    Hose Identification Please!

    I do hope you don't have to much problem finding a replacement. OEM hoses are near impossible to find. You may have to replace the metal pipe with hose.Good luck.

    clean the pallet on the key and the cyl. lock with electronic cleaner. They have to make an electrical connection. I have had my 90 for 10 yrs and have had this problem twice.

    I need help, you make money

    one thing I noticed wasn't mentioned. Be very sure to have ALL oil cleaned from the china wall and intake where the RTV makes contact. Any oil at all and it will leak.Use something like brake parts cleaner which leaves no residue. Other than that I think 85RedSled did a great job of covering...

    I need help, you make money

    digital camera works great , take pictures before you start , take many as you go along. have a laptop close by with the pictures when you reassemble .The order you install lines etc is important to be able to get them where they belong.

    does anyone have a few pictures of the spare tire and the spare tire cover

    You don't say but sounds like you have some kind of problem. First time I had mine down it ended up to low when I put it back. The front has a second catch so your flat will fit in it but it hangs that much lower. Don't remember but I think the back also has something similar. I may have a...

    is some noise normal when clutch is released

    Did you guys notice that the original thread is from 2001. I have a 90 and a few yrs ago my clutch went out. The cause seems to have been the seal leaking lube from the flywheel causing it to slip and eventually burn the clutch. I replaced the clutch and the flywheel. Before I did this I had a...

    Front brake pad decision

    I like the ceramics, no dirty wheels from them. They do work better warmed up and have to be careful if they get wet when they are cold, first time you brake they don't hold as well. Never tried the kevlar

    radiator

    I did a search for each yr on Amazon , came up with two diff radiators. The 88 has a fill neck , looks as though the 91 does not. looked up my 90 and it shows one with a fill neck,which don't seem right to me cause there is a tank on the firewall with a fill cap.

    News: Collapse at National Corvette Museum sends cars into sinkhole

    How long was it undermined ? I can't help but wonder how long the hole was there before the floor gave away. I don't think this just happened,look at the size of the footings , they could have supported a lot of weight for awhile.

    Shinoda start

    I agree on the steel flywheel. The aluminum would wind up quicker but the steel will make it much nicer to drive. If you have ever handle a Dual Mass flywheel you will understand what makes the L98 with the ZF so easy to start smoothly with. If all you did was 1/4 mile I would say aluminum,for...

    Public apology to person who told me Fram was junk

    your oil filter shouldn't be that tight that you need a wrench to take it off . BTW look inside at the cage in an AC Delco oil filter... plastic. friend had one break apart on his dirt track sprint car, nearly lost an engine. I have gone to Purolator oil filters.

    Dual Mass Flywheel, Solutions and Options Survey

    A few yrs ago I bought a new DM flywheel for my 90.It came with pins to put in the matching holes around the outside of the flywheel.If I remember right it came with pins in it also and they matched up with the pins location in my old flywheel. Don't know if I just got lucky or if most are...

    84 vet AC "evaporator"

    I would recommend NOT to use the compatible replacement. No shop will touch your system once you have that in it. It will contaminate their equipment.

    Gordon Killebrew accident

    Might be what I am thinking of. Touch the blade with a hot dog and it don't break the skin.
