Tuning up......
1. Opti-spark
2. Water pump
3. Fuel filter
4. Air filter
5. Plugs
6. Plug Wires
7. Checking the injector ohms
8. Checking fuel pressure at idle
9. Checking fuel pressure under load
10. Cleaning the throttle body
Swapping out the gromet for the power antenna and putting in a new antenna while I am at it.
This should make it run like a sexually assaulted ape!
Anything else I should do while I am at it? I already changed the oil a few weeks ago.
Thanks!

I want it like a new car.
Plan to buff and wax it pretty soon too so the exterior looks as good as the inside.

Pretty much the ol' girl is ready for summer. Only other thing is I will probably change all the weather stripping. I changed the outer window seals (took me only about 1 hour to do both) and want to change the rest too.I am with you. I would LOVE to make mine faster but I have other financial obligations. College is mighty expensive when you foot the bill yourself. Also have to make sure I can pay the monthly bills of owning a home. Thank GOD that I own my home free and clear or I wouldnt be able to make it. If I pick up another part time job I might try to do a few things to the car but unless I find another job I am stuck with just owning a STOCK convertible corvette.
