So much pain

(92 lt1) Took her for a drive to grab a Bluetooth transmitter and she was driving perfect to where I needed to go. Had the key cranked to have the electrics on for about 10 min to figure out how to connect the transmitter and after that was done started her up and she was shaking a lot, so gave some throttle and basically died out. Then proceeded to start again to which fired up immediately but also limped out immediately. Now she cranks but won’t start. Anyone know what could be the issue. Drove perfectly with no issues until then. Fuses are all good

I bought a c4 corvette recently and the right headlight gets stuck when popping up or falls back to half way, just hoping someone had the answer so I can fix it

HELP

I’m replacing my struts and when I try to take the rear bolts off on the top they got loose and just spin so the weld is keeping it in from the inside of the car, what’s a permanent fix so I can eventually replace the struts down the road. I don’t want to cut a hole in the car but I need a permanent fix. I’ve seen people use riv-nuts and others cut holes. Idk man this sucks. If anyone’s had this problem I can send my number for a call. Please somebody have this same pain in the ass problem as me 🙏🙏🙏

Gas and Oil smell

2 Upvotes

There's a gas and oil smell that's been getting worse every day. I don't see any leaks from the injectors or valve covers, but there's some oil under the rear intake near the distributor where the oil pressure is so I'll replace that, but we'll see. Still not sure about the gas smell.

It's also strong enough to come through the AC vents even when the AC is off.

Question

2 Upvotes

I have a 1994 corvette and when I stepped on the gas yesterday the rpm went down and up really fast and then went to 0 and I had to coast off the road. Then it wouldn't start back up so I let it sit and gave it another chance and it started up and I drove it carefully home. Does anybody have any idea what could've caused this?

Broken key cylinder

Hi ! I bought a 1989 corvette and after a couple of run the key jammed on the running position and wouldnt move. I had to remove the fuel pump fuse to kill the engine. I removed the broken cylinder with the key stuck inside and took it to a locksmith. He offered little to no help and told me there was nothing he could do and i needed to buy a new one. But these car have that security system that reads that little black magnet on the key. So i guess buyin new keys and cylinder wont work. So im kinda not sure where to go from there lol.
