Thanks Don http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show...2&forum_id=103
There are very few people in this world you can count on and Don is one of them. See my tale of woe on the link above. Long story short, a simple request that Mirak chevy in Arligton, Ma replace 2 wheel bolts that were stripped. Well they had to get greedy and screw with the Column lock recall, even though I told them not to. Yep, they reflashed the computer and all hell broke loose. Idiots!! Now there are two things that make me nervous about the vette. One is getting hit and the other is the electronics and the PCM. Don diagnosed the problem right away, it was a fried computer. Put back the old tune and thank God it worked. Thanks too, for Keith at Imperial Chevy for quick action to replace the computer. I got lucky this time.

Keith works at a great dealership, Imperial Chevy in Milford MA. 
I am bringing the Vett in next week for a inspection sticker, I will make sure and tell them to not do the recall and mess up Don's handy work.

That sucks Brent but at least it is all squared away now. I also agree that Don is someone you can count on as no matter where I am or what I am doing if I need something and call he is there. Now get back to racing that vette
