    Dale I bought a new switch from Ecklers. It was expensive, around $100.00. Also, I noted that everytime I took the car out of storage and had to jump the batt is when it blew the switch. I'm not sure of the corialtion but that's when it always seemed to happen!

    Yes, still looking to repair the timer! Bad news, now I have two, the one I replaced last year and the new one, both are bad! It must have something to do with battery charging? Both cases, when the car was put up for the winter everything was fine. When preped for Spring start the battery...

    Agree with everyone. Just put Flowmaster 40 on, nice but not to load. If your looking for a growl go 50!

    Headers or NOT

    Need some advise. I have an all original 81, 21K on the odometer. I just drive it, no rallies, racing or shows...to speak of! I do have an exhaust leak, the left side manifold gasket has sprung a leak. The delemma is should I just replace the gasket? Go to headers? Remove the smog pump...

    Power Antenna Problems

    Agree with GMjunkie! Sounds like the mast is breaking! Had the same issue with my 81. Replaced the mast and works great! You can disconnect the power lead, it's behind the left rear speaker, this will stop the motor from running and burning up. When you disassemble you'll have to drill out...

    OK so it was suppose to be easy! Contacted the GMParts Direct, ordered new relay. Just received a notice that this item has been discontinued. Any ideas? I've contacted several dealers, Eckler's, etc. No one seems to have this, I know welcome to C3 repairs.

    C3 Radio

    Depends on your needs, restoration, fun drive, etc. Simple task but don't buy the USA Autosound. I got one and nothing but trouble. First unit didn't light up, the replacement was painless under warranty, but the new now won't play on AUX- for the iPod, the search button is jammed in and...
