    4+3 transmission odd behavior

    You are right on the money! The previous owner had the prom stolen while it sat for years waiting to be repaired. Must have replaced with an automatic prom! Thanks for the confirmation. It seems to work well otherwise.

    4+3 transmission odd behavior

    Hi guys, My 88 4+3 is finally out and moving under its own power after buying it in pieces. As my last c4 was an automatic, the 4+3 is a bit of mystery to me. My issues are that I do not get a shift light, or the over drive light. The car does go into overdrive in 2, 3 and 4th gears but feels...

    Question: Brake lights are on all the time

    Thanks! It looks like they just moved the switch when installing a new clutch master cylinder.

    Question: Brake lights are on all the time

    So my 1988 is off to the shop for the clutch replacement. All back together, they had to swap the clutch master cylinder as well. But now they are having an issue with the brake lights not turning off. Hey tried to unplug the switch at the pedal but said they still are on. Trying to wrap tap...

    Headlight issues (one up and one down)

    For those of you following along at home, the electric motor cover was 180 degrees out of sync. Unscrewed and turned and all better now.

    Headlight issues (one up and one down)

    So I just replaced the headlight bushings on both lights. All went well except for the passenger side light now folds down when on and pops up when off. I am guessing something was reversed when I reassembled that one as I had to pull the motor to remove that gear. But for the life of me, I...

    Thank you, appreciate the input. Plugs are done now, runs better warm but that cold start valve is toast. Waiting for a replacement now.

    Fuel Pressure Question 1988 C4

    So, all plugs but number 8 looked ok. 8 is fouled I pulled cold start injector and fire with injector tester, no fuel. Pulled and cleaned, still no fuel. My my theory is the number 8 injector got a little of the nasty in the fuel rail in it. That was causing that injector to leak...

    Need help figuring out what is missing from front of intake manifold

    So it ended up being the cold start sensor. Not sure where that went, but I found at Corvette America. They were back ordered so did more searches and found one at an O'Rielly Auto Parts store about an hour from the house so... made a trip in a snowstorm to pick up that one. FYI, it was $95 dollars.

    Fuel Pressure Question 1988 C4

    The car is on jack stands but seems to be consistent as much as I can replicate in the current situation. Right in the middle of an interior refresh so can't actually shut the doors right this moment.

    Fuel Pressure Question 1988 C4

    Guys, I have a weird issue with fuel pressure on a 1988 C4. Just put the car back together (it came in boxes) so it is fresh from the intake manifold up. New injectors were there when I got it, put them back in (I kno, I should have checked to see exactly what they were). New fuel pressure...

    Help! replace clutch master cylinder

    So, I was just working on my clutch safety switch and realized why mine is so easy to get to. Remove the cruise control switch off your clutch and unplug. You should now be able to see the pivot point on the master cylinder for your clutch. If you remove the brake light wire, you will gain a...

    Help! replace clutch master cylinder

    I can see mine without anything other than putting my back out getting my head down at the brake pedal. The clutch safety switch was harder to see than the pivot to the master. I actually just removed it again yesterday to install the bushing that I forgot the first time. Total time 5 minutes.

    Need help figuring out what is missing from front of intake manifold

    Working on assembling a project that I didn't tear down. Can anyone tell me what should be fitted in the hole just below the fuel line mounts on the front of the intake? Photo attached.

    Help! replace clutch master cylinder

    I am working on mine right now. I used a long flat blade screw driver to push the clip up and off. I had to reach up there and rotate the clip until the open end faced down where I was going to push on the clip from with the screw driver. Came off first try. Getting it back on was not as easy :)

    Help! T10's from Fuel Pressure Regulator.... Need to replace

    Just picked up a basket case 1988 C4 with the fuel pressure regulator pulled out. Of course there are no T10's to put it back in. Any suggestions on replacements? Thanks!
