No I did not pinch off the return line. I will do that this Friday when I gain access to the car. If I buy an OBD1 scanner. I do not need the engine light to come on, is that correct? I thought that the light was an indication that the ECM was seeing everything it needs to see. But, if all I...

That's them. Thank you. Holly crap 90 dollars per. Thanks again

I was affraid to just go look up injectors that fit. The ones that are in the car fit. But, Gordon , Mr. Corvette, said that the resistance is important and these have the wrong resistance. Thank you for the help.

Hello Everybody, I spoke to Gordon Kilebrew and I think he said that my 1985 Corvette uses Lucas fuel injectors 101081. But, every time I try and search Lucas fuel injectors all I get is Lucas injector cleaners. Did I hear him correctly. in. Presently my spark plugs get so black that I need...

I purchased a 1985 Corvette 4 plus 3. The accelerator and other throttle cables were not on the car. I have done a few google searches but have not been able to determine the cables I need. Does anyone have a picture of the throttle tang with the cables, the cables part number or any way that I...

Hello, I checked the resistance of the Fuel injectors yesterday. All of them have 12.5 Ohms resistance. The stock resistance is supposed to be 14 - 16 ohm. A guy on YouTube said the actual number is not as important as the fact that they are all about the same. I measured the fuel pressure...

Hello 65z01, The SEL does not come on when I turn on the key. I forget the page number but I did find the circuit in the FSM. Presently I am on vacation so I don't have the FSM disc or I would give you the page number. The car is in a Auto Hobby Shop on Navy Base Guam. I need to pay 6 or 10...

Hello, I got my 1985 project car running. But the idle is really bad. I am checking the TPS today. I cannot pull codes. Shorting AB on the ACLC does not work. I am thinking of replacing the ECM. Should I go with a 85 replacement or is there a better option. Thank you Joe

Hello, I am restarting a 1985 Corvette. I have the car running and I am trying to see if the sensors and ECM are working correctly. The previous owner did a little rewiring. I put a paper clip in terminals A and B on the ALCL. The check engine light did not come on. I am wondering what to do...

Two things 1) Someone from the Corvette Forum had a picture of the connector I need. The former owner installed an Alpine security device. There is a LARGE bundle of wires looking at the bundle I actually think the connector is in the bundle. 2) I depressed the Cruise control switch. It has the...

Yes I am talking about the rear and roof brake lights. When I was driving my other car. I realized that there is no electrical connection to the brake light switch. There is however a connector with a blue and white wire connected to the cruise control switch. I think that this connector...

Hello everybody, I own a 1989 6spd Z51 Corvette. I just changed the brake booster and the brake lights are on and will not go out. I tried the adjustment procedure in the manual and the one listed on the Corvette forum. The lights stayed on. Then I had my daughter look at the lights to see if...

Thank you for the advice. Take cars

Actually getting a little better at using the FSM. And, yes it did help. I went to the CLSTR/CLK fuse and did see as you a lot of stuf is on that fuse. Turns out it was a fuse that I replaced the fusible wire link with. I had to jump the car and the cables must have touched the fuse block and...

Hello Everyone, I own a 1989 Z51 Manual Corvette. My interior lights and cigarette lighter just stopped working. I am looking at the fuse block diagram and trying to figure which fuse if any operates those components. As I look at the diagram I am reading the numbers on the block and the fuse...

So I have a 1989 Z51 6 spd. It was backfiring since I bought it. But it started to backfire so badly on deceleration that it would stall. I read on one of the threads that the injectors could be the problem. I called a company that rebuilds the fuel injectors, I forgot the name but I got it from...

Dave looks like these guys have got you covered good luck

You are correct. Just after I posted the thread I looked at the photos and said . Could use a little cleaning. I had to clean the cigarette lighter with 1500 sand paper so that the lighter worked. No lighter. No Cell phone. No tow truck, YIKES!!!! Thank you

Hello Everybody I own a 1989 Z51 6 spd. My horns do not work. I took the center off the steering wheel and found this. Is this what it is supposed to look like. The spring is on the yellow wire. When I ran a wire from battery ground to the yellow wire the horns did sound.

Okay so this morning armed with the advice you people have so graciously provided. I jack up the Corvette. Remove the tail lights and start looking for power and ground. After about an hour and no luck I decide. To look for a fuse. Holy crap the lights have a 10 amp fuse. I thought that all the...
