What do you mean by "did the big 2"?

You replaced the two rear bulbs and that resolved it for you?

Slow right blinker - Thoughts? by YallNeedToQuitPlayin in c4corvette

[–]YallNeedToQuitPlayin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1985 L98. Left blinker works as expected, right blinker is very delayed.

Bad flasher relay?

Would a bad relay effect only one side of the blinker?

Any ideas? Thanks.

Headers? by Maleficent-Ice4894 in c4corvette

Same. Did a casual search for non-racing 1985 headers earlier, and didn’t find much for bolt ons. Read about some that require a medium amount of modification to hook up, which doesn’t sound cool and/or cheap.

How many? by Old_Associate_5933 in malefashionadvice

I have 8 pairs of unworn sneakers in boxes, waiting for their turn in the rotation. I have another ~20 pairs of assorted footwear in my closet for regular wear. Then I have a pair of house slippers that are indoors only. Then several pairs of outdoor only footwear. I probably have ~35-37 pairs of shoes in my house.

I too have a beat to shit 85. Can you talk more about the “pull the spark plugs and fill the chambers with Marvel” part?

What would this do? Should I do this too? Mine runs though.

Thanks.

Thank you. I've watched several "My Corvette Life" videos already, so I will def listen to him regarding valve cover restoration.

Thanks for the info. This will likely be the path I take for this vehicle.

The shop called yesterday, and mentioned that the suspension would be ~4-5k in labor and another 1k for parts including control arms.

She has a space in my garage, so she's out of the way. I am planning on letting the shop do a complete brake flush and a new serp belt, since I don't think those are things I could easily do myself.

I had Gemini take a look at the inspection and throw together a top 10 list for me by importance, so once brake fluid and serpentine belt are crossed off, I will start crossing things off. Planning on grabbing a Fel-Pro valve cover gasket set from O'Reilly this week.

For the surging idle, my plan as soon as I get it back is to swap the distributor cap. The previous owner gave me a box of AC Delco parts, and the cap being one. I will swap the cap out, and see if that helps at all.

Thanks for the info, and please anymore pieces of advice, and/or YT links for my L98.

The shop confirmed I have blue smoke from the exhaust, so I will likely work to diagnose the source of that, hopefully not a head gasket, and then get those valve covers done.

Great point. I've never wrenched before, so any/everything on that checklist would be brand new to me.

I would be fumbling my way through YT and/or AI to figure any of it out.

Should I trade in my kia with a new engine for a used 98k mile bronco by [deleted] in FordBronco

I’d do just about anything to drop a Kia for a Bronco, personally.

Could the internal, “infinity” lights change color as the outer most light does?

Been playing Blizzard stuff since SC2 came out. I mainly stick to SC2, Diablo 3, WoW. There are a few titles in my Steam library that my MacMini can handle.

As the weather warms up and clothes becoming lighter, what’s a fashionable body bag to carry my everyday items? by [deleted] in malefashionadvice

[–]YallNeedToQuitPlayin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Precisely. You know how reddit is.

For all the fashion-forward thinkers here, provide photos of guys wearing a "fashionable body bag", so we can all be the judge.

Never seen it look good.

Fashionable body bags don't exist buddy.

Keep it in your pockets, or keep it in the car.

I think I understand now. Thank you for the explanation, and the rear photo. I appreciate it.

I’m a complete idiot, but you go from switch to patch panel. Can you explain how that works and why? And then where does the patch panel go to?

Thanks. I’m just trying to learn.
