Hello...
Been Lurking for a few months now, thought I should finally join up.

Recently Picked up a 1995 Z28 convertible with about 103k on it. Body is rock solid, no rust, top is in decent shape, but not working 100%. It was running like crap when I first picked it up. After looking on here, found out about the quirks of this model year, picked up a ALDL cable and downloaded the scanning software. What a huge help that was!

I have since replaced the plugs, wires, one O2 sensor, the Optispark (evidently a common issue), and while we were in there did the water pump.

Car is running much better now (and actually passed emissions), but I still have a ways to go before I'm where I want to be. Hopefully, this gang can help me out on this quest.

Thanks for all the help I've already received just by browsing this site!
