anmracing Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 True, true. We can be around next Sunday, the 18th, or the following, the 25th. Either way, I would move the vette out so we can use the limited garage space to stay off the blazing concrete. I also recommend starting early (for a sunday)-say 9?Call it and post the date so we can plan around it. I assume that Chris will be bringing food. Not a subtle hint-not to be ignored, either! ;) M~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest UVETTYA Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 I don't have a pump. You can get one at Wally World for about $10. And my dance card is full until July 16th. Sorry. I've been mega busy lately. I haven't had time to wax the Z06 for 3 weeks now! I'm having withdrawls!Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Togo Posted June 16, 2006 Author Share Posted June 16, 2006 am i the only one that needs this done? i hate to bother when it's just medoesn't anyone else need this done?perhaps we can set it up for the 25th? - it doesn't necessarily even have to be done on a sunday since steve is booked - we could do it on a saturday!i did have a question about bringing the food - does the person that buys necessarily do any work? at the last couple gatherings i was at, that's the way i kinda saw it!

You can pay to have it done, and watch all you want, or you can have friends help you get it done and you buy a small amount of food and drink for the extra help.Nothing in this world is free :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can pay to have it done, and watch all you want, or you can have friends help you get it done and you buy a small amount of food and drink for the extra help.Nothing in this world is free :D I gave two possible dates and no one said anything, so I figured it was a no-go. We're fine with the 25th and yes, it does need to be a Sunday on account of Andrew works Sats. As for food-IMHO, if someone is using my tools and garage and assistance, well .... If anyone else needs to use Bryan's ramps, please let me know prior to mid-July. I plan to have the imaginary car on them for a while and they won't be available.Thanks guys-M~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Togo Posted June 17, 2006 Author Share Posted June 17, 2006 ok, so the 25th it is!i'll get my own pump by then probably this weekendi guess i'll pick up my fluids while i'm out this weekend also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie44 Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 I will probably do my diff but I think I may get the transmission done. We can't drain the entire transmission w/o a evacuation pump as I understand. I have about 10 gal jugs that I'll bring for fluids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pump works for the MN6 but I have the A4 and there's fluid left internally in the transmission after you drop the pan. That's my understanding anyway. I'm open if someone else has done it and knows better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anmracing2 Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Man, I haven't had a chance to check out the forum in sometime... Looks like we will be hostin' a Corvette Sunday... Sound like fun, lets have a roll call to see who will make it. I can't believe all the newbies out there. Welcome aboard to everyone. If anyone needs direction to Melissa's garage, give me a call, 602/762.0348. I hope a lot of you can make it. Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r40734 Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Automatics will always have some fluid left inside after dropping the pan... also, the torque converter will still be full, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest UVETTYA Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Eddie, you might want to take yours to AZP&S. Mike says he can do a power flush and fill on my Grand Prix for under $100, and that includes the torque converter. I just haven't had time to do it.Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anmracing2 Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Well My garage is a total disaster so we will put the ramp in Melissa's garage. It faces west so it might get a little warm in there in the afternoon so I would recommend around 9:00 in the morning. Who else is gonna' stop by. We need more people to stand around and point. Michael and Eddie can't be the only one's laughing at the work crew..... Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
