I'm moving to the UK! If gas wasn't so expensive over there I'd think about taking the GN but for now I'm leaning towards storing her. tips/advice welcome, what do I need to do to it before putting it in storage? I imagine some gas stabilizer, fresh oil change, wash/wax/cover...

a while back someone had posted a URL that let you search for parts in dealer inventories. Anyone have that webaddress? I cant seem to get the magic keywords in a search and turn it up. :D TIA

Looks like I"ve got a 4in metal line from metal fule line fitting to a rubber hose coming from the fuel filter towards the front of tha car. Then its 30 inches or so of rubber line then back to steel tube again. Now my question, I plan on replacing the rubber line with steel tubing...

I've got a adjustable fuel pressure regulator and as soon as the engine is off the pressure drops to 0. HOw long should it take for the AFPR to bleed down? If the AFPR has a vacuum leak inside would it in turn have a hard time raising the fuel pressure under boost? Could enough vacuum leak...

Just replaced my vacuum block and noticed there was no gasket under it. Can I get this somewhere or even make one? I"m thinking I may have had a lil vac leak there and from what I've read there should be a gasket. Does GM still carry this gasket? Where can I get this bugger? TIA :)

I saw a tech article that trimming the ground electrode on spark plugs to be even with the center electrode on the plug results in a stronger more consistant spark. Has anyone done anything like this? This is a tip for regular V8s and wonder if it would have any benefits on the 3.8Turbo.

I've been loking at Buick Regal GSs and Pontiac Grand Prix GTPs lately and like the interior of the GS and exterior of the GTP. anyways.... My first question is did the GTP in 1999 have a ram air looking hood as a option with two scoupes? Are the two cars (GS and GTP) both as quick or...

My GN was making about 12#s of boost with my ds header crack almost all the way around the #5 tube. After getting this welded I was surprised to see my boost stay at 12#s. :confused: I was thinking that was the problem with my low boost problem, currently I've got the thrasher 92 chip...

Anyone have any experiences with shops in the DC area? I'm looking for a shop to check out my tranny. I don't know squat about slush boxes and CA is too far to drive :D Something doesn't feel right when its WOT. rather have someone take a look before something bad happens. Kinda feels...

Has anyone installed a remote radar detector in their car? For some strange reason I always find myself speeding when I drive my GN, I just dont understand...... :D I'm thinking about a Whistler 3300 remote radar detector, it mounts somewhere in the front of the car and the little control...

I've got a rhythmic vibration that happens a little before WOT shifts. It almost feels like the car is being held back acceleration wise when it does this. Its a really noticable vibration and it happens before each shift at WOT. I have also noticed the shifts are not firm, thus my next...

So I have a blue haired old lady pull out in front of me and I have to slam on the brakes. Afterwards, when I retrace my route the next day I see my skid marks and notice that only the right side left a skid mark. Now I have noticed that the right side rim seems to be dirtier when it's time...

has anyone tried/or use the silicone squegee to dry their car? I must have hard water or something because i get all kinds of water spots even when I use a chamois. I'd try the silicone dealy but I don't want to make my less than pristine black any worse. Any input is appreciated :)

How can I get a stock chip for valet mode? Basically I've got a stock GN and need a chip with a, say, 3000 rpm limiter and about a 70 mph limit. At least thats what was suggested in my other post 'How to keep shop joyriders at bay' =) I suppose my questions are: where do I get another chip...
