Dear Listers,
As I write this its still November 30th so technically the List Fund Raiser
is still underway! :-) I've gotten so many nice comments from Listers in
the last couple of days along with their Contributions that I just had to
share them with the Lists. Guys, I really appreciate the kind words and
great support that has come in the last few days.
If you've been meaning to support your Lists this month but have just been
putting it off until the last absolute minute, now's a perfect time to make
that Contribution!
http://www.matronics.com/contribution
A special thank you to everyone that has already shown their support. I'm
compiling the List of Contributors and will post it in a couple days. In
the meantime, please read over some of the nice things people have been
saying about the List along with their Contribution...
Thank you!!!

I have an 89 coupe, I'm the original owner and we're growing old together as
gracefully as we can.
This list is quiet but seems like there's a lot of folks lurking so here's a
couple of question for you all
Recently the engine has started to hunt up and down 100 rpm or so when hot
and idling. Doesn't seem to happen much when the engine is warming up. Any
thoughts?
For the past few months there has been a clicking noise coming from the
passenger side rear radio speaker (Bose system). The click is there whether
the engine is running or not, and doesn't vary in volume when I adjust the
volume control. It clicks a couple of times a second or so.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Tony

version...Several of us mentioned to him that he was "throwing" it by going
to max RPM in every gear...That must have been the problem, for we didn't
hear much of anything from him after that, or from anyone...I posted some
C-5 birthday bash info that was taking place at the Museum and Factory in
Bowling Green, Ky., but didn't archive...Sooo, it has been a very quiet and
unused list...If you belong to a club or etc., maybe you can stir-up some

OK, am I the only one who thinks this is weird? I understand that people with
enough
discretionary income and a sense of adventure will gravitate toward airplanes and
fast cars,
but ...
Anyway, it's a good thing.
Sold my Grumman AA1-A after starting my RV-8. I believe it was the only Yankee
with a Mach
meter in it.
Nice to meet you all.

Gary,
I love Grummans! My first plane and the plane I got my SEL add on was an
AA1. I shopped many months for it and I think it was the and probably still
is the best AA1 flying. It had the O320, aux tanks and all the "clean-up"
kits. Two nav coms, one GS, gps, 2 VOR heads, DME, loran, fuel flow, and
thinks I can't remember. Great plane. But as I remember with two big boys it
was at gross with no fuel! I was coming up on an overhaul and the oil pump
AD so it was time to upgrade. I looked at the Cheetahs and Tigers, but
during the time I had the AA1 the new Tigers were being made. So the prices
were going up FAST! Heck a nice used Tiger was around $70K if I recall
correctly. I decided to get a hi-perf complex for that kind of money and
bought a great Bonanza. I still fly to the AYA fly-ins. I just tell'em I
have the "V tail" STC on my Grumman!
Probably not that strange that we all have airplanes. I suspect that most of
us were looking at or on one of the aircraft related lists, have a Vette,
and figured what the heck, I'll sign up for the Vette list!

Craig,
If you need anything for the '70 I might just have an extra or know where we
can get one.

--> Corvette-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com>
Dear Lister,
Please read over the Corvette-List Usage Guidelines below. The complete
Corvette-List FAQ including these Usage Guidelines can be found at the
following URL:
http://www.matronics.com/FAQs/Corvette-List.FAQ.html
Thank you,
Matt Dralle
Matronics Email List Administrator
******************************************************************************
Corvette-List Usage Guidelines
******************************************************************************
The following details the official Usage Guidelines for the Corvette-List.
You are encouraged to read it carefully, and to abide by the rules therein.
Failure to use the Corvette-List in the manner described below may result
in the removal of the subscribers from the List.
Corvette-List Policy Statement
The purpose of the Corvette-List is to provide a forum of discussion for
things related to this particular discussion group. The List's goals
are to serve as an information resource to its members; to deliver
high-quality content; to provide moral support; to foster camaraderie
among its members; and to support safe operation. Reaching these goals
requires the participation and cooperation of each and every member of
the List. To this end, the following guidelines have been established:
- Please keep all posts related to the List at some level. Do not submit
posts concerning computer viruses, urban legends, random humor, long
lost buddies' phone numbers, etc. etc.
- THINK carefully before you write. Ask yourself if your post will be
relevant to everyone. If you have to wonder about that, DON'T send it.
- Remember that your post will be included for posterity in an archive
that is growing in size at an extraordinary rate. Try to be concise and
terse in your posts. Avoid overly wordy and lengthy posts and
responses.
- Keep your signature brief. Please include your name, email address,
aircraft type/tail number, and geographic location. A short line
about where you are in the building process is also nice. Avoid
bulky signatures with character graphics; they consume unnecessary
space in the archive.
- DON'T post requests to the List for information when that info is
easily obtainable from other widely available sources. Consult the
web page or FAQ first.
- If you want to respond to a post, DO keep the "Subject:" line of
your response the same as that of the original post. This makes it
easy to find threads in the archive.
- When responding, NEVER quote the *entire* original post in your
response. DO use lines from the original post to help "tune in" the
reader to the topic at hand, but be selective. The impact that
quoting the entire original post has on the size of the archive
can not be overstated!
- When the poster asks you to respond to him/her personally, DO NOT
then go ahead and reply to the List. Be aware that clicking the
"reply" button on your mail package does not necessarily send your
response to the original poster. You might have to actively address
your response with the original poster's email address.
- DO NOT use the List to respond to a post unless you have something
to add that is relevant and has a broad appeal. "Way to go!", "I
agree", and "Congratulations" are all responses that are better sent
to the original poster directly, rather than to the List at large.
- When responding to others' posts, avoid the feeling that you need to
comment on every last point in their posts, unless you can truly
contribute something valuable.
- Feel free to disagree with other viewpoints, BUT keep your tone
polite and respectful. Don't make snide comments, personally attack
other listers, or take the moral high ground on an obviously
controversial issue. This will only cause a pointless debate that
will hurt feelings, waste bandwidth and resolve nothing.
