It's nice to have a forum to go to for help but if the OP does not reply with a solution or is still fighting the problem and doesn't complete his thread this forum is useless.

I see many threads started with no solutions or the problem is fixed with out a courtesy of closer.

Just trying to help all of us to make this forum a well of knowledge.

I always find it useful to see things closed out on a thread. If not, then it like watching a 2 hour movie that ends at 1:50 leaving you wondering how it ended.

Have you ever checked out this sticky?

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-c...ok-inside.html

And inside of that thread, here's another useful link:

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-c...questions.html

I did forget to mention that some of the end results of work on C6s may show up there.

What's even worse is no polite "thank you" to the answer or answerer.
Or a "hey, you were right !" would work too ...

or....do you remember the game where 10 people are in line, and the first person is told something and its always interesting to find out what the last person was told. Like that game, I have found numerous times where I read the original OP, then go to the last posted response. More often than not, the last post has absolutely nothing to do with the OP.
