I have a problem with my 1969 Z11 BB head lights going off when I press the button on the floor. I have tried replacing the button to no avail. I checked all connections from button to the back of the head lights, the only thing I can't check is the high beam indecator in the dash. How would you get to it.

After driving my 1969 Z11 BB I get a strong fuel smell in my garage with no visible fuel leak. Is that a sign of just evaporation or is the float or needle valve malfunctioning?

Maintenance / Replacement of Horn Contact - 69 Camaro part C-2819-10 NPD

« on: March 10, 2020, 11:31:36 AM »

Instructions say to cut off contactor at 3/4" does that include the cap or spring end or just the 1" end.
Looks like                 Spring I--------       1"      would make a 1/16" difference.
Hope this makes sense.

Can anyone tell me if the area by the wiper motor arms under the Cowl was left painted white or was painted Huger Orange to match the stripe. I have seen it both ways. Mine is painted orange but looks like it was done with a brush.

Maintenance / Intermittent Horn Blowing - 1968 Camaro RS / SS / BB

« on: April 16, 2018, 10:59:57 AM »

What would cause intermittent horn blowing? Every so often my horn goes off for no reason.
I have looked at the parts on the steering column and nothing looks broken. Scares the SHXX out of me.
