till it opens then dip. If the thermostat is stuck the temp will continue to climb...You can't always trust the analog gages.

    C4 targa top mounting

    The cone I am referring to is what you are calling the mounting nut. It is cone shaped. Your issue is exactly the same as mine was. The top that you bought from Ebay is not original equiptment on a 1992. You are right about moving the nut over. First you have to make the cone shaped nut so...
