    Yes, the wire was running from this sensor located on driver side to this wire on the passenger side. Furthermore, I went out , hooked up the battery, installed new fan relay and tested the circuit. Firstly fan relay fuse was blown. Secondly when I ground that green wire, fan comes on. Which...

    The wire from the fan switch on driver side was running along the firewall down to that green wire down below on passenger side. Wasn't even crimped, just twisted and taped.

    My overheat concern comes from missing fan relay (green connector), and brand new relay found in console compartment along with some other parts. BTW I'm Serge.

    I'm not trying to determine it it is Z51, not that I really care:) This car will be my daily driver for the summer. There is no auxiliary fan installed. I almost finished wiring cleanup and getting ready to hook up the battery and start testing. But it got cold here, -14C, even with my...

    I ran a VIN decoder and Carfax. Nothing suspicious in Carfax, no accidents reported. I'm 7th owner! In the Build Sheet everything looks OK, except for exterior paint. I can't understand exterior paint code. It doesn't look like it's been repainted, there are a few chips here and there and there...

    Thanks a lot again! You know exactly what I'm looking for! I was searching for the glue to fix cracked plastic. Looks like SEM and DAP Weldwood are available on Amazon. There are actually 5 Weldwoods - 25332 (green can) , 25312(blue), 00271 (red ), 00272(red) and 00442 (teal). Do you remember...

    Excellent write ups! Thank you for sharing. My plan is to save as much as possible of existing interior, get it ready for this summer. And then will see what to do next. I'll try to clean the carpet and seats. I hope I can get rid of some of that mice smell :). Also, funny enough, I was thinking...

    Thank you, looks good! Thank you for advise! I was looking at 3M 90 myself the other days. I'm going to order some from Amazon. Where did you get your carpets from? I ordered mine from Corvette Central. And after that I found they are available at RockAuto too.

    Pulled door panels, ordered new carpets for them. Mice damage. Rear view mirror needed some attention too.

    It is a momentary switch. But now I remember that GM cars from that era had another NO contact parallel to fuel pump relay - oil pressure switch. It was done for redundancy, if FP relay fails, than you can still drive the car as long as you have oil pressure. Perhaps that button was like "third...

    My '85 C4 restoration

    I would think so, but it is normally open pushbutton, and it jumps normally open relay contacts, looks like it is there to activate fuel pump, bypassing the relay for whatever reason. And most confusing - why was it hidden inside the panel? I would've never found it if I didn't pull the panel...

    Looks like it is fuel pump relay, but why would he manually override it? And why the button was hidden?

    Cross member behind driver seat is damaged, and brake line routing doesn't look very safe.
