    Air Pressure

    TSB for air pressure I've been searching the web all night for that TSB. Could you please supply a link since there seems to be a debate going on here. Thanks!

    Air Pressure

    Tom - I already have one sports car that rides like a hard tail. I was hoping the vette would have a more "gentlemanly" ride':L

    Radar detector...which one??

    I use the Solo One (or is it 2) from Escort. It's cordless and easy to move from car to car. I'm happy with it.

    u joints

    Vibration and no horn Again. u joints all look perfect although the trobleshooting section of my Haynes manual describes my symptom as a bad u joint. It seems like the play (very tiny bit, but some, perhaps 1 mm) is coming from the yoke going in the back of the transmission. Again it's not...

    Noise when accelerating

    Good call 3Dale1. What's a c beam? I think, due to a small amount of play where the drive shaft leaves the transmission, it's rubbing that guard (C beam?) that runs along the drive shaft. I was going to check it my removing it and adding a washer under each mounting bolt (4) thus giving me an...

    WTB cosmetic items (interior)

    I need a set of VISORS (Black or red), a RED CONSOLE BOX LID) and a AUTO GEAR SHIFT KNOB if anybody has a parts car. REAR TRIM is also needed but due to its fragil nature, I'll probably have to go new on that. There is something called a CONNECTOR THAT IS an L shaped PVC valve (without the...

    Corvette Club

    Finally found a local Corvette Club. Shennandoah Vally Corvette Club (SVCC). The meet once a month (in winter) in Boyse near Berryville VA. If anyone is interested their next meeting is March 3 at 5pm at the Lone Oak restraunt. They do a lot of Charity rides. Probably a little more laid...

    Lowering

    I did what JEFNSLA did. Moved nuts to lowest position and drilled new holes (ouch) for cottor pins. Lowered almost an inch. I'm happy with that. Thanks guys!

    Noise when accelerating

    Originally I thought I had a bad u joint but they all checked out. My noise, a thumping under acceleration occurs only when there is a load on the drive train. If I either let off the throttle or downshift it goes away. A fellow Corvete owner said it's probably the exhaust rubbing one of the...

    Air Pressure

    Rides great on smooth roads, but on gravel or rough road forget it. I might as well be in an old dump truck. Guess I'm just spoiled. 35# seems to be the number.

    Air Pressure

    Thanks! That's what I thought it was but it rides like a truck (except for the squeaky fiberglass).

    Another Horn Problem

    Help Thanks Brimis! I don't think putting it back together is going to make it work. Probably a relay or the horn itself. But the less work my friend does to get it going, the less he'll charge me (he's not THAT good of a friend, just a friend of a friend). I have the cap in hand with the...

    Chassis lubrication (bushings)

    Thanks Robertway! Took my styrafoam cups to the store with be. Found and "passed" on a couple "bad" silicones, then I bought "Liquid Wrench Silicone" and did all my dry bushings.

    Another Horn Problem

    Found all the horn parts in the console. Can't make it work so it will get looked at by someone in the know. Guess I'll find out how it goes in the snow.

    u joints

    Yes I believe there's a little side to side play in the yoke where the drive shaft leaves the transmission, but it dosen't leak, just gives me a little rumble at a certain speed, ussually when accelerating. Big Job? Naw...Just pulling the exhaust... might as will change that too. Could use...
