Pete, Sami had some suggestions and this morning I turned the key on but did not start the car. I ran it through the gears using the button on top of the shifter and then depressed the brake pedal and running it through the gears again using the button.

I decided to try it on the road and it shifted the way it always did? Does the shift button do any kind of reset?

I've had the car for 11 or 12 years now and drive it pretty hard when I do take it out but never had this issue!

I want to thank you for the transmission rebuild details, I have already read through it, but don't relish the thought of having to do it, good winter project which is just around the corner here!! LOL

Thanks Pete, Sami reminded me of you, thanks for the reply I have to wait till the wife wakes up to turn the compressor on! I left the vette on the lift but didn't press the up button!

I'll start off with an apology, my bad, I don't visit this site very often, only if I need help, which I do!

Lent the vert to my son (really bad idea) now I can get off the lift in reverse and put it in drive. Starts to move in first but won't shift out of first!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where do I start?

Thanks for any guidance given!

Hi Andy

Took offence to being called OLD! LOL ! So I updated my AVATAR, maybe I am but I did get to stroke off the Newfoundland Targa from my bucket list. Five days of rallying in Newfoundland last September, one of the best times I have ever had driving fast and legally on provincial highways and city streets, would love to do it again, but the banker says no, at least for this year! I joined up with two other GM cars a full race Camaro and Nova or a derivative of one. I had to thank them in the end as we one the Kenzie cup for the marquee team, GM!
I think Jim Kenzie called it the goverment cup!

PS it's been a long time since I've come to this site and it has certainly changed from the original, I'll have to become a more frequent visitor, again a time issue!

I'm trying to get a hold of Jeffvette, i JUST realized (figured out) he won't be on the "other" forum! Or maybe another name?

I PM's him in December about acquiring a coversion kit for my front brakes and he wrote that he might have some early in the new year, his machinist was back logged in work!

Anyone here know how I can get in touch with Jeff?

Thanks John.

Thanks for the brake fluid lesson, I'm in the middle of collecting parts for C5 calipers and rotors on my 88 and the article will help in my decision as to what fluid goes in!

It's been a while since I last visited this site, mostly it was the delay in loading pages, and sadly patience is not one of my virtues.

Good work Bogus, now I’ll keep coming back for advice and help when needed!
