Talking Respect your elders!
Greetings from olddude! Over 30 years in big block Mopar B-bodies has taught me a valuable lesson - I love modern technology!!! There's a lot to be said for no longer sticking to a vinyl seat while muscling a manual steering / manual brakes / 4 speed 4000 pound car around town. Only other modern GM was my '96 C4 LT-1 that is not as good a car as this one. On to tech for some advice - got a hesitation to figure out. See y'all...
