    Looong time to start

    01LSV8 HAs been getting worse lately. Rarely starts on the first attempt. Have to hold ignition for a long time or try 2-3 times for it to start up. Once it starts, it's good. I know I have a valve cover leak going into at least one of the coils. Plan on fixing that in the next couple of...

    Replacing valve cover gaskets

    LS trifecta

    1. How many years have you owned your LS 2. Is it your ride? or just your car? If your ride, means you still take care of it like new. Still put money into it. Still feel proud to own it and don't think about replacing it. If it's just your car, then it's just a car. It could easily get...

    Hydrolic fan not working. Something I did?

    I tried (with a mechanic friend) to replace the power steering pump, which we were unable to do because no one seems to have the right pump... but that's a thread for another day. Anyway, after putting everything back together, my car is now over heating. I pretty much figured out that the...

    Well, the day finally came. It took a lot of hard work and long hours... but i did it: 200,000 miles!!!!! I'd like to thank my wife, who was by my side most of the way. My dogs, who although they have spent a lot of time in the backseat, you would never know it by looking at it. To Arturo...

    Transmisison problems

    A few days ago i realized that my transmission was leaking fluid. For a while i would notice a strange smell when i would get off of my car. Kind of like a burnt smell. Finally figured out she's leaking. Every once in a while, when taking off in first gear, the car wont move. It will...

    Weird electrical problem

    This has happened a few times now. When I hit a pot hole or a speed bump, all electrical lights turn off inside the car. And the MPH & RPM gauges roll back and forth once or twice (not sure if the fuel and temp gauge did the same thing) . Doesn't do it at every bump. But it's done it 2 or 3...

    LS acting up after tune up

    OK, about a month ago I took the LS in for a tune up before a road trip.(one of those speedy tune up places) Almost right away I noticed some jerking (best way i can describe it) in the engine while driving. Went on trip and for the most part it was ok, but i felt and still feel like it's lost...

    LS turns off when shifting

    This has happened to me a few times. Every time has happened when making a 3 point turn... as i shift gears into reverse the car turns off. It starts right back up with no problems... but I'm getting worried that it's a sign of something going wrong. My only theory is that I'm shifting too...
