    Clutch Adjustment?

    I have a '96 6-speed and the clutch grabs a lot higher than I like and finishes very close the top of the pedal travel. I would like to move the engage point much lower in the pedal travel. Is this possible? My reading so far identifies it as a hydraulic clutch and the shop manual tells you...

    Feedback Through the Brake Pedal

    Here's another brake question. My brakes work okay, but I get feedback through the pedal at slow speeds where the pedal moves up and down a little, in what seems the same speed as the tires are rotating. It feels like something is worn unevenly. I'm not even sure if you can get this kind of...

    air conditioning only blows on feet

    I had that problem and was told that the default airflow is feet and windshield, so something in the vacuum system was not working. The shop it was at checked to see if it was something simple (like a hose unplugged or something similar) and all was connected. They bypassed the control module...

    Need some opinions on C4's please...

    C4 I have a '96 LT4. This engine is only available with a manual 6-speed, so transmission preference is something you should plug into your considerations. The LT4 is smooth at low speeds and has a lot of torque. It also can really fly in full throttle. There isn't much on the road that can...

    Rims and LTPWS

    I checked AFS Wheels online. They have ZR1 and Z06 options. I like the ZR1's with the chrome finish. Four wheels are $1500. I don't need tires, but if you get the wheel and tire option, you can get either Dunlop or Kumho tires that are mounted, balanced and shipped free for only an additional...

    Rims and LTPWS

    You are correct, of course. My car, though, came with the "spare tire delete" option. So that makes the run-flat tires almost a necessity.

    Rims and LTPWS

    The tires are the "run flat" GMT's from Goodyear. The front tires are new and the back look like they have less than 10,000 on them. They are in good shape. While I was in National Tire and Battery, we checked for broken cords or other tire problems, but that was not a problem. On the two front...

    Drive C4 year round?

    The 96 LT4 Convertable I just bought has around 98,000 all year mileage on it and the car is in great condition with no obvious deterioration anywhere. It certainly had to spend a lot of time on the road. I had a '73 four speed, which was the first year with radial tires and with the...

    Rims and LTPWS

    I bought my LT4 convertible last month and had to fix a few things. One was a LTPWS sensor in the right fron wheel and the right rear rim was slightly bent, pulling the tire enough out of round to cause an out of balance type bounce at highway speeds. The sensor was fixed (expensive), but the...

    1st to 4th

    Thanks for the information. I jumped over to Ecklers right away and bought it.

    6speed unplug 1st to 4th plug

    I asked this same question in another thread and was referred to Ecklers by another user for a cags plug seal (www.ecklers.com). If you go there and search "cags", there are several versions. One for 89-95, one for 96 and one for 97 to 04. This plug seals the connection but also makes the...

    1st to 4th

    I have had my 96 LT4 for several weeks now and I find the requirement to shift from 1st to 4th a real distraction. The system wants to force this shift at too slow a speed, which brings about a clumsy shift to 4th then back to 2d. I am getting used to staying in 1st past the 17 mph limit or when...

    61/62 what is a fair price

    62 Fuel Injected Convertible with Hardtop The last 62 I saw was for around $85,000. Red inside and out with hardtop. Like new in and out. You can buy it at Fast Lane Classic Cars in St. Charles, MO. They had a white convertible with just the rag top, 250 hp with 4 speed. I think that sold for...

    Anyone leave the spare tire at home?

    My 96 came without a spare from the factory and has the beam described in one of the responses. My tires are those you can drive on when flat (advertised as up to 200 miles), so I feel confident I can get to a repair place if needed. The bad news is that the tire may need to be replaced if you...
