Subject: Re: 95 Vette - will not crank (behaves like there is no gas - there is) by UK_Moe_Vet on 2008/4/3 16:38:30 NOT SO GOOD NEWS (maybe) The mechanic whom is working on the car GOT IT GOING ... but he also wrote "Well, it is now running. Wiring all repaired, new plug wired into loom etc. Started straight away. But engine very rattly. Codes up, indicating new cold start sensor needed. Fitted that , old one broken. So, it may have been running very rich for a long time, diluting oil. Now about to change the oil ,before any damage done. Noted ‘Quad-driver’ fault in ECM, but this is not affecting running or raising a code. Just for info, why not call me when you have read this. regards Tom Falconer, Claremont Corvette" After calling him seems there is a possiblilty engine is buggered (he said it is firing on all 8 cylinders) and previous ownser said it ran fine till it stopped (however previous owner has been a tad less than honest to date) any thoughts on what the rattling could be (good or bad I'm ready for it) thanks all PS I am flying back to Canada next Wednesday for 2 months - I bet I don't even drive her before I go back (uggg!) many thanx kev |
