    FX3 troubleshooting

    John, I have installed the new computer and I am very happy with the results. I am using the Slalom 1 chip with stock valved shocks and the car rides much better than it did on the stock chip. Also no more fault codes. I spoke with a guy named Bill Hindorff at Bilstein. He is "the Corvette...

    FX3 troubleshooting

    Yes, I did use the manual. When I discovered the intermittent function of the right front motor, I ruled out the motor by swapping it with the left front motor. Other than that anomoly the system checks out according to the book. I will let you know whether the new box fixed the problem. It...

    FX3 troubleshooting

    Hib, Very interesting info. In my case the right front motor was working intermittently when the ignition was cycled from off to on. Even after swapping motors, the intermittent condition still occurred on the right hand side while the original motor from the right worked fine on the left...

    FX3 troubleshooting

    Hi John, First of all the fault codes which I assume are the same as my '91: 13 = Left rear time out 14 = Right front time out One of the things I did to eliminate possible failure modes was to swap out the motor being reported as defective by the computer with a known good one. In my case...

    1991 "SERVICE LTPWS" LIGHT

    I did some further checking and found that compared to the left front which had consistent readings, I could not get the same or consistent reading out of the right front. I disconnected the wiring harness from the motor and the SRC module and checked the continuity from one end to the other. No...

    FX3 troubleshooting

    I have been troubleshooting a right front problem on my 91. I had a right front out of position fault originally. I found a broken adjuster on the right front shock. I recently had all the shocks replaced and the light went out initially. On the drive home I was trying out the different...

    1991 "SERVICE LTPWS" LIGHT

    My Service LTPWS light is lit on the DIC. I retreived F/C's 24(RR), 34(LR), and 54(RF). I always assumed I had three bad sensors and planned on replacing them when I got new tires. Recently, I ran over some debris and cut the right rear tire which developed a slow leak. Eventually, the "Low...

    1991 L98 Valvetrain Noise

    Doc, Thanks for all the information. I appreciate the thorough explaination. Can I get the Chevron Delo 400 Multigrade at any Chevron station? By the way, what year is your 300E? I have a 1990 300 SEL. We've enjoyed the car a lot but just recently lost the head gasket so I am going through...

    1991 L98 Valvetrain Noise

    Doc, Thanks for the tip. What I have done so far is to run some Lubro Moly engine cleaner right before the oil change. The oil went from clear to jet black in 20 minutes. When I added the new oil I also used Lubro Moly's engine treatment. I have had good luck with these products in the wife's...

    1991 L98 Valvetrain Noise

    I have a 91 Coupe with about 98,000 miles on it. It definitely has some valve train noise but I haven't had time to pop off the valve covers. Has anyone else had to readjust valves on the L98? I recently put new Bosch injectors in it from TPIS which, in my case made less noise than the old...

    L98 383 engine buildup

    I found these headers at TPI Specialties. They come equipped with air injection manifolds and EGR tube provisions. That will be enough for them to pass smog here in California since they do not defeat any of the original smog devices. I tried this on my Chevy 4X4 with a SB 400 and a set of...

    Well, I sent an email of to Centerforce asking them about the compatibility of their clutches with the dual mass flywheel. Rick Mard from Centerforce replied saying: DF is the dual friction clutch. Both clutches are available at Summit for considerably less than they are listed for on the...
