    1987 Corvette Owners Manual

    I have a 1987 Corvette owners manual like new with the original Leather cover. My neighbor had it and gave it to me but mine is an 89 Vette. If someone would like it I will send it to you if you will pay for shipping. I will send it first and you can send money later when you see how much the...

    What is your best mileage on a trip?

    I took a trip to Vegas last year with my son and got 26.4 MPG. I thought that was great. This last couple of months I put in new high perfomance fuel injectors, computer, K and N air filter , flowmaster exhaust and new cats. I just got 33 MPG coming home from work on the freeway. I was amazed...

    Rack and Pinion just installed

    Hi everyone, I just installed a new rack {positive it is the correct one} and changed hoses . I refilled power steering fluid after I turned the wheel a couple of times. When the car first starts up at a dead stop the wheel turns fine. After a minute when I'm just sitting if you try to turn the...

    Squeak or Whistle at Shift

    My 1989 is automatic. When I hit the gas hard and the car shifts from 1st to second I can hear a whistle or squeak that last for about a second. It will happen from 1st to second or second to third at high rpm. You dont hear it at normal driving paces. Any ideas, I know the tensioner is weak...

    Catalytic Converter

    I just put a Magnaflow exhaust on my 1989 L98. I am also going to be changing the three cats. The two front smaller cats are not an issue, but the big one in the back is the one I am wondering about. I can get a generic that my "Corvette exhaust guy" loves. I was wondering if any of you in...

    License Plate Light?

    When I was having my new Magna Flow's put on today my 89 Vette was in the air and I glaced up at the license plate and noticed an opening above the rear plate. I am assuming the light for the license plate fell out there. I looked for wires but didn't see any. Am I correct in assuming the whole...

    New Windshield Leaks

    Just had a new windsheild installed because mine cracked when I washed it the other day. Now I have a big leak dripping from the rear view mirror. I took off the top and looked at the rubber molding. It has a significant hole on the passengers side and is coming up right above the mirror. My...

    Ignition coil last week, now alternator!

    This was the easiest fix ever. After I bought a new alternator I started to take the old one off. The cap with wires first, and then the hard wire which just fell out of the little metal clamp holding it in. I went and got a new clamp, wired it in, and what do you know? 14.4 amps as soon as I...

    Ignition coil last week, now alternator!

    Last week I had to replace the coil, today the alternator went. Do you think one may have caused the other to go bad?

    Upshift Light

    I just bought a 1989 coupe a month ago and was wondering about the upshift light. So far it has not come on. I'm wondering if it is just disabled or broken or maybe I have not put the car through whatever it is that makes it light up. What seems to activate it is not all that clear from what...
