Subject: Re: 95 Vette - will not crank (behaves like there is no gas - there is) by UK_Moe_Vet on 2008/3/6 14:17:25 Dear All Thanks so much for your tremendous levels of support - can't tell you how much I appreciate it! 95Vette had asked me "Scan it for codes. If you get 16 or 36 I would bet the previous owner washed the engine and ruined the optispark." Will do - Thanks to the above links to the Owners Manual (which I have now downloaded) I am going to work out how to get the codes to display (do I need the car to be running to get this feed-back? as it does not yet run). Is a ruined Optispark a big repair? (note to self) To a large extent this really was a bit of an impulsive blind purchase .... convincing my girlffirend that we (I) really do need 2 corvettes (one in Toronto and one here) took a small act of god to accomplish (whom I am still thanking every time I ssslide behind the wheel). However now I find myself thinking 'was I too eager' ... at the time I figure 'hell I'll get it going' .... always better to regret something you have done than something you haven't ... I guess!! 95Vette - it is a left hand drive (did not know you could convert them to right hand side (being from Toronto driving from the left is not a problem for me). Is your son at RAF Lakenheath (a USAFE base)? I am in Milton Keynes - he is about 70 miles (hour and 20 mins drive East). Does he like the UK? Thanks again all for your help and interest - will keep you all in the loop kev |
