    Jonathan you made that all look pretty effortless. I struggled like crazy doing mine. The foam along the sides was crazy on mine.

    Installation tool kit comes with a knurled nut that screws on the adapter and snugged in the center screw, so the adapter doesn’t get stuck in the crankshaft when it comes to removing the tool.Late comment better than never.Good video.By the way you notice the timing mark on pulley always lines up with the crankshaft key.

    The easy way of putting on a car cover on the Corvette is you put the front of the cover on first and make sure it's hooked to the front and pull it to the back of the car and make sure you have the antenna hole cut for that so it fits easy over it and just pull down on the cover gently and that you have it with our it coming off

      @Motorcycology 2 місяці тому

      That's a tough one. I'd troubleshoot the circuit with a multimeter at the point of the contacts on the horn...of you have no continuity when you press the horn...check fuses, relay again...check continuity at the horn buttons,.meaning that when you press done on the button to engage, do you get continuity? I'll try and think of other ideas as well.

My new hose that has proper size for my thermostat housing neck was too big for new radiator top inlet, maybe thermostat housing not stock. I bought size reducer, put it in radiator inlet and no issue after 2 years. Also drilled 2 small holes in thermostat skirt. Good luck!
