Default General maintenance questions

I just purchased my first Corvette. I got a 2002 convertible with 55k on the clock. I was wanting to do some general maintenance to the car. Fuel filter, differential fluid change, pcv, plugs wires, etc.

I was wanting to see if there was a website that had a list of technical "how-to" documents.

For example, I also have a 2000 z28 with ls1. Here is a good reference website for maintenance. http://installuniversity.com/install...sity/index.htm

Thanks!

I've used the ls1howto web site a number of times for some good information. You could also try:

Invest the money in your year's service manuals. Mines paid for themselves with all the information that I've gotten from them. Enjoy your Vette!
