    Tire Pressure Fluctuations

    You will be ok, it's normal. Keep in in mind that 10*F equals about 1lb air pressure, up or down, which is why you should always set tire pressures when the tires are cold. As you drive the tire temp's will increase and so will the air pressure. Up or down 1-2 psi from factory recommendations...

    Help! coolant leak

    How many miles in those 2 weeks? That is a lot of coolant to lose. No coolant on the ground or on the engine? If it hasn't been on a hoist, do it and inspect closely. If you see anything, follow it to the top of the fluid leak. If you think it is internal, have a cylinder leak down...

    Washing. How much is too much?

    Your not doing anything wrong, and you won't ruin your paint. But keep in mind that every time you touch the clear coat (not paint) it will leave a little bit of scuff behind on the clear coat. You may not even see it but it is there, and can be polished out when needed.

    Underbody wash??

    General rule to follow: Do no use anything more powerful than a garden hose to clean your vehicle. You do NOT want to force H2O into areas that it should not be.

    Help! 2012 Grand Sport tire problem

    I always keep soapy water (dawn) in a spray bottle, and spray the valve stem after checking or adding air. Glad you found it.

    Glad to finally be here. What do ya'll think of my first Corvette C5?

    You could lose value with any aftermarket addition, just keep all your OEM parts and make sure that the aftermarket installation (what ever the part) does not interfere with putting the OEM part back on by you or the next buyer. Aftermarket stereos are easy to steal and sell by thieves...

    Glad to finally be here. What do ya'll think of my first Corvette C5?

    Don't worry about a Fiesta resting in peace, they were born dead. Looks like a nice stock C5, getting a lttle hard to find. Enjoy the ride.

    Help! 1990 ZR1 intermitant starter problems

    As with any electrical problem, have the battery properly load tested with a carbon pile load tester, battery cables clean and tight (no twisting), and ground cable to engine. Once these are proven good, further diagnosis can proceed if needed. Always start with the basics so you can trust any...

    Question: manual shifters

    I'm pretty sure that all C5 and C6 shifters are the same. What is wrong with yours?

    Mx5 Miata / Vette

    Sorry, not one of those guys. If you want a Harley or a Vette (or I guess a Miata?) then buy one, don't buy a wannabe. JMHO. No flame to the OP intended.

    Need some sage advice...

    Honestly, no one on a forum can answer that question, pictures or not, there are way too many variables involved. You will need a professional appraisal done by someone who is certified to do so on that vehicle.

    1996 LT4 Temp sensor

    I don't know C4's real well, but I do know that your digital reading's are normal and that the ECU is controlling the digital numbers, so your engine should be fine. If there isn't a separate sender for your analog gauge, then your wiring or dash unit is suspect.

    Blue Bullet Blog-The C6 Ownership Experience

    I really like the look of the intake manifold, coils, and wires, very cool. If it makes you feel any better, I just read in Car and Driver that the flat plane crankshaft "Voodoo" engine in the Mustang is ok'd by FoMoCo to use up to 1qt every 500 miles under "severe" use. Not in my $60K Mustang...
