Ok folks..... I've got a dilemma. We start with one, simple, non-computerized 1983 Dodge D-150 pickup with the bullet proof 225 Slant Six. This is about as simple as a vehicle gets and it's all right there with easy access. Yesterday.... ran just fine. Wired in a new 2500lb capacity small...

The wife spent this summer whining about her hair and the wind in her ear while running at hwy speeds with the top down. Since It's far cheaper to look for some type of wind/air deflector than it is to replace the wife (and watch the lawyers saw my Vert in half along with the boat and all my...

If there are links to previous responses to this query, please point me in the right direction. My beautiful (new) 2002 Torch Red Vert was in pristine condition when I bought her. The paint was flawless without a blemish in the paint/clear anywhere. So I happily take a 3000 mi road trip to...

Can anyone tell me if the Delco/Bose radio with the tape player and 12 disk CD changer that comes in a 2002 C5 is capable of having the (GM version) of an installed Sirius/XM radio module installed as part of the "AUX" button on the head unit? My 2003 Cadillac DTS could be upgraded as was my...

To all my L81 registry pals, I have to sadly admit that the special primer 1981 was upgraded to a 2002 Torch Red 6-spd Convertible. The old '81 served me well and for many, many years of trouble free driving joy. But time and wear started to take its toll and it was time to upgrade especially...

Has anybody ever seen the heater soleniod valve assembly leak? Not the hoses attached to it; but rather between the circular membrane device and the block it is attached to. Anyone ever have to replace one of these? If so, where did you find one; or are they common enough to have been used on...

I need some good old CAC help from the LT4 experts. My son is looking at (what is being billed as) a 96 CE coupe. So I pulled out my Corvette Black Book (CBB) and I already have a couple issues. 1. The car is an automatic. - according to the CBB, the CE's were ONLY 6-spd tranny's...

Folks.... I just talked to Guy this morning and he said to tell everyone that the Black '82 they brought down to be judged won the 4 Star Bow Tie Award yesterday. Guy and Dawn are very proud parents. They said to say Hi to everyone (even you Len) and they are having a great time in Hershey...

Well I've searched high and low through the reams of my documentation and I have lost/misplaced by list of "Check Engine" codes and which two pins to short to dump the codes. Any help w/b greatly appreciated. I suspect an O2 sensor (since that's about all that's left of the Emissions stuff I...

OK folks..... I've got a problem with my turn signal. It goes like this: a). when I turn on the right turn signal the green arrow in the dash lights and blinks as normal. b). the right rear bulb flashes as normal. ..... but the right front light will not blink. The right running light comes...

Well it's about time I feel into something other than ****! While going through my attic in preparation of getting my house ready to sell this spring I happened upon an unfamiliar box; unmarked. Since I (wisely) went through my sons toys eons ago and bagged up every Star Trek, Star Wars...

OK team..... what am I doin' wrong? Got my VBP rebuilt kit today. Unfortunately since my SS sleeved calipers are over 15 years old they have the lip seals and that's what I had to replace them with. So....... caliper taken apart. Sleeves in great shape, no pits in the walls; pistons also...

A mystery has surfaced in my garage. While looking in the attic for my roofing paper (another LONG story) I found a box with a nice new carb. It's a remanufactured Rochester Q-Jet in a box called Acti-Flo Carb. Stock No. C158. The serial number on the carb body is: 17057204 1527 AYN I...

Ok folks here's my problem. As you may seen posted my brakes crapped out on me on the way to Bowling Grren this week. Sucking air. Where? Up on jack stands, bled them all. Air left front only. Hmmm. But....... I notice something I've never seen before. A wet area on the left side (facing...

Fellow Shark pilots, I made a marvelous discovery today. After crapping out my third Power Window switch I decided to take one apart to see what was making it fail. Lo and behold....... the only thing that is failing is the small circuit card in the switch is getting loose. Once the board...

Ok folks..... here's my dilemma. I got nailed at a Concours Judged show this weekend in the tech review. My right front turn signal was not working. :nono However, the right rear as well as the right indicator light in the dash blinked just fine in both the turn signal mode and Emergency...

I've never had this problem before but I have a small leak at my oil filter. I changed the oil and filter this weekend. This morning a noticed a small puddle of oil under the car when I pulled it out. Drove it to work but noticed no puddle there. When I got home I jacked it up and I have oil...

Ok community, I need some help. I have a Borg Warner 5-spd tranny that my son got for free. Seems to be in excellent shape, but I have no idea what it came out of or what it will fit into. It has no metal ID tag/plate on it anywhere. There are a number of casting or serial numbers. Perhaps these...

My son got has hands on a set of 350 heads. Had them worked over first rate. 5 angle valve gob, new guides, seals, replaced a few valves but most cleaned up perfect. Nice $400 job. Now the problem is the buddy he bought them from has moved away and we don't know what type, age of a 350 they...

Every once in a while I master the scanner. Here's a pic from the NCM in June when the L81 crew invaded the "Collector Edition" Rendezvous. They sure knew we were there, hey Bud? ............ Nut
