    With Viper splitting from Dodge, should Corvette have separated from Chevy?

    You know, I have never minded knowing more about the car I'm going to purchase than anyone at a Stealership. That way, they can't blow smoke at me. The only reason I deal with them, is I can't purchase a new one any other way of which I'm aware.

    Comparison of Fuel System Cleaners?

    Has anyone seen or made a comparison of the various fuel system cleaners? I went to Auto Zone to get some "Techron Concentrate Plus", but saw numerous products, Prestone, Lucas Oil, RedLine, etc. They can't all be the best, then there is Amsoil, and many more.:confused

If a petroleum based lubricant is used, then Dawn wash again. Dry throughly using a 100% US cotton cloth to pat dry...

    Extended Warranty Poll

    It is my understanding that the extended warranty is only available while the original warranty is still in effect. Then the opportunity to get one or extend one is forever lost. That is for the GMPP, I don't know about after market ones. From the GMPP website: The GM Protection Plan can only...

    C5/C6 Octane Usage?

    There have been discussions as to which fuel to use in C5 and C6 engines. The manual recommends premium (93 octane) fuel. I have tried a tank of 87 octane in my Z06, but now use 93 exclusively regardless of cost difference (brand doesn't matter, except no Citgo in my vehicles). Several people...
