Well, Costco quit listing the correct model number for the Corvette, but they still carry the battery. I believe it was part number 12850, and it has 590 cold cranking amps and 900 peak amps.

I want to try the Costco battery again, because they are cheap and have a killer return policy. I'll just use my battery tender from now on if I don't use it for more than 2 days.

Wish I knew...

Ok, took a look at it. The crank wheel is definitely too "loose", and so I took it to my shop and the rubber on the balancer wheel is actually coming off the wheel itself. So its in the shop getting...

Serpentine Belt making a squeeking noise..

Can't really pinpoint what is making the noise.

But the big wheel down in the middle does look a little off kilter. I'm wondering if it is loose or if that is normal? I wouldn't think they'd...
