    Can you make a video for the c5 on the secondary air pump. I have a check engine light, but I replaced the secondary air pump. I'm assuming the check valve is causing the current check engine light.

      Pull the code (s) with the C5's diagnostics in the dash. Here's how. th-cam.com/video/bwbnzEAkpYc/w-d-xo.html

    Hi I have an 81 corvette C3 with an LS1 swap from a corvette C5.it has a 4L60E transmission. I used to be able to launch and the wheels would spin no problem and take off fast. Recently it has been hesitating on acceleration with no more Launch at all like as if I’m taking off on a higher gear and slowly gain speed. no more launch at all. Any ideas on what you think it could be ? I would greatly appreciate your help thank you.

    You don’t need the scan tool to pull codes on C5/C6 you can pull codes on the dash display.

    I've changed my plugs and wires and THEN discovered a misfire ... Just because it is new does not mean it is good. I put old wires on 1 at a time no difference. 1 plug at a time 2 "new" did not fire properly. Creating the misfire. Dad said if it aint broke don't fix it when he heard me complaining about 3 pm after the 6 hours of wtf in the shop
