Just got out from under the car. Looking from the frt. to the rear. There is the main pos. wire and about .75in above that there's another post. Is this the post that I connect the black remote starter wire? The set-up in/on the starter is alot different than I remember it, a heck of alot more...

Ididn't get to work on the car on Thur. because of rain. I bought a remote starter and tried to hook it up this AM. I've jacked the car up and noticed a brkt. mounted to the oil pan with spme wires connected to a harness. I'm assuming that I need to drop the brkt. To get access to the starter...

96 No start I've checked all the fuzes and found a bad fuse for the horn. I replaced that. When I turn the ign.sw., the under hood lights stay bright, so I would assume no draw on the battery. On the dash the "brake pressure" light goes off. Everything else remainms the same. The car sits...

HELP! After reading the articles about the VATS system, I thought for sure that was my problem. I took apart the connector and plugged the ohm meter into the key side of the plug and a correct reading of 4720 ohms with the key in the ignition. I already replaced the ign. sw. on the steering...

Vats Got a call from a Vette owner and he said it may not be a VATS isuue at all. He suggested that I check the wires on the starter solenoid for corrosion. I hope to try that this weekend, weather permitting. Again thanks for your help, MiMitch

Vats ? Thanks for the help. The ignition switch that I replaced was the one on the lower steering column. Like I stated, when I turn the key nothing happens. No noise from the starter or any-where else. The only thing that comes on is a "brake pressure" warning light, that I've never noticed...

VATS I have a '96 vette that I just replaced the ignition switch. When I turn the key nothing happens at all. The only thing that appears that I hadn't notice before was a "brake sys. pressure' light appears. Is this an indication that the VATS sys. is not working. Thanks for any help.

Fuel filter/pressure problem Well, I finally got the new filter and a new fuel pump in the car and it started right up.I did have a bit of a problem with the small bracket that holds up the bottom of the pump. The two SMALL spot welds broke and I had to have a friend weld the bracket to an...

Fuel filter/pump problem I probably will be tackling the fuel pump next. I finally did get the filter off and gave a brief discription of how I (we) did it. Again I would like to thank everyone for all the advice and support given to me.With everyone's suggestions and ideas I was able to...

Fuel filter/pump problem While checking my e-mail I had a reply from my sister of all people. She knew I was having a problem wirh the filter and sent me a link to another site.Well I read the replies and it was a very simple solution.I dis-connected the lower fuel line fitting. I cut down a...

fuel filter/oump problem Over the last few days I've spent over an hour trying to remove the d___ fuel filter. I've loosened and removed all the clips that I could see from the engine compartment and all along the frame rail. I still can't get to the upper fitting to loosen it. I've tried using...

Fuel filter/pump problem I didn't get a chance to work on the Vette yesterday or today. I did take a look and saw the retainers for the fuel lines under the car along the frame. I did feel a screw that holds the filter to the frame. I hope to work on the Vette Fri. evening and Sat. ,early...

Fuel filter/pump problem. Ever time I try to reply it says that I'm not logged in, yet I can access everything. Oh well, such is life. Thanks everyone for your help. I'll try to get to the fuel filter later when the sun goes down a little. Is the gromet, in the engine compartment, where the...

Fuel filter/pressure problem That was one of the first things that I did. That, and I made sure there was gas in the tank. It was half full and no bad fuses. Is it possible to check the current to the fuel pump without me blowing myself and the car up? Thanks for the help, MiMitch

Fuel filter/pressure problem 3rd. attempt in trying to repl. Obviously, me and computers don't see eye to eyeon how they should work. Again, happy 4th of July to everyone. My fuel filter is mounted to the frame (?) rail where it curves up and towards the engine. Clearance for the tire.Directly...

Thanks for all the input. I loosened the in-let side of fuel line from the filter. I then turned the key to the run position. There was no fuel leakage near the fitting or ony evidence of any fuel. So I'm assuming it has to be the pump. Getting back to the filter. Does anyone have any...

My 96 won't start. I tried to release the pressure at the fuel rail and nothing happened.I did this within 60 seconds after turning the ignition to the run position,I assumed that since there was no pressure at the fuel rail, either the filter or pump was bad.The Vette has 175K on it and I have...

Thanks to all that replied. I have learned to disregard the analog gage and to view the digital gage when needed. Have a safe and happy New Year, MiMitch

I have a '96 Vette with both an analog & digital temp. gauge. The trouble is that they both don't agree. The digital reads about 25 degrees cooler than the analog. Which one do I believe? The oil temperature gage, both analog & digital read approx. the same. Why the difference with the water...
