Default LG's Rocks !

Guys:

So my battery went dead in Feb/March ish.... Ever since then I have been noticing a little "twitch" when cruising at 1500-2500 rpm. Its hard to describe but just a mild little shudder/hesitation every so often while cruising. I spoke with Louis over at LG's and he said its likely my low fuel trims not set right after the battery change. Louis said to drive it more and it should learn it out. That was a month or so ago and it was still doing it. I don't get a lot of time to really drive my car with work/4yr old son etc... I only have 15000 miles on it in 5 years. There are a bunch of Vette events happening in May so I called today and asked if they could just tune it out for me. They said bring it right over. I pulled in to LG's and Sean jumped with his computer. Sean had the computer on his lap and we went for a 15 min cruise. Sean noticed few things that could be fine tuned that should fix it for me. It will be another week or so before I get to get out cruising again but the drive home it did not do the shudder at all. My fingers are crossed that thats got it fixed. Sean said bring it back if I find its still doing it and they will investigate more.

Thanks to the boys at LG's (Sean/Louis) for there expert help at a moments notice ! They continue to impress me with there expertise and there customer service !

I owe you a lunch on me guys !

I know they like Dickey's BBQ too... I'm open though. Bad part is that I work Mon-Fri and that leaves Sat. Im just finishing up some "required vacation" today. I have to work this Sat for a problem, and next Sat got the Corvette of Dallas show, and the Sat after that I got my 2 brothers in town for the Lone Star event.... Just so busy with crap lately. I will get them both out for lunch though as soon as I can... I always make good on promises !

I agree... Im less than 5 mins from them.

Downside is that they are so close it sure is easy to spend $$$ on all the latest products .... Not sure my wife is all that happy about it... She is really cool with my hobby though (thankfully cause I'd hate to see her go.... )
