Default C4 threads on The Vette Barn

I haven't been here long; however, as far as I can tell there really isn't much discussion actually related to C4s on The Vette Barn.


Why is there a dearth of C4 discussion?

If we wanted to talk about cars we would go to CF

Actually, it comes up occasionally and we always offer information and help, it's just that most of us are well beyond the "what part is this" or "what oil do I use" posts and are all pretty self sufficient.

Welcome to The Barn nOOb.

Now to answer your question, what is it you don't know about a 30 year old car yet? Let me remind you this is not the CF and those types of questions are not allowed here. If you are not a DIY and would like to know about oil, tires, headers dexcool and opti stay in the Corvette Forum.



PS: Moderators will not wipe off your tears in here.

Well said Pete, and here's a perfect example Mike, of a moronic nOOb on CF

I'm thinking of getting a K&N filter and eliminating the problem. thanks!!

He's not going to change it. He'll pay his mechanic that's younger than the car, $50 to change it. Next year it will be for sale because he can't afford it.
