Dood day folks, I've been bitten by the corvette bug and after owning one for almost a year (1977 Ontario orange coupe), doing restorations and getting up to show room condition, I want to buy another one. I'm going to keep the one I presently have. My question is after watching Barrett and...

First of all.. I love my Corvette and I really like this Newsgroup. Just to thank all that responded to my timing chain cover disaster on my '77 vette. I managed to get the job done and I have a real feeling of accomplishment after changing out the timing chain and gears etc. I put in a rebuilt...

Hey there, Again with my 1977 Vette.....BTW... I did all the brake calipers and brake shoes etc.... job went without a hitch. The new timing chain, water pump and entire front end is totally sealed and running fine with no leaks. My next personal fix is to look at the rear leaf spring as the...

Hello Folks, My windshield washer pump works on my '77....but very noisy...like the bearings are going out or something and it sometimes takes forever getting water to the wipers...9car had sat for many years before I bought it) I have made the decision to replace it....but what a hell of a spot...

Hi, I am still restoring my '77 and have just received a set of bezels to go around the rear hatches of my Vette (battery box, rear storage compartments etc.). I am going to be attaching these plastic things to the existing carpet. Can anyone recommend a glue for this?. Thanks...Jim

1980 Corvette, has intermittent no start problem. For no reason when I least expect it, there is no one home when I turn the key to start. No noise, not cranking, just nothing. Battery is up, just got to sit and wait it out, then when it has a change of mind away it goes again. --

I have a 1991 C4 which displays the average mileage per gallon wrong. It is always inflated. i.e. it will show 26 average when the true average is only 21. This is the fiorst time I have ever seen a car's computer average being wrong. Is ther a sensro that needs replaced or???

What is known about Corvettes running in the American LeMans racing series. The Aston Martins have been kicking Corvettes asses since the vette engines have been limited. Is the engine limit still in place? The vettes also had a penalty weight added, but apparently it was removed for the current...

I currently own my third Corvette. I had a 1971 LT1, a 1985, and now, a 1993 40th Anniversary. They have all been used when I got them, and they have all been coupes. I'm looking forward to getting my first new Corvette in 2010, for my 60th birthday. I'm really tempted to buy a roadster. I live...

My '93 was running very poorly. I took it to my service guy who diagnosed a clogged fuel injector. He cleaned it, and the car ran well again for one day. I took it back in, and he saw that there was crud on the intake for the injector. He then saw that the fuel line was filled with a hard...

Hey, I have a '77. The weatherstripping around the main doors are allowing a lot of wind noise. Ordering new ones soon. Any tips on replacing them as I'm afraid to end up with more wind noise than I started with by perhaps putting it off too far to one side etc...never done...

I changed out my emergency brake handle assembly in my '77. The lever was broken. Anyways...when I took apart the console I found this filter thingy laying inside. It appears to have fallen in the counsole along with some spare change. My question is, is this a Corvette part?.. It has a screen...

Hi, Have been restoring a '77 vette. My aluminum wheels were white with oxidization.I took off each wheel and spent two hrs each using rubbing compound and Mothers aluminum polish. I took 30 years of oxidization off those rims and brought them totally back to life. They shine like silver...

Hello, I am still restoring a '77 vette and it's going pretty good so far.. Have had the car for 3 years or so. Presently having problems finding a part........I usually use Corvette Central , Ecklers or Mid America Motorworks catalogues to find my parts. I'm looking for the switch...

I have a 1980 coupe with an auto transmission & 350 motor. I was wondering what the RPM's should read on the tach when cruising at 60 MPH. My car is running at around 3200 which seems a bit high & my gas milage is terrible. I was thinking it should drop down to around 2200. Could this be a trans...

I have a 1993 Corvette and one day while running the AC this blue/whitish smoke started bellowing out of the hood. I didn't know what the problem was, but I managed to get the car home... it was a short drive. The following morning, I started the car up and heard a "thwack". I shut the engine...
