With great thanks to Foggy47, I got the last part of my console refinished, I shouldn't of waited for that past year the finish is hard to matched. Just like trying to mix new paint to match old paint as it's a tad darker, but I think it looks great, which is the most important thing. PS: if...

Welcome and a question ? I hope your recovering well, but do you think a 7 speed is Ok for you ? You suffered a lot of damage to you hips and muscle's ? Considering the traffic situation in California, I would think that the near constant used of a clutch pedal would aggravate you hip injuries...

Well, one article isn't a bible ! Just my $0.02, but I have to think your standing too close to the wall to read the printing on that wall. Right now, General Motors navigators are trying to lean the company itself down, but more importantly to establish itself in markets were they can compete...

Finding the problem ? FWIW, I bought a OBD-II code reader off the auction site for $20.00. It's not fancy, but it works. But as junkie said, without a code or a reader or whatever, nobody can help without knowing where to look. If we lived closer I'd bring the reader up to you to use. These...

Climatic troubles ! Yeah, I thought so when they told me too ! Thank you !

Cold choke ? Ah No ! The techs at the dealership explained to me that this problem has to do with air temperature, The ambient air temperature @ 40 degrees doesn't flow as well and hot air as in summer. They told me the the size of the carbon or dirt build-up was so big that the engine...

Cold temperture woes ? Ok and a big THANK YOU to you Hib, Mikey and Paul. In the beginning, when I bought the car, I started to do some of the light style of work, Compression test (All Cylinders were real close @ 140 PSI) I had a complete tune-up done, there wasn't any work other than that as...

Carbon Build-up ? Ah No. I've added the Chevron Techron over a two year course of time, in conjunction with the use of clean 93 octane fuel. And all of last winter it seemed fine. but about a week ago the temps dipped at night into the low 50's, and when I came out to start it in the morning...

I have huge carbon build-up in the heads from the previous owner of my l-98 using nothing but cheap regular 87 and now I have an engine that won't start if the outside temps are below 50 degrees. The problem is the desist of the air/fuel mixture and it can't get around the carbon buildup and...

Clutch prices ? The prices you state are a little on the high side. But I do know that at the Chevy dealership who does my annual state inspection and now we flushed the cooling system and changed the coolant to new DexCool, and did an Oil filter and oil change, that only cost $330.00. But the...

Automatic shift boot ? Ok, and thank you Froggy47. I think once I have it completely loose it'll show me where and the how of swapping the boot over to the new console. But thank you anyway. Your one of the people who make this site so good ! :w

Front console swap ? I have one more question, how do I undo the automatic shift boot and install on the new front console ? How does the gear shift indicator come off and how's it put back on ? I'm re-using the same shift boot I have ? Thank you ! :w

Corvette and 'Automobile' Magazine ? Oh contraire Catbert my friend. I've been reading "Automobile" magazine for the last 6 years. And once a year, they would have a shootout between a ZO6...

Great Video's ! Hay Thank you Froggy, I save your video's for future use. I knew I had some of that metal tape downstairs and I hunted for two days, But I found it ! Thanks again. :w

Boy these puppies are hard to find. I need a shift boot out of anything so long as it's an automatic and has the collar and shift indicator. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you ! :hb

Road hazzard & paint ? A few years back I accidently ran over a still wet yellow road line, (the township crew painted it and moved the red cones before it was dry). It was all down the drivers side rocker panel and I got out some cardboard to lay down on and I used WD-40 and an old credit card...

Revel ? The space between the front console and the fixed dash. It is very tight and I need to reinstall it so it is as it is now, tight mating spacing. :eyerole

Like it's easy for you Junkie ? If it can be done, you've done it. Well I've already have done the rear portion, like Foggy said it's just the 10mm nuts, and I moved it just backward a few inches, and I'll try to loosen the front shortly, I'll have to figure out how to swap the shifter boot...
