What exactly is wrong with your car? Or do you know?

More details, please I'm in Wichita, and I'm pretty familiar with LT1s

I've got a newborn at home, so my time is kinda limited, depending on what you're needing done.....

not quite sure what's wrong with it, i will get a detailed list of things that have been checked, and replaced tomorrow...more than anything i'm just trying to find someone who enjoys working on engines and could use a little extra cash for their spare time

colin nice looking z, the berger panel and the old z emblem is a very nice touch

Colin is a good guy and very helpful. I would offer my services but I don't really work on cars anymore including my own. I'm always available to stand around and say I wouldn't do that if I was you and laugh when things break.

That sounds usefull

Thanks

I wouldn't mind taking a look at it for you, but having a newborn at home limits my spare time, so as long as you're not in a big hurry I'll be happy to help.....

colin is perfect for the job, as long as u catch him during his spare hours.

Colin,

I feel very confident with you taken care of the car, everyone here is speaking good words about you, and that just reassures me. anyways, the car cranks, the fuel pump comes on but it will not fire up, the spark plugs/wires, the opti spark, and the coil have all been changed. If you think you know what it is from what ive explained, and you think it's a simple fix just let me know. otherwise feel free to come take a look at it diagnose it, and just let me know how much you would want to fix it, for parts and labor...I am in no hurry, the car has been sitting in the exact same spot for about 2 years

i'll send you a p.m. as well

Colin91Z

How old is the gas in the tank? And have you checked the fuel pressure?
