Hard cold start 2004 Corvette

msjba\ker — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 19:39:02 GMT

I have a 2004 Corvette that has around 48500 miles on it, I just bought it used and here in Chicago this winter it has been pretty cold. I drive the car daily, when it starts. I am a female and do not know anything about cars so bear with me. My problem is that every morning for the last 3 weeks I get in the car and turn over the engine and it just cranks. I tried something and it seems to some times work and that is pumping the gas pedal while I crank it. I usually have to pump it alot for about 3 or 4 minutes before it starts. If I don't pump the gas it will not start. A friend told me that I am flooding it by pumping it, I don't think so, that is what makes it start. The rest of the day it is fine. This problem also happens if the car sits for a few days. Any ideas?

Thanks, Juile

SteveS — Sun, 30 Sep 2007 03:47:45 GMT

When I turn off my lights in my 2003 vette, the actuator motor keeps on running for about 5 to 7 seconds after the light is fully retracted.

Do I need to replace the entire actuator, or is there something else I can do?

1996 Vet - Knocks when I start it

Anonymous — Thu, 05 Apr 2007 19:07:56 GMT

It knocks then calms down after 2-3 minutes. I run mobile 1 10/30. Should I try slick 50, or another oil additive? Any ideas other than rebuilding the engine?

Thanks

I have a 69' Corvette 350 in which I have to pump the gas pedal a lot to start the car. I took the air cleaner off and moved the linkage about five times and no gas came out of the jets. What is the problem? JC.

I admit to being a "girl" 86 vette-pace car HELP

ibuck2 — Mon, 25 Jun 2007 02:51:54 GMT

I have reason to believe someone may have placed sugar in my gas tank, and I need to know

the quickest, safest route to flushing my engine so it doesn't blow up. So if anyone knows what would

be the procedure for me to completely flush out my system to accomplish this task, I would forever

be a girl in debt, and very thankful. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

1963 Corvette Stingray for Sale "AS IS"

Dawn — Tue, 19 Jun 2007 22:22:20 GMT

Yes, this is the "split window" Corvette! It was in the process of being restored and I have nearly everything for it except the two headlight "motors" and maybe a few smaller very insignificant parts. This vehicle does not have the original 327 engine block. It does have a strong, running 350 cu. in. engine. It breaks my heart to part with this car....but my health is such that I can no longer drive this car were I to finish restoring it. It is now bare fiberglass, but has been covered. So, I'm selling the car "AS IS" for $27,000.00. Anyone who KNOWS anything about the 1963 Corvette Stingray knows that only 4,000 of them were made, and there are less than half of them left. Many fools took the "post" out of the back window which virtually destroys the value of the car. This is a piece of history and a chance for someone to make their dream come true! I may be able to come up with the matching engine block and if I do, then the price for this car will be an additional $3,000.00 if you want it. I am not certain as yet if I can come up with that engine block, but I am trying to.

Please email me if you are interested! dawnneff@charter.net

Power antenna removal

Can someone please share the easiest way of removing the power antenna from a 1986 corvette. I have found 2 nuts that are used for attaching the motor mounting bracket but after removal the motor assembly does not come out of the deck.

1991 Corvette, non-ZR

Alan Hill — Sun, 17 Jun 2007 18:35:46 GMT

1991 Chevy Corvette. Have changed out all filters, oil, plugs, etc. Runs great when cold. As it starts to warm up, it starts cutting out badly and there are times when it will stall at signal lights. When engine gunned, it loses all power and falls on it's nose, plus cuts out worse. Was told catalytic converter, but seems would overheat. Any ideas?
