I had the EXACT same issues with a 96 LT1 running a procharger... for a few years. We sent the car to multiple shops and dealerships over a 3 yr period. In those 3 yrs less than 1500 miles went on the car, more miles were put on the truck and trailer transporting it around. Procharger eventually got involved and worked with Fastchip (tuned the ECU) and finally got things to work correctly -> we ditched all the MSD stuff I was running (just like in your vette), went to a factory Optispark, and ran the coldest cheapest autolite plug possible... and the car FINALLY ran correctly. I was ready to scrap the TransAm/LT1. I loved the car and it ran perfectly before putting a blower in it. After the blower install, some days it would run great, other days sounded just like your vette. I went thru so many parts and so much money... I replaced the ECU just like you did and it worked for a day or three, then back to square one. We would take it to dinner and it would run great, then leave dinner an hr later and the car would die one light later, and stranded we were again. So many highs and lows -> I felt Peter's roller coaster of emotions in more ways than you can imagine. Call procharger if all else fails. I think the MSD stuff was the main culprit in my experience. Good luck.

Best thing you can do with an LT1 if you're going to keep it is do a 24x conversion so you can run it on a modern ls 411 PCM and it removes the problematic opti spark for a coil pack setup

I have always changed my “lifetime” transmission fluid every 50,000 in my Audis and have NEVER had a problem even with the good old tip. I think a miracle happened with that corvette. I bet there are not that many people who would have spent the time and effort to sort it out like you and Peter did. Most would have gotten it to run enough to take it to Alaska and fly it off the cliff up there. I loved my old C4, it was a great car and only had one major problem strangely with a cracked exhaust manifold! Great job trying to save this old boy.👍👍

Tip when using the vacuum tube setup like you were on the tank - take a coat hanger or similar wire and tape the hose to it with some electrical tape. Leave about an inch of the hose longer than the end of the wire. Then you can move the hose around tons better holding the stiff wire. 😊

1/4 Keyway stock zip tied to the suction hose. Leave it up from the end of the keyway stock a little more than a 1/16 of an inch. Then you have perfect control. You can substitute a 1/4-20 threaded rod. Just a few inches of ties at the bottom works like a pool vacuum.

If you had a long wire (coat hanger?) you could wrap it around that tubing on your vacuum. It would give you precise control getting the debris out of the tank. Also, that appears to be a tension bracket for a chainlink fence holding the fuel filter. Finally, are you planning on removing the aftermarket ground effect kit?

But what do I know, I only have a 600hp 355 LT1 making the same 7psi they are. Their package is a cam, valve springs and headers away from making another 100hp. The fact they had them off and in their hands makes it even more of a 'no-brainer' decision.

Verry happy with your fuel sending repair. my 85 corvette also has a problem with accuracy. I would never guess the yellow connector was hold from the back with a clip. You saved me a ton of stress. Thank you an keep up the good work!

Tons of German, Japanese, and Korean cars have a pop open cap under back seat, then a couple nuts or screw cap to the pump..not really uncommon to be easy to do. Even most under vehicle are pretty easy to drop tank.

@@Boga217 I wouldn't call you a liar, but there's certainly much fewer steps in popping off a cover and zipping off a few bolts vs getting the car up on the lift or getting it on stands and sliding the creeper underneath to drop the tank and getting crap all over yourself and the floor. That doesn't really compare.

Could we name the c4 “Marlin” or “ruby” keep the original owner’s name alive. Edit : that looks like fencing strap on the fuel filter I just had to fix my fence before winter 😂

@@Boga217 Some cars, like mine, use two fuel level sending units, if one goes bad you have to change both because it cuts the circuit. And replacement units are even worse quality, they don't even work properly brand new. Hard to trust when the fuel level goes crazy.

Loving this video series.....buy the car you wanted but couldn't afford when it was new. Get massive satisfaction cause it was cheap......more satisfaction because you fixed it....more satisfaction because it's now awesome AND it's not like anybody else can have this, this kind of satisfaction has nothing to do with money, it's all about enthusiasm
