I use the Delco Plugs and wires and have had no problems

Hi Guys I wonder if anyone has a solution to my problem.
Yesterday I lowered the tail end of my 90 Vert. The car always sat a bit lower on the drivers side, after lowering it I still have the same problem it sits 3/8" lower on the Driver side.
How do I correct this problem?
Thanks for any help.

Looks great!

Hi guys, I've been pretty busy lately. A week ago I got my 4 post lift delivered and yesterday I got the "high lift" added to my garage door. Today my son-in-law and I added some additional lights and electrical plugs. Next on the agenda is to build some cabinets to replace the the old shelves that we had when we moved in 22 years ago to clean up the area in front of the lift. I'm also going to look at having some aluminum ramps built as the steel ones that came with the lift are heavy and a PITA to move around. I've also got to have some brackets made to hang the wheels for moving the lift around. Still lots to do, but I'm making headway.

Here's the garage after getting the lift installed, but the garage door hasn't been "high lifted" yet.

Now I've got the door fixed here is what it looks like. My son-in-law standing under the vette, lift all the way up.

Here's a shot of all three of my vehicles in the garage.

That area up in front is where I'll be building my cabinets.

Chris,

Are you going to eat the chicken?

You could always send it here, I'm sure I could get a some boatguys and frogs to partake in that science experiment with me. Shoot if the timing is right, I have a couple of Army SF buddies coming down soon and I'll may be able to get them to indulge in a tasty canned feast.

LOL

happy easter

hi case and bogus,
thanks for the replies.
i took a look in the fsm and found two pages that list all the colors and 4 plugs with the wires and what they mean and do.
i tell ya though it is going to be quite a darn task to do this job.
there a 5 flying wires, red/battery, earth wire/black, 2 orage wires/fuel pump,1 grey wire for ignition switched 12 v,1 green wire/auxilery wire,
i have installed ecu box under glove compartment and fitted large rubber grommet thru fire wall with wire loom going thru it,
then there is the rest of the wires,
trigger/2 wires and grey cord of wires/4 wires,
coolent/2 wires,rd speedo /3 wires,air/2 wires,o2/3 wires,injectors/5 wires,idle/4 wires,t.p.s /3 wires,ignitioon wires/6 wires,m.a.p /3 wires and p.w.m /5 wires.
i will give you a example of what im confused about,
connector d plug lists injectors 2 4 6 8 driver- dark green,injector ground- black/white wire, then injectors 1 3 5 7 driver dark blue,injector ground black/white,
ok so there are 4 wires found on plug, but the clors on the haltech dont match the wires on the plug colors, then there still is a spare wire to connect with,wtf!!
this elecetronic stuff beats me.
i was hoping not to hav eto pay some one $ 800.00 to have towire this darn thing!!
oh well.
any way " HAPPY EASTER TO ALL " GUYS
cheers
glen

Thats what i figured

I fixed you sig... the img tags are silly... now... can you make the picture just a little bit smaller??? thanks!

midnight is right. There are some differences in the Corvette version of the 700R4. For example, OD will engage with the throttle floored.

a leaky multec has never happened... NOT.

you have a problem with the injectors. If it isn't a bad injector, it's a bad o-ring.

as for the code: how many miles are on this car? Is the MAF original? Are the relays original?

IIRC, the headlight relays are the same as the MAF. I would consider swapping relays and testing to see if the headlights work.

Glad to hear they arrived!

I guess no one has seen anything like this before.

I got my static clings, now if Mother Nature would just let me get the car out so I can show them off.

nope. no asking the audience, mostly, because they are playing, too.

I want you all to know, datawiz used to run a game just like this at a different forum. I set a record for 7 of 10. So be thankful I am not playing. I won a nice set of Lloyds mats for that one.

Your a/c will come on no matter what the temperature is outside. If you're turning on the a/c and the compressor doesn't kick in then it has leaked it's charge out. Take it to a pro, find and fix the leak and then you should be set.

Another drawback to Aamco, they will probably just replace your trans with another one that will not be Corvette specific. Bogus is right on, PeteK is THE man to get hold of for a trans or if you are mechanically inclined you could rebuild the trans yourself like I did, with Pete's help of course. With the proper rebuild manual it's a piece of cake.

Yea, you are really gonna need the FSM for this task. All the wires are there, but you will need the FSM to integrate the Haltech with the car. There is just no other way to do it.

Think about this for 30 seconds. AAMCO is charging about double the prevailing rate for that rebuild, wo when it does blow up, they won't eat much the 2nd time around...

If it was my car, I would consider converting to a 5spd.

Otherwise, drop a PM to PeteK. He is THE man when it comes to these trannys.

I think my definition may be pretty old- I don't have a box dedicated to code 84, or disabling the auto trans in my switch list. I sent an email to TunerCat on Froday, but no word yet.

