    Battery light and Choke light always on

    I installed a new alternator and now the battery light and the choke light are on when the engine is running. If I rev it up some the choke light goes out, and if I take it up to 4000 rpm or more the battery light gets dimmer but never really goes out. The alternator seems to be charging fine...

    Recharging with R-12

    My 80 vette still has some pressure in the a/c system, but I guess it needs more R-12. If I get some R-12, can I just add it to the system, or do I need to get gauges and fittings and vacuum it all out and then pump it in some how? I see small cans of R-12 on Ebay, can you just plug them into...

    Looking for Interior windshield trim, 80.

    The plastic piece that covers the top of the windshield frame on the inside of the car is cracked, and I can't find anyplace that sells it. The only parts I can find are the plastic covers that run up the sides of the frame, but not the top piece. Any ideas where to look?

As you can see in this picture, the shoe on the right isn't making contact with the bolt, if I tap on it I can get it...

    R12 or 134A? How do I tell what I have?

    1980 C3, AC not working since I got the car, if I press the Schrader valve there is pressure, not sure how much or what's in there. How can I tell if the system may have been converted, how much pressure should I have, and how do I read the pressure? The valve looks like a tire valve but it's...

    Parking brake

    I had a scraping noise coming from my right rear wheel so I took it apart and when I pulled off the brake disc two little springs fell out. They are both about 2 inches long over all, with about a half inch of coiled spring. Can anyone point me to a diagram of the parking brake components of a...
