my $.01 If you go refurb, get a good name brand. Do you really need 1080p? Do you have/will you get the devices/tv service/movies that are native to this format? Consider this - if you are buying a refurb, how long do you expect it to last? If the answer is 5 years or less, then maybe skip the 1080p as it will be much cheaper in 5yrs. If the answer is 10 years, then maybe you should consider new?

Don't make us kick your ass, like last time! Ban Nunya for not trusting Canadians! (Who can you trust then?)

This wouldn't explain the fuel smell, but winter formulation fuel may reduce your fuel economy.

Ban andreus009 for picking on Canadians!

Ban GG for not getting what the word faith means.

Well just put a resistor on the O2 sensor too!! And this explains some bad feedback for the seller I think.

What is wrong with the CNTC board? Ban Pezzy for not making Simon fix the CNTC board.

Andreus009 - banned! Banned for punching cats!!!

I think you have some good advice so far. I through out an oddball, that you may want to check when getting the balancing done just to be sure - a bent rim can be hard to notice depending on how it is bent. If the tire tech put it on the balance machine and closed the hood, he would never have seen this. I have a similar vibration on my old Chevelle I have traced to a bent rim. Long shot, but somethign to keep in the back of your mind. You may find swapping fronts to rear will help troubleshoot to see if the vibration moves to the rear or not.

Not quite deep enough for a periscope. Great pic.

yeah, sounds like the sending unit wire is grounding out somewhere.... ?

Ban Nytrosfinder for future plans to smoke his tail lights. Man, smoke a cigarette... maybe some weed instead.

^ What he said. I suggest having the fans come on just slightly above the temp of the tstat. That way they won't run all the time, just when needed (like in town). JMO

That is exactly what it relates to ('69 Chevelle SS396 4 speed to be exact). I have used this alias on-line since 1995, saw no need to change it now. As to the drugs, well, I was a kid in the 70s, but there is always seconds chances! Ban SC88 for the Hulk playing a guitar in his sig

I have those on my 69 velle. I love the sound of them at WOT, but I think they are a bit too quiet at idle - likely a sign I need more power.

My first car was a 71 Malibu, 350/350. Awesome/fun car. Like Wagons? A guy in a Chevelle club I am in has a clean, straight, rust free, 72 wagon for sale. No engine/trans but body is excellent and has A/C & Power disks, orig paint - asking $2k only! I'd buy it if it wasn't so far away from me (he is in Culver city CA) My 69 is my dream car in some senses. It is the car I want, big block, 4 speed, coupe. I just wish it was in nicer condition. I wanted for the longest time to do a tremec TKO600 5 speed swap. I agonized over which gear set / OD ratio to go with though. The .64 is simply too steep with anything under 3.73s and works best with at least 4.10s, especially if you have an agressive cam. However with those gears, you end up having an extremely short 1st gear. The .82 has the opposite problem where 1st is great with say 3.42s but the OD isn't as deep as I would like for freeway driving. This has lead me to the newly T-56 6 speeds as you have listed, now these are a sweeeeet set-up... of course, 50% price increase. It sounds like you have researched this a lot.... are you ok with a huge cutout of the stock trans tunnel? (trans is taller/wider).

Ban Nunya for not reading Precise1's sig.

Precise1 for claiming to be innocent!

I am banning myself for being dumb enough to read this whole post.

Assuming all connections at the starter and battery.... Starter relay/solenoid? I am not real familiar with those rigs tho.

Be sure to NOT use the caulking that is bathroom tub & tile or any that has that vinegar smell.

Turn the key off then on at least twice without starting, then start. Do this for a couple of days at least. If no issue starting, then it could be fuel pump/regulator not building quite enough pressure...

I agree. Leaky axle seal. The wheel cylinder would have been easier to deal with I think, sorry.

As the saying goes: "Good judgement comes from Experience. Experience comes from bad judgement." Keep on working away at it, every job we learn something for the next time...

Mine does it too. Spraying it helps, but the spray collects dirt. I use a bit of spray silicone on a rag and wipe it on, seems to help.
