    C-4 Plenum Screw Removal?

    Yes, if you have the cut away style rear plenum cover you can just pull the distributor up and out. There are two styles.

    Air Cleaner Duct

    Try pulling up as you loosen to help keep the from spinning on you. Worse case I would break the knobs right off, then replace them. The air box is more expensive than the knobs. http://www.madvet.com/shop?frame=3.135.746

    Convertible top

    I don't know how different a '92 is, but on my '86 there is an adjustment sleeve that you turn to get it to latch/unlatch properly.

    Vette wouldn't start

    The problem you describe is indicative of an intermittent VATS (Vehicle Anti Theft System) issue. It's very common. A good way to fix this issue is to first get a hold of an 86 GM Shop Manual and a digital multi meter. Once you have that, you'll find there are excellent troubleshooting charts...

    I'm looking for a special distributer cap called the crossfire

    Crossfire manufacturing went out of business from what I remember when I was looking for such a cap. Try calling the number. Doesn't work. I pesonally contacted the Mr. Madson himself about where to get a Madson cap. He told me he sold the business and they no longer make them.

    brake pedal came back up, heard werid noise?

    The light should not be coming back on after it turns off when you start the car. You got a problem in the ABS system. When you start the car, and roll up to 4MPH with your foot on the brake pedal, you should hear the ABS Pump/Modulator Valve prime, and feel the brake pedal pulsate at the same...

    Roxi lives! I'm a retard!!!

    Your talking about the long tube collector gasket right? That upper bolt is just simply a PITA. What I do is get a combination end wrench on the nut that is towards the rear of the car by feel, then use an extension and a flex joint to loosen the other end of it. The combo wrench automaticaly...

    Engine Rattle

    Theres a long torx head bolt that helps fasten the AC compresor to the cylinder head. It's hidden below the AC pulley. I left mine out cause it was a major PITA to remove and install to pull the head off. Ever since, I get the same vibration that you are describing. When I set my hand on the AC...

    check valve question

    The way to check the PCV Valve (on valve cover), is to pull it out of the grommet and place your finger on the bottom of it when you have the motor running. It should apply vaccum to your finger. Also when you shake it, you should hear the internal valve rattle around meaning it is not stuck.
