On my 1990 C4 the fuel mileage calculator seems to read about 10% better than it should. For instance it typically displays 21 mpg average, but when I...
I ran a test like this once on my 86. It was a few % points to being what the computer gauge said, closer than what I expected. I did read on the forum that...
you have to remember that this is all based on averages...what it gives you at 3/4 tank may not be exactly what the true average is, because there is 1/4 tank...
My SO’s 92 is off by at least 10%, don’t have enough miles on it yet to get an accurate figure. It’s running higher fuel pressure an LT-4 top end so I ...
he's right ! besides that, we take allot for granted here.. what other full size car, thats not ever gonna be nearly as powerful will get you even 22mpg...
Well Boo.... I discovered a puddle of PS fluid under the 84 today. Not Good since I just replaced the rack 2 months ago. Tuesday I'll be calling Eckler's to...
Well, it took some doing and some engineering as well, but I was able to get the 94 rear spring bolted in tonight. The weather here in DFW was fantastic today,...
Hey Bill, Since you finished the 84 the weather wasn’t the only good thing today. It was great here in Corpus today too. On the down side I found a leak in...
don't despare...it might just be a loose fitting or hose. or is it for sure coming from the shaft seal? well heck JIm, if they won;t work with you....get a...
i wish you'd ask me.... i've done rears alone. there are tricks to make it easier and possible in an hour or less. when you do a rear spring alone, you have to...
... Yep for sure. Right under the nut looking affair that is at the junction with the steering column. ... WOW, I'm impressed. I have two new bottles of Lucas...
... You didn't mention whether or not you're basing your statement on a single fillup. You need to average AT LEAST 10 fillups to get a good measure of gas...
jim, there are a couple existing holes already there with grommets that seal off other things going thru. IF you must drill a new hole, do it close to the...
... That's where I am now. Power for the Ham radio transceiver on the driver's side and lines to the front strobes on the passenger side. They're pretty hefty...
Just a heads up to the group, I was working on my SO's 92 yesterday and removed the air intake tube to get access to the water pump. When I looked inside the...
thanks for the heads up, Steve. i have been warning people for years about that BOLT ON HP JUNK that does NOTHING for your engine, EXCEPT damage, and to NEVER...
Not sure if the thing actually did anything for performance or not, didn't notice any difference in off idle around town running yesterday with it out. ...
Yep, I'll gladly sell it. It is the original 84 Z-51 rear spring. $50 bucks and shipping and it's yours. What a difference a rear spring makes. No more...
the only thing that airfoil makes move faster, is YOUR cash relocating to the paarts guys pocket! the slip in air foil cannot possibly improve anything in a...
the 85 is a step toward softer. when the 84 came out, GM was out to set a standard in handling, not comfort. they needed the best possible stats they could...
What about an early 86? Doug Leppard ________________________________ From: c4corvette@yahoogroups.com [mailto:c4corvette@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of leesvet...
Bill I'd be interested in your take on the difference in ride after you've driven a while. My 84 is a Z51 and needless to say rides like a go cart with solid ...

I'll let you know about the front one as soon as I do it. The body control (roll) doesn't seem to be affected by the rear spring. It's a whole different...
Seems like with something as "stiff" by passenger car standard as the Vette is, little changes do make a big difference. I swapped of some road race spec...

Posted a picture to the files section showing the cracked Air Foil. I don't know how long the unit was installed before it cracked, sure glad a big chunk...
Well, I finally got a fuel pressure gauge, hooked it up and everything seems to be in spec with the book. Holds about 36 psi after the pump primes (engine off)...
