Help In Denver!
Hello All -
Glad to be a member and on the forum. I really need your help in Denver! I have a pair of '90 FX3 coupes (auto & 6-sp), and I am in desperate need of a qualified, reasonably priced mechanic to do some moderate repairs. Gaskets, main seal, ECM diagnosis, car running hot, etc. I haven't been able to enjoy either car (low 60k mile cars) at all this summer and I'm starting to lose my joy of owning the cars. They're both stock, and I just want them to run correctly. Actually, the 6-sp car will be listed for sale as soon as I can get it sealed up. I just can't find anyone who is dedicated and interested in working on C4's. Please help - I'm ready to get the cars in immediately. I can be emailed at rocklandsteelllc@gmail.com.
Thank You Very Much -
Derek

Much Appreciated,

Just spoke with Derek, hes got a Steel Blue Metallic 6spd z51 fx3 for sale that sounds awesome. It wont work for me but just wanted to drop this note here. Sounds like its only issue is an oil drip after a new clutch install.
Nice speaking with you Derek and i sure encourage you to list the car here on the forum in the C4 for sale section, I think you will find we are a great group of guys and gals here. You will have to get that baby off the 4 post and take some pics for us.

Dang it, I would so help too…but I’m over 17hrs away! The RMS seal leaking sounds a lot like what I inflicted on myself… guessing you had a shop replace the clutch and do the RMS while in there, and now it leaks?

Yes, that's my best guess. The car is very nice; I don't think I have 50 miles on the new clutch (OEM stock type, direct replacement).
The car has been sitting up on my car lift all summer long just waiting for someone to help. The two best known shops in Denver both have bad if not indifferent reputations. Really trying to find a qualified mechanic who knows C4 Corvettes.......and I just cannot come up with anyone.
