Default Forum Dose It Again

I developed a miss in my 1990 a few weeks ago and did not think I would make it home. I thought somthing serious was wrong but could not check it till today. I used the info from the Forum and found after checking ohm reading on injectors that 7 had a reading of 15 and one was an 8. Replaced low reading injector and all is well. Thanks to the Forum for all the info that I needed to solve the problem.

This forum has been brought up in our Club Meetings a time or so the past few years as a very good and RELIABLE source of information. It has helped me a few times. Even some of the simplest things are made difficult on the Vette.

I found out how to replace my battery. Who in their right mind would put a battery where my 87 is and who would make you become a body man to replace it ? I would love to find that engineer and make him serve his time in the afterlife having to replace C4 batteries for all time and eternity

C4's are 1000 times easier to work on than the Junk they are building today other than the C6 Corvette & Mustang.

Get a job as mechanic like me for a living.
2 weeks later you will agree if you make it past the 2nd day & flat rate time every shop owner in the USA is concerned about.
Pinching pennies.

Wait till the china cars are here mainstream...........

While we are on the subject, if your car still has Multec injectors you are running on borrowed time. I good preventive maintenance procedure would be to replace them.

Pretty sure it's the same genius who put the blower relay circuit fuse in-line behind the coolant tank on my 90....
