Chevy Corvette

I had a 68 a long time ago which takes me back..........I wish I could help but I have found a place that really does help all Vette owners when they have questions like yours. I�m directing you to a website: www.corvetteforum.com

This website was developed by Corvette owners for Corvette owners and it�s run and maintained by Corvette owners of all years.

The forum is broken into 6 groups, each group representing a generation of Corvettes. C1 is model years 53-62 C2 is 63-67, C3 is 68-83, C4 is 85-96, C5 is 97-04, C6 is 2005 til present

Use the website & find the forum year you need. You will find topics like: General discussion, Parts for sale, Performance, Cars for sale and TECH.

Decide which area best suits your question and use the search function to find if it has been answered before. If not, then post your question. Vette owners will either answer your questions directly or point you where to look for answers. I use this forum everyday.

The Corvette Forum website is not SPAM.

iam pretty sure this fule filter is in the gas tank just below the sending unit

Idle is set by the computer.

It means that your car was made when fuel economy was considered very important. To shift into a higher gear will reduce the number of engine revolutions per minute needed to maintain a given speed. However, it will also result in poor combustion, which ultimately will lead to deposits in the engine, which will reduce fuel economy. Ignore the light.

Yes, but it would be extremely difficult, probably more expensive and definitely take longer than ordering a fuel injection system from a performance parts retailer (like Summit Racing). The '77 won't have an Engine Management System (EMS) or On Board Diagnostics (OBD), so you'll need the computer and wiring. Easiest thing would be an engine swap with the wiring harness, computer and the transmission. I added the transmission because most EMS control transmission shift points. For me this would be an electrical nightmare, but if you're good with wiring schematics, you can accomplish it. Edelbrock makes a system for $2319 and sells it through SummitRacing: http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=EDL%2D3507&N=700+%2D114145+115&autoview=sku This system has just about everything needed, you'll still need an electric pump for sure and distributor.

the original rims for that vehicle have air pressure sensors built in them. if you replaced the rims, you would have to replace the sensors also. now, if you only replaced the tires, the sensors may have been damaged during installation.

technically, yes if you bought an adapter if it needed one to begin with but if you have the car and the rims try it...i dont know if they havve the same amount of lugs tho...but im 16 what do i know 2nd opinion: Yes. I'm not too sure what ^^ is talking about with the adapter but, measurements will need to be taken. The obvious new tires with the rims will need to be bought because of the 84 rims being 255/50/16 I believe, and the 2000 rims could be whatever you want. Besides that, the hub in which the rims sit on needs to be the same size to spec, as well as if the rims are going to be offset (yes for the rear, and not so much for the front since it messes up your camber, toe, etc.)

Right next to the drivers side front marker light, in the headlight area.

The only question I can think of is "How much do you want for it?" Asking the seller questions will really do no good, as he may lie. Take the car to a qualified, trusted, mechanic and have him look the car over for you. The money you pay him will be money well spent. You may also want to take it to a trusted body shop, and have it checked for previous collision damage. Body damage on a Corvette if not repaired correctly can lead to headaches down the road. Remember the saying, "Buyer Beware". Protect yourself.

you didnt metion if they are universal lug pattern, if its not take the tires off and check the matting surface, sometimes small flakes of rust get between the rotor and the rim.

Should be located just in front of the radiator near the headlights. One on each side.

1990 A new Corvette ZR-1 model debuts and a driver-side airbag becomes a standard feature.

On your 4.9 L ( 300 cubic inch ) straight 6 cyl , the marked # 1 position on your distributor cap faces AWAY from the engine . ( If it's next to the engine , the cap is installed 180 degrees out , flip it around ) The rotor turns CLOCKWISE and the spark plug firing order is ( 1-5-3-6-2-4 )

Remove the air intake duct, if necessary. Refer to Air Cleaner Assembly Replacement in Engine Controls - 5.7 L. Install a breaker bar with hex-head socket to the drive belt tensioner bolt. Rotate the drive belt tensioner clockwise in order to relieve tension on the accessory drive belt. Remove the accessory drive belt from the pulleys and tensioner. Slowly release tension on the drive belt tensioner. Remove the breaker bar and socket from the drive belt tensioner bolt. Clean and inspect the drive belt surfaces of all the pulleys. Route the accessory drive belt around all the pulleys except the water pump pulley and tensioner. Install a breaker bar with hex-head socket to the drive belt tensioner bolt. Rotate the drive belt tensioner clockwise in order to relieve tension on the drive belt tensioner. Install the accessory drive belt under the water pump pulley. Install the accessory drive belt onto the drive belt tensioner. Slowly release the tension. Remove the breaker bar and socket from the drive belt tensioner bolt. Install the air intake duct, if necessary. Refer to Air Cleaner Assembly Replacement in Engine Controls - 5.7 L. Inspect the accessory drive belt for correct alignment.

Either the battery has a dead cell which is draining it or, something is on which s drawing power.
