Greetings all !

I have been a ZR-1 owner for almost 13 years now, having acquired 1991 #1754 from its 3rd owner. I have been reading the forums occasionally, and decided it was time to sign up and contribute.

My red/red beast has been having overheating issues for nearly 3 years (which is now solved, but that will be a story for another thread!), and is back on the road again and giving its owner those old thrill rides again.

I look forward to learning more and sharing some of my own discoveries.

Barry

Welcome and Congrats on getting your overheating corrected.

Care to elaborate on what root cause was determined?

The root cause of the overheating was a clogged radiator. Rather than sit with it on my lap for hours, I picked up a new one for $200.

It's been there and to Breckenridge several times for Vettes on the Rockies. It still runs like a scared rabbit at 12,000 ft.

Welcome! I too had some minor overheating issues on my ZR1 but that was solved with the Mark Haibeck piggyback chip!
