for 1978 I'm starting to get the parts together to swap from auto to 4 speed standard trans. Just starting to gather the parts. I can get a 4 speed locally. I've got the bellhousing. I'm going to go new flywheel and clutch (of course). Need everything else. I missed an opportunity to get...

1978 Automatic Is the Power Steering Control Valve rod connected to the pitman arm suppose to be that loose when the car is not started. The car is darting quite a bit (more turning to the left then to the right) and noticed alot of play in that spot when I had it on a lift. That's the only...

1978 Corvette Gen light is always on. The console guage does not work. Checked volts from battery 14.5 to 14.7 as car is running. Starts perfect and runs just fine. What could be the cause of the light staying on? Thanks, Chuck M

Have a 2007 C6 6 speed with about 13K on it. No mods except K&N filter. I was almost done packing for Carlisle and wanted to move the car to give it a last minute wash when the clutch went to the floor and won't go up. I heard a very small "click" when it went to the floor and the car was NOT...

My 2002 started making noise for about 10 seconds the stopped when I turned the headlamps off and after the the doors dropped. I've read quite a few threads on this and ordered a replacement vinyl gear. The noise didn't go away after replacement and ever since the first time the noise started, I...

That's weird calling a C6 a "base" C6 isn't it! I found a C6 Conv, but with the base options....just has 6 speed manual and Z51. If it only had HUD. Has anybody looked into doing that on a C6. I've seen articles on the C5. If someone has, please let me know and if possible, approximate cost...

I brought my 2002 at a Chevy Garage under the GM extended warranty and asked them to check on a knock when first started and for about 10 minutes afterward. I made a copy of the front and back of their work order when the diagnosis was completed. The tech wrote: "Checked engine noise, had very...

I sold a 1964 X-Fuelie Coupe to someone who in turn sold it to someone in Mass. I noticed the car on ebay from the person in Mass and the description didn't mention the frame rust and body damage that I was up front about when I sold it. The seller finally added more to his description after...
