Yes, battery tenders do work! But DO NOT TRUST the cheap Harbor Freight ones or equivalents. Spend a little more & get a quality unit. We had the unfortunate experience of 3 batteries burning off from overcharge with the cheapos. One battery was salvageable, the other 2 needed replacement...

Howdy all, A while back I bought an RJC Power Plate from another forum member & got a good deal. To date I haven't installed it but likely will. But I'm curious, with all due respect to the vendor, do these REALLY work as advertised? Currently the car is 95% stock. The only mods have been my...

Alky control kit Hi, is this kit still available? SoCal local.. interested.. let me know. Pic available?

No promises, but definitely a possibility. It'd be good to make it out.

Hey guys, thanks! 26 going on 60! Heh, just kidding. My girlfriend does adore my silver hairs, though.

Radio looks great, but be sure you check the tape deck belt. Probably good to replace it. Mine broke! I upgraded my radio to a GEB model from the Treb/Bass slider model just under it that came in my car. After a couple years, the belt broke with normal use. Being an extremely cheap bastard, I...

Power plate Looks like an accufab plenum RJC plate guys, won't work on my car. I let John know I'd pass. Have at it!

Cheap Gas Sometimes cheap gas is the only choice you've got when your employment situation isn't so good. Chevron or 76 whenever the wallet allows here... Some lows I wont go to, but as long as its premium, I might cast a shadow on an ARCO station & not be ashamed to be caught. ;)

Dibs on power plate! PM Sent.

For Oil, we've used Mobil 1 15W-50 in my father's 87 GN since new. I changed over from Valvoline 10W30 (prev owner) in mine to Mobil 1 15W-50. Maybe not the best idea to change oils, but my engine is happy. Mobil 1 synthetics are good enough for me! The 15W-50 variety is specifically for older...

Hands down, a California Car Cover is your best bet IMHO. My dad bought some other cover for our GN & it fits terribly. The Cali Car Cover however, fits my WE4 like a glove. Came with mine from the 1st owner.. guy had good taste.

Excellent. Just what I was looking for. Thanks!

We need to raise hell on a number of issues in CA - the emissions exemption being but one. Throw the bums out!

What is the part # for a stock type TTA FP regulator? Is it still available from GM?
