L98 plenum by
David Johnson
Just bought a powder coated plenum. Supposed to have been off a 89. But it
is not. I have removed EGR and smog pump from my 89. The plenum and TB are
diffrent. Is the extra triangular shaped hole between the TB and plenum used
for EGR? If not what is its purpose? Or is it part of the IAC. What...

C3 Brakes by
RM
I have a 82 Collector Editor with very low miles and the calipers are
leaking. Everything about the car is original. The question is, do I have
my calipers rebuilt? Or do I purchase rebuilt ones and exchange mine? Or
purchase new AC-Delcos? Would I devalue the car having new calipers...

need some used Goodyear EMTs? by
Clayton E. Cramer
I put a pair of them from my C5 up on eBay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=8024888584&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT
with a starting bid of $50 for two of them. To my surprise, no one's
interested. These have 4/32" of tread left.

A beautiful New Years Day by
Dad
What a beautiful day to start a new year out with, took the Corvette
out and warmed it up good, was a bit hard to accelerate at over 100 in
4th. Wanted to get a little loose on the cold pavement. Had to wash
some road grim off but was still worth it to get it out again, 3 weeks
is to long to let it...

1995 Corvette Problems (security ??) by
gunnerT
I own a 1995 Corvette. It has 6,000 miles on it. I had to replace the
original equipment battery this summer. After I put the replacement
battery in I did not try to start it for about a month. When I did finally
try to start it the new battery was completely drained. After trying to
charge it I...

Newbie Questions by
redranger69
Ok, I admit I have the bug for a corvette. (Actually I've had it for a
long time!)
Anyway, I'm interested in C4 (basically, because this is the price
range I can afford... around $12000)
Which years are the best in this range? I would want something
reliable. What mileage would be the max before...

Mirror Gromet Rplacement by
Steve Horrillo
The grommet right behind the driver's side mirror that holds the mirror in
place popped off. Even though I removed the mirror it's too tight a space
for me to push it back on. The dealer said the whole mirror needs to be
replaced at the cost of $500! Any tips on how to get the retainer ring...

Wheel hub Extensions on a 1980 C3 by
E_Tar
Was wondering, would a 1-inch front and rear wheel hub extension be
advisable for a c3 -1980 roadster ? The result would be the tires
jutting out an inch more on either side in the rear giving the car a
meaner look and (I assume) improving handling.
Would it be advisable ?

Power antenna by
NH Vette guy
I have a 92 convertible, not sure if that matters, that I need to change the
antenna mast on. The antenna works, partly, it just does not run the full
cycle. The question is, how do you get to the antenna out to swap the mast
out ? ant tip would be great.
Thanks

Coolant Leak by

I have a small coolant leak somewhere on the front area of the engine.
It seems to collect on the top of the front spring straight down from
the alternator. I have looked every where. I recently added a ported
polished throttle body and ran a coolant bypass. I noticed the leak
while trying to...

ABS unit - 1988 corvette by
[email protected]
my mechanic tells me that the ABS unit on my 88 is probably shot --
left front wheel will lock up on hitting the brakes -- we've already
fried one set of calipers trying to figure this out.
Initial attempts at finding this unit have not been successful --
apparently GM views this to be obsolete;...

C5 Peeling Coating on Glass Roof by
Mike Nelson
I have found a partial solution for the classic problems with the
transparent glass roof for the C5. These often have their hard, outer
coating peel off. The damage is always a stripe on the passenger side
running front to back.
There are 2 steps:
1.) Wet sand the affected area with 2000 grit...

- Does a 2000 C5 Have Brake Pad Sensors? by
Matt Trivisonno
I guess my mechanic was just trying to sell me some brake pads. He said there
were no sensors on the C5, which I found hard to believe. The car has 35,000
miles on it, so his recommendation to change the front pads was at least
plausable.
I see that the front pads are worn down more than the rear...
