One of my buddies use to work for H-Vide Shipping and they transported gas and fuel oil up and down the East and Gulf Coasts. He basically told me all gas is the same when they deliver it, with the exception of the octane levels. Once the brand names get it, they start adding their additives...

Ultra 93 is $3.18 a gallon at the local Sunoco in my hometown of North Attleboro, MA. Other premium fuels are as much as ten cents a gallon higher. It keeps going up every other day. Bob M.

The paint on my 1990 Polo Green Coupe is actually in very good shape except for the rear area which has experienced fading and develops a "white haze" a week or so after waxing. I'm also experiencing fading in the front bumper area which has plenty of "sand blasting" marks from the previous...

Like many of you, I always put premium fuel in my Vette. I purchase most of the gas for my three vehicles at a local Cumberland Farms (Gulf) Gas Station. One day I decided to fuel up at the neighboring Sunoco Station and put in a tank of "Ultra 93", instead of the usual 92 octane premium at...

Thanks for the "Welcomes". I enjoy reading the many posts here at the CAC. After putting approximately 500 miles on my Vette last year, I decided it would be nice to use it as a "daily driver". I must say I'm enjoying the experience and the car is running so much better with constant use...

My 1990 Coupe is nearing the time for replacement tires. To the best of my knowledge, my tire pressure sensors are still intact and working. As a matter of fact I had the "Low tire pressue" warning light come on this week which was quickly fixed by putting air in my tires. Can I eliminate...

I hadn't posted in over 17 months but I'm back! I have a 90 Coupe, Polo Green, Saddle interior, and it's a 6 speed. I just recently removed the original Bose System and put in a new Alpine Stereo and all new speakers. I also just replaced the outer window weather stripping in the doors. Next...

On to my next problem... The weather-stripping that rubs against the door windows as they are opened and closed has turned brittle and is starting to crack on both doors. Should I be able to obtain factory replacements and how difficult are they to change? Bob M.

Thanks for that info, "tyrel". How difficult of a job is it to replace the stereo and speakers? Would I be better off replacing what's defective with original equipment or just bite the bullet and have it all replaced? I believe my radio/CD player is original. Also, would one blown amp...

My radio/CD Player has stopped functioning. My power antenna also stopped going up and down automatically, and now remains in the up position. I figure the antenna problem may control the radio but it shouldn't effect the CD Player. Before the radio/CD completely died, it would occasionally...

Hey Tuna, ...when you refer to the opposite side of the wheel are you refering to the back side of the wheel? Are all pressure sensors at that exact spot with no variations? When you refer to the "bead not being moved anymore than needed", do you mean once the bead is broken the tire should not...

My 1990 Coupe needs new tires re dry cracks from lack of use. My tire dealer is concerned that the tire pressure sensors may be damaged during the dismounting of the old tires and he doesn't want to be responsible if they don't function properly after the new tires are mounted. My questions...
