My buddy is very meticulously restoring a 1969 big block.
He cannot find anything that says which way the tie rods are installed.
There are, of course, left hand and right hand thread ends on the tie rods.
He wants to know if the right-hand threads go toward the outboard or inboard.
Thanks in...
1996 LT1 Coupe
How can I find the part or part number for the clip that holds the wire loom at the top of the upper coolant tank? It is the one toward the center of the car. Mine broke.
Clip is here:
Broken "half":
Thanks in advance.
1996 with original Bose Gold system. Unit has not seen much use, the car is garaged 99% of the time. If I have a cd in the unit and I turn on the radio the cd ejects. If the radio is on when I start the car, the cd ejects. Anybody else experience this? Thanks
Can anyone tell me the source, or where to get a suitable for framing copy? It hits the nail right on the head for me.
I cannot remember the web site where I got this image. And the quality just isn't there for framing.
Thanks in advance for the help
It's time for brakes. What brand of pads do you guys recommend?
I'd like some degree of high performance, but I want low-dust and nothing that's going to wear the rotors faster. Purely street use.
Tell me what brands you like or dislike. Many Thanks!
I did it again. Left my car supplies out in the cold garage.
Brand new bottle of NXT was all separated. I shook it for a while and it seems like it mixed.
Would you use it?
After about 6+ hours work the old pump is out. Had one heck of a time with the middle bolt on the drivers side. After searching found an old thread that said you can get to this bolt, which resides behind two hoses and the power steering pump pulley. Well I got to it, with a short extension, a...
Water pump is seeping just a little and the belt is throwing a line of coolant up under the hood. I didn't think at 31K miles I would be in for this, but maybe it is because the car sits for long thru the winters here??
It seems to stop after the engine warms up. But, I guess I'll do the safe...
It's not about brand this time. I need trustworthy advice. I've heard too many versions. When the weather breaks I'm going for new tires...and it's got me concerned...
When they lift my car:
1. Doors open or closed?
2. Removeable top on or off?
3. Hood open or closed?
4. Anything else I need...
I park the daily driver in a two-car garage next to the vette which is hibernating. The problem is, during the winter months in Ohio, the roads are salted to the max. The wet salt drips onto the floor and seems to grow crystals when it dries which creep across the floor and into the vette's...
I want to order the fuel rail letters, but the only ones I have seen in person are the red ones.
Anyone have experience with the chrome set?
Sometimes chrome plating on plastic rubs off. That's what I'm concerned about.
Thanks! :w
Clearcoat Blister
I got hit very lightly on the belt line at the rear drivers side corner:mad .
It made a scuff mark on the belt line which polished off ok. But it also caused the clearcoat to lift up like a blister just about half the size of your little fingernail just below the belt line...
After cruising an hour or so, I get intermittent whiffs of gasoline odor. Last time when I got home, I sniffed around and found it was originating at the gas cap. I know it is supposed to hold pressure and it seems to do that, as evidenced by the release of pressure when I open it at fill-up...
Help:
I saw a '96 polo green coupe diecast model in one of the Corvette catalogs. My wife said she will get it for me for Christmas, and now I can't find it.
Does anyone know which catalog that was in?
Thanks for the help and Happy Holidays everyone.
What is the best, and safest to use, spray-on wheel cleaner on the market?
There are warnings on most of the labels about testing for hazing and discoloration.
Specifically, I am looking for a wheel cleaner to use on the coated aluminum "sawblades".
Thanks in advance.
Can anyone tell me where I can find a chart or something to tell me where all the grease points are on my car? ('96 coupe).
Oil change coming up soon and I'd like to hit grease points too.
Thanks for the help!
Anyone want to comment on spray detailers?
Are they ok to use often? Which one is the best? Do they add swirl marks etc.?
Thanks, I really enjoy reading all the good info.
Can anyone tell me why the buttons on the electronic climate control panel don't always light up? The system works fine otherwise. Problem is that MOST of the time the buttons don't light. Thanks.
