    Service LTPWS lamp

    Thanks for the info. I'm going to leave the sensors in the sawblades along with the EMTs. I'll just put different tire on the other wheels.

    Service LTPWS lamp

    Can anyone describe the procedure for removing the Service LTPWS light bulb? I want to install AFS ZR-1 wheels with non-run flat tires and I'd rather not see that warning light all the time. Thanks, JCS44 96 LT4 Vert, Blk/Blk

    Garage Car Cover - wordy

    Unfortunately my wife is a cat lover and we have three outdoor cat (with claws) that stay in the garage at night and come and go thru one of those little door thingys. So I gotta deal with car covers.

    Garage Car Cover - wordy

    How many of you keep your car not only in a garage, but also under a car cover as well? I keep my black LT4 vert under TWO car covers in the garage. Why? The answer is @#$%! cats! Cats love to sit on cars, walk on cars, and look out the window from the car. They leave dirty little paw...

    battery or alternator

    Here's another thing to keep in mind as I had a similar problem on my old 95 LT1. If your battery has drained down, which it will if you don't drive it much, you need to recharge it fully. Driving around with a low battery won't really bring it back to full charge - the alternator is designed...

    K&N Swap into Vette

    I transferred my K&N from one vette with the strips installed to another without. As I recall it fits fine either way. Neither had the cut lid. JCS44

    psi goodyear f1's

    I tend to agree with the others. My LT4 has the Goodyear EMTs (run flats) and I keep them between 33 and 35 psi. JCS44, blk/blk/blk vert

    Fuzion Zr1 Tires

    Have any of you had any experience with this tire on a Vette? They're as inexpensive as Kumhos and the reviews on Tire Rack are quite good. Thanks, John Black LT4 Vert

    LT4 Newbie w/ Black LT4 !

    Welcome to the gang! I have a Black LT4 convertible with black interior and black top. Great looks and ride. I have a question for you. You mentioned putting on ZR-1 wheels. Does your car have the LTPWS? If yes, do your new wheels have the LTPWS sensors installed? If the car has the LTPWS...

    Engine Temp/ Wheels want to buy.

    Remember that the first fan should be coming on at about 228 and both should be on about 235. And, cleaning the front of that radiator is a very good piece of advice. C4's are like vacumn cleaners when it comes to picking up leaves and plastic bags.

    Ltpws

    My 96 LT4 has the low tire pressure warning system and stock sawblades with run-flats. I want to switch the tire over to some ZR-1 style wheels, but if I don't move the tire pressure sensors also, I'll get a warning on the dash (I think). Is there any way to disconnect the warning so I can...

    LT4 Spotting an LT4

    Look for the 6 speed and a quick look at the tach, which goes to 8000 rpm on the LT4 is a dead give-away.

    What's the best deal you've seen for GS Style Wheels?

    Low Battery?

    No, I think it's your standard NAPA variety.

    Low Battery?

    Well, I'm back to square one. After charging up the battery, I drove it to work and back one day last week and all seemed normal. I drove it again this weekend and on the way home, the voltage readings were all over the place, ranging from about 13.0 to 14.3 and changing constantly. Since the...

    Low Battery?

    The dealer told me that anything over 14.8 would indicate a problem. Now that I've charged the battery up, I seem to be pretty level at 14.3-14.4V. Thanks.

    LT4 LT4 "real" HP

    Thanks. This would appear to track with what several others have stated as well. 300RWHP equates to about 353 HP at the crank, right? And, +/- 2% would make the probable range in the neighborhood of 345-360.

    Low Battery?

    That's an interesting point on the alternator. After this happened, I did watch the digital voltage for a while and it was bouncing around from about 13.0 to 14.5. I'll get it checked. Thanks!

    Low Battery?

    My car is not a daily driver. Mostly it sits in the garage, under its cover, waiting for a nice day. It maybe gets driven a couple of times per week. It got a new battery last fall. So, today I drive it to work, to an appointment, stop at a drug store, and another store, then head to lunch...

    nervous

    I had that SYS light for quite a while when I first started the car. This was a car I had just puchased that had been stored most of the winter. The warning finally just went away on it's own. As someone stated, it indicates some sort of electrical problem. The dealer told me to just drive...
