    Help! Location of oil pressure sending unit in '89?

    Thanks for the reply,may be I'm confused.... All I see is a silver round part about three inches long (diameter slightly larger than a quarter) connected to a metal tee coming off the back of the drivers side head very close to the distributor... Nothing resembling the new pressure sending unit...

    Help! Location of oil pressure sending unit in '89?

    Recently purchased a vette-aid plug&play dash and all is well but I cannot find the oil pressure sending unit. The instructions that came with the dash show it located right under the oil pressure switch(3 wire plug) but it's not under the switch. Anywhere else it could be on an '89 auto vette...

    A lot of heat at my feet!

    Beautiful vette! I love the bright red on the C4's :) .... Ya know mine has been,how would I say... Not all together at full throttle,a bit sluggish I guess but still gets to speed. I've only had the vette for about 4 years now and the only thing I haven't messed with is the transmission cause I...

    I think the easiest larger repair on a C4 is.....

    Gotta admit I was pretty worried when my pump died... Till I read how to replace it. Now its on my long list of things easier to replace than the #2 spark plug (I hate that one!!!!).

    Trip resets when key goes off...

    Hi everybody! My 89' loves giving me things to do and I'm sure this is no different. Well,this has happened in the past but very rarely....

    11.4mpg in town in my '89 L98.

    I'll research up on testing some of those sensors (I gotta quit being a cheapo and get that fsm). And the surging at idle when warmed up is real slight and only say,every 3-5 seconds. When it surges its slight as well but happens in the low rpms when taking off from a stoplight but then smooths...

    Thanks guys I didnt think something was right. Yesterday I went and filled up and after some calculationg it came out to like 11.758xxxx mpg. It has no codes,but it does surge a bit at idle,not sure if this is within the same problem but unless warmed up (around 110f),somewhere between...

    muffler eliminators

    Vettefan87,how loud would you say it is in DD traffic and what not? My '89 is my main DD and I was thinking about a front Y pipe w/o pre-cats and a high flow cat with these muffler eliminators to replace the choked up quiet stock setup. Do you think that would be to loud for a daily driver? My...
