  1. I looked at a 996 today everything worked except the turn signals, and each side had a different problem. 1) when I tried to turn the righ hand signal on it wouldn't catch and stay. I could hold it but the second i released it it would return to it's neutral position 2) When I turned the left hand signal on it wouldn't return to the neutral position. I'm thinking there's a problem in the column..duh So what do you think the degree of difficulty is in this repair..or what do you think the problem could be ? Thanks mace
  2. First guy out bought it Lock it up mace
  3. Bump for a sunny day and a small project
  4. More I forgot: it has a 8 month old optima red top and a fitted cover I drove it last night it has 109200 miles on it but will go up mace
  5. Oh yeah the drivers head light motor needs a new gear..it works but is making a noise when it shuts. you have to pull the tab off and out it on the broken one then set and turn it..it just needs a new tab And ac works great
  6. It's an auto with 108-109k. Runs great I'm the 3rd owner my father in law was 2nd and had it forever. Clean cleat title. The good: It's a convertible corvette My father in law replaced the top during his ownership(maybe 8 years ago he doesn't remember exactly) Tires have about 5-6k on them All 4 TPS have been replaced Serpentine belt and tensioner have been replaced(chasing down the squeak but kinda still there) Mobile 1 (of course) Tranny service just done Right front hub replaced Probably for getting something..anyway now for the bad 1226/133 (abs/tcs) error it's a right front hub(replaced) which killed the 1255 error. I'm a member of the corvette forum and they say it's a connection somewhere. It comes on after 35mph in warm weather and 45 in cold. You have to manually move the as the controls are frozen Drivers bolster is really worn Again, maybe something else but I can't remember at the moment. The car is a blast to drive. CR price $7200 You can call me at 614 -- 594--9175 Pics here:
  7. a 38 +p will put a pretty good hole in you
  8. In the early 90s I have a 21/2 car block garage, we had to do a cam in my 3800 and I used 2 propane grills to heat it. Took several days to due never went through either tank but we were in shirt sleeves and jeans working in there. We were toasty warm..lol
  9. The controls on my 98 vette are stuck in the direct blow on you mode. The knob is broken and I have tried to turn it with a pair of pliers but it will not budge. I'm guessing this is cable operated and they are somehow bound up. Can anyone give me any guides on this please? How hard is it to take the unit out and get behind it? Thanks mace
  10. I still have a s3 that my son is constantly griping at me to get rid of. I've been looking to upgrade but not to the newest thing available. I hate spending $800 on a phone so he has shown me the 1+ at $500. I don't know, my still works albeit slow and a bit glichy at times. He has an x but he's been an apple fan boy since forever.
  11. So my son was off work and he started the car pulled the wires off the plugs and found something weird. 3 of the 6 plug were rusted, I thought they may just be discolored so when I got home I pulled the wires and sure enough they are rusted. What might cause the plugs to rust? Would replacing the plugs fix the problem short term and yes the boot plugs showed rust in them. What do you think?? Thank you for the input
  12. I appreciate the offer but this weekend is blink for me. We have family over for a huge Italian dinner. I'm off work next week and will take a run at it . Again Thank you very much mace
  13. Says it's random cylinder misfire car starts but runs extremely rough ...soooo I'm thinking its ignition related. I will begin by pulling each plug wire and see if I'm getting spark on all, but after that I'm a bit lost. I would then think icm but how would I test it? Could it be a maf or would that throw a different code?Any other ideas? Thanks mace
  14. about 2 o'clock today pacing a white vette?
  15. 4-5 years ago I had the front plate ripped off the old man(03 park ave), in a car wash. Before I could get a new plate and mount I got called to Grant hospital my mom was admitted. I parked on the street and when i returned a few hours later one of those walking dick cops ticketed me
