OK I did the search on the site but really didn't answer my questions. The trans in the car with 40,000 is thm200 confirmed by RPO code. So it's a 3 speed. It acts up at low speed when on and off the throttle. I'm not sure what that is all about. I have a 700r4 out of 86 vette, simple...

I just Bought a set of KYB's for the car(1987 Cutlass Supreme). They showed up and well the fronts don't have boots. I was told when I inquired that I really don't need them. The question is should I buy boots or not? Guess that I'm just not used to seeing them with out something covering the...

There is actually a black trim paint that is available at just about any auto paint store, comes in a rattle can. It's the same stuff that the OEM used to trim out your car. One can goes a long way. So the little extra $$ you put out for it would be worth it. I've used the same paint in spray...

I didn't take it that way... I was laughing cause it's probally true. I know several folks that have had great luck with polishing their plastic lens. I just didn't want to try it on the ONLY one I have. But I'm fighting with someone on e-bay for a set to practice on but it's probally going...

LOL Anal Huh? I guess I am... Not really you should see my 68 chevy pickup as a daily driver...LOL Actually, I guess that it's just years of working with Dad and his show cars, perfection was always a must. In addition I've bought and sold well over a dozen Monte Carlo's over the years and...

It's the little things The car is exceptional, however there are little things that I just can't understand why the PO didn't address that would make it even better. Here is the Drivers sider tail light, besides the emblem the lens is crazed and scratched, the passengers side is perfect it...

Suggestion Although you probally did in fact find the problem. Before you put the new fan on it and head out on the next road trip. Make sure that you didn't bust a motor mount causing the engine to roll in the motor compartment and cause the fan to contact the shroud and that is the cause of...

RE: YES I am and IDIOT! NEVER AND I MEAN NEVER answer a post within moments of waking up! You are Correct in assuming that the engine would turn over. Guess it would be a real bugger at stop lights if as the engine turned and the transmission wanted to keep the rear wheels turning. What I was...

re: No problem, I'm kinda the new guy here and I hate to see a post go with no answers. I never realized it was that old. Glad that you got it worked out though... Have a great Holiday!!!!

window r/r I have heard that the windows for a vinyl top and non vinyl are different. I'm not completely sure but recal reading it once. Just thought i'd thow it in here. A piece of piano wire will help you, push it through the seal and you can use it to cut your seal and lift the window out...

Some interesting ideas here.... I only saw it here once, as much as we would all hope that our prized vehicles would remain with us until we elect to sell them to another worthy owner. Insure the car properly, most if not all of these cars are classics. Hagerty insurance is probally one of...

re: Mike, I have not used the Meguires product, there are however several methods to remove swirl marks. What ever you use remember that you don't need alot of product to do the job. All you need is enough to cloud the paint. Make sure that you start your repair with a clean/new pad if...

Harmonic balancer bolt Dr, I'm going to assume a couple of things, First if it's an automatic and you still have the Flexplate connected to the trans and the trans is still in the car. If it's in park it shouldn't roll over when you try and remove the Harmonic balalncer bolt. Same with a...

Thanks, but those won't work on the Euro lights. I've searched around and believe that I have found a set here in the States. If Not I have definately foud a set in Hawaii..lol
