I've got about 120,000 miles on my '85. Everything in the block is original - it's never even been apart. I dropped my oil temps about 20 degrees at the track...
That may well be. I was the 2nd owner and as far as I knew, there had been
no mechanical repairs done to it. When I pulled the motor and heads, I
found the...

I know we talked about adding alcohol to a 1/4 tank of gas to help pass inspection. I want to see if it will pass normaly, but should I at least let my 93...
YES ! never test with high octane. the thing about octane is a huge misconception by most. 93 oct is the same fuel as 87 is. the difference being is that the...
Thanks, I will drive around and burn up the 93 octane gas and re-fill w/87.... It shouldn't be hard to get the engine hot, I have had no time to fix the air...
Well, I thought I would start with you guys to look for the answer to the latest `glitch' in my `92 C4 Cpe. It's a fairly recent development. First, the...
you are about to enter the wonderful world of headlite motor replacement/rebuilding.... a common symptom of stripping nylon gears. gears are about $50 to do...
According to the article on oil in the latest edition of CORVETTE magazine, the author states that the main reason for Mobil 1 was that it keeps the engine...
That's what I had read, too. When the C4 was redesigned, no oil cooler was included because synthetic oil was recommended and the engine would run cooler. If...
My 84 has been doing this since I got it..... Only at 25-30mph the engine will stutter a little, or miss. The last owner replaced the spark plugs with the...
thats great! did they give you the print out that had the min and max? where was yours compared to the max allowed? that'll tell you IF you might get away...
my first guess would be plug wires.... i have bought many that were not the quality that GM uses and they caused miss, sputtering and hesitation. i had one set...
Funny thing, but I just replaced my nylon bushings in my driver's side motor today (with the help of a friend). It was working fine when I left his house, but...
well, you should replace the 2 gears/ its not unusual for the worm gear drive to get a bad spot and thats what will start the chatter at a certain place. that...

I promise, this post is Short and hopefully helpful. I discovered something which enabled me to clean off the front surface of the radiator, at least to some...
I bought an 85 coupe recently and did the steering wheel check to see if I have Z51 suspension. The wheel turns exactly 2 times, but when I checked the repair...
I replaced the bushings in the first place because the headlight would come up part way, then stop. It only did it twice and worked fine the rest of the time,...

Thanks for the idea Dan. The dealer here has asked the Corvette club to do a show in conjunction with the C6 debut Sept. 22 (the C6 came in today). I'll ask if...