It is a relatively minor issue, but it forced the issue of getting an updated definition file.

i r jus me mid 85...prolly like many ahere a non conformist refugee wahahahaha...jus had ac charged in dec ...but cold here so it ain commin on (hope it dint leak out they tested it) but thanks fer the answer ifn comp dont run neither will fan...so i r prolly awright..but again i play one day n shovel the next ...thats prolly why babble here so much..cant touch it may as well learn n aggravate you cats

Looks like my transmission bit the bullet yesterday. LOUD grinding/rubbing noise, especially in reverse, and that's at a complete stop. It's an automatic.

Unfortunately, my wife was driving it at the time and hasn't let me forget it yet -- probably won't for a very long time. :shaking: The only positive side of that is that she can't blame it on my fast driving -- and, no, I don't dare say anything to her about her lead foot.

Anyway, can anyone recommend a quality repair shop in or around Raleigh, North Carolina? My current option is to get a rebuild with lifetime warranty from Aamco for about $2,800. The money doesn't bother as much as Aamco does. I have declared the car undriveable at this point, so would have to get it hauled there.

I'll second what Bogus said, Taylors and NGKs are all I use.
Plugs, wires and fuel filters are maintainence items. Cleaning the TB is easy and inexpensive.
If you know these items are in good shape, your diagnosis will be a little easier.

THats strange, you cant view the cheesy slideshow?

COngratulations. Sounds like everyone made out well on this one

Don't ask me how it happens, but once in a Blue Moon something actually nice happens. Glad you had a good day.

Well I know that these are the five possible codes for the 1967 model year. I have a realy good idea which one it could be. Can I ask the audience?

I found a stash of old Road and Tracks etc, and found this article. I really like the part about how the suspensions were modified by Herb Adams, especially where they say a brace is added to control A Arm bending. Is this a Camber brace precursor? WHo knows. But I would like to find Herb Adams website and ask them. Do they have one, a website that is?

Have a look in the service manual and find which wire is the 12v ignition on for the standard ECM, and use that mate.

hi guys,
im starting to install my e6x haltech stand along ecu set up on my 1991 vette to run this 8 t/b individual cross ram intake manifold i have as the standard ecm with a modified chip will not run this 8 t/b intake unfortunetly..

what the plan is to run the standard computer to run the most of the car and the heltech to run the engine side of the car !!
can any one please advise me where to find " igniton on 12 volts " wire, but can not connect to "acc" outputs wire though,prefeberly close to standard ecm area of engine bay ??

and next question is to find where to connect to " fuel pump circuit " wires please ??

hope some one can please help and advise me .
cheers

I think this will be the only section I frequent.


Went down for a Corvette function, one of my customers who I built a 402 for his C5 lives there. I was tossed the keys and given some time with his car at the track. I was only 6 seconds of his pace (His home track and he does about a dozen events there every year).

The ECM switch turns off the CAGS DTC, or its meant to, but i think its called C.A.R.S. in the tunercat file.

If you havent gone to the bottom of the switch list and unchecked the box for DTC 84, it will still come up even if you have CAGS turned off.

If your car used to be an auto, have you switched the Auto Trans check box off?

I am betting Ohms Law is kicking you in the ass. Just too much load on the line. I would check the voltage and see what is what.

I also wonder if the tach filter isn't dying or dead...

hm... I know that Ecklers sells a cap that will fake out the PCM.

I don't know what the "ECM Switch" does... I would expect a dedicate cags setting.

I like Taylor wires and NGK plugs.

If there hasn't been a tune up or filter replacement, I would go ahead and do it.

I would also remove and clean the throttle body.

I drive the car everyday and it has been running fine. I just went to eat tonight and it ran fine but on the way home it started skipping really bad . Even at high speeds it runs like crap! Could it be the fuel filter, spark plugs or the spark plug wires? If I hold the gas just aliddle in park it idles up and down and if I give it just a tad more gas it idles really ruff. What is the best plugs to put in a 91 coupe and what is the best wires to have.

my mom's house is on a 1/2 acre... the back yard was at a slope, not steep, but enough that when pushing a mower, it got REAL heavy!

So tractor time it was!

When I used to drive distances, I would plan things only the lotto could pay for. one of those was an ornate, water feature ladened back garden/oasis. It woulda been cool.

that's about how my day went at the camera shop when I got the new Nikon....

I am genuinely conflicted.

I am all for for freedom of expression. But I don't want this site to get the reputation of being a bash site.

So I have found the happy medium... let the OP vent... let a couple of people commiserate, then lock. Perfect.

Thats the muffler for the middle of the car, not for the rear.

this has been addressed.

what year?

true duals truly suck. you need an xpipe to help balance the exhaust out.

wow. more questions than answers, really.

So i peeled the paper off and rolled it out of the booth/garage. I think its about Torch red in the sun.
