Hey everyone. I have a 96 auto that started to have starting problems about a month ago. My car is outside in my driveway and the weather was a little wet the past month. About a month ago, my car took a long time cranking before it would start. Once started, there was no problem starting it for...

Hey everyone. It's been awhile. Well, about 3 weeks ago I had to change my intake manifold gasket so I had to disconnect the battery. Now I'm trying to get my car smogged but I can't get the HCAT or EVAP to be ready. Every other monitor is ready and I need one of these to be ready to take the...

Just a basic LT1 but it sounds like more.

I'll try to get a video as soon as the storm is over. I live in San Francisco and it's been raining hard all day and night. I also now have a problem with my car overheating. Hopefully it's just the thermostat.

Hey everyone. Just added an X-pipe to my exhaust. No resonator and no mufflers. The drone I was getting from the resonator is now gone and I can actually have a quiet conversation, well until I floor it!!! What do you guys and girls think? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8wtUVL1VvM

Thanks for the advice. After I changed the EGR valve and EGR solenoid, I changed both front oxygen sensors (passenger side was a PITA). I also remembered that last year, I got a P1441 code for the evap purge solenoid. I changed it but I got the code again about 4 months ago. I erased the...

Thank you. I ordered 2 oxygen sensors to replace both of the front ones. Picking them up tomorrow. Should I change both or only the one that's not working?

Hey everyone. Still trying to pass California smog. Replaced EGR Solenoid and EGR Valve. Almost passing. NOX at 15 mph still just a little bit high. Got a code P0155 heater circuit. Haven't had time to check the circuit and oxygen sensor. Did check the fuse and it was still okay. The...

Thank you. I'll try it tomorrow.

I also wondered about the heater circuit. I have the FSM and will look it up. Do you happen to know what page it's on and is it easy to test. Sometimes it takes me forever to find something in the FSM and I hope it's not too hard to test because I don't know alot about electrical problems...

Just changed my egr solenoid and egr valve. I'm getting a P0155 on my scanner regarding the passenger side oxygen sensor. I believe the oxygen sensors have never been changed. Should I just change the sensor that's giving me the code ir should I change both sides? Also, how hard to change...

Hey everyone. Well, I have a 96 auto coupe with about 145,000 miles and I think it's time for a rebuild. There are other things that I need to replace for a 16 year old car but I want to have it in a better running condition first. It still runs well but the mileage is high. Does anyone know...

I don't know what the code is yet. It's a 1996 Coupe Automatic. Also, what does "IP fuse block #27, cluster" mean?

Hi everyone. Well, when I was driving back from Walmart, I noticed that my service engine light was on. I don't know when it turned on but the car ran fine as usual. I recently put in and replaced some fuses by the driver's side door. There were some missing fuses and also some fuses didn't...

What's the proper way to remove clear coat for paint prep? Hi everyone, I'm thinking of painting my 1996 Corvette stock rims. I saw paint made for rims but I was wondering how to get rid off the clear coat on the rims. Some of the clear coat has come off and I was thinking of sanding the rest...

Hi everyone, I'm thinking of painting my 1996 Corvette stock rims. I saw paint made for rims but I was wondering how to get rid off the clear coat on the rims. Some of the clear coat has come off and I was thinking of sanding the rest of the clear coat off. Is that the way to get rid of the...

Did you check your temperature by the analog temperature gauge or by the digital gauge temperature gauge? Corvettes are made to run a little hot and most of the time, the analog gauge is faulty so it's better to use the digital gauge. Also, have you recently done any work involving you...
