That's geographical racist profiling! Not all folks in Cali smoke weed. Everyone knows those North of Bakersfield eat shrooms and snort meth.

Please, in the future, get your facts before you speak.

I am new to the site and also to Corvette's... But I HATE someone who tries to tell me something JUST because I am a woman. I am sure I will have some stupid questions at some point but geez!!

I went to a chain auto part store looking for a replacement cigarette lighter (a fix I easily performed) The guy obviously thought I was stupid and started telling me all kinds of crap about my car that I KNEW was not correct. I finally asked him if he could order a cap I was missing under the hood that said 710 for my 84 vette. He said... SURE! I will have the part in tomorrow. I asked him was it was for and he said Power Steering Fluid.

710 = OIL upside down

That does not happen just because you are a gal.....although you will get more than your share of it I'm sure. When you go back to get your "710" see if they have the new model muffler bearing that reduces back pressure and increases gas mileage. That ought to start a whole line of BS (grin) Good hunting !!

later, tiny
