MAF Is The Culprit
 
For a couple of weeks now, my SES light was coming on sporadically ( or whenever it felt like it).
A friend and I checked out everything under the hood to see if we could find the culprit, but no luck. Then I read a thread concerning the SES light a couple of days ago, or so, and Mech259 advised the member to tap the MAF while the car was idling to see if it would stumble. We did that, but no change. So I took the MAF right off, looked it over, and found that the bottom lip of the "accordion" was not on the intake properly. We re-installed it properly, and no more SES light. Thanks, Mech259. :D

I'm a new owner of a stock '94 (in beautiful condition). I have noticed that it seems to run hot if I'm in traffic for long. It is summertime and this is Florida. After it gets hot, it tends to surge. Is this normal? The owners manual says that driving in traffic will make the O2 sensors get clogged and directs me to hold the RPMs at 2k for 5 minutes to clean them. That seems a little weard to me but who am I to question the engineers? Is this just a problem I will have to live with? Do corvettes have an airflow deficiency? Are the two issues even related? Will a cooling system power-flush help? Is this a sign that the pump is going bad? Thanks in advance to all that are willing for your advise.

How hot does it get before you get your running problems?
