No, you cannot make your Corvette into a station wagon

The battery is behind the driver seat

1-8-7-2-6-5-4-3

No you cannot run your Corvette on biodiesel

The synthetic will hold up better

If it seperates no biggie use JB Weld to put it back together

What are you an idiot what a stupid question hahahaha I can't belive you would ask such a stupid question

The battery is under the driver's side dash. Good luck.

1-8-7-2-6-5-4-3

No you cannot run your Corvette on 87

The synthetic will help your engine seal

If it seperates no biggie use spray foam to put it back together
Edited to be consistantly wrong.

What kind of engine are you running - Ford?

Every good Chevy intake says 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2.

It's to keep the headlights up when the motor's off.

It's for the OEM burglar alarm.

It's to release the tele- part of the steering wheel to move it in or out.

27 1/2 inches.

Sounds like a vacuum leak.

No.

Yes.

To reduce radio interference.

Pull the little cap off the end of the cylinder and turn the nut back and forth till it stays centered.

Regular after '72.

Lots of PB Blaster and a big hammer.

You can do it without pulling the body, but it's a bitch.

Try adding some Positraction additive first.

Rotor runout.

That's where the body panels were joined and it is typical.

Yeah, that's a bitch too.

Do a search, lots has been written about that.

If you use a drop base air cleaner.

Check your air pressures, shocks, and bushings.

Either buy a pressure bleeder or get a friend to help.

Maybe Norval can help with that one.

Only on big blocks.

It's connected with the downshift switch on the gas pedal.

'77 and later.

'72 and earlier, but you can do it with parts from those.

Yes, we heard about the car stolen in '68......
