Ok guys, I'm sorry about the long wait. There is kindof an interesting story with this one. I did purchase a 1991 Corvette ZR-1 with 57k original miles. When the car arrived the parking brake was broken and it has a hesitation issue with the throttle. I found out that getting one of these with low miles is NOT necessarily a good thing. According to the service records, this car has been sitting since 2015 and the issues it has are a direct result. I took the car to Corvette of Tampa and they fixed the parking brake. They gave me an engine additive to add to the fuel and they said that its a must that I put miles on this car. Im in the process of doing that and the engine does run better, but it still has some hesitation. The shop doesn't think anything is wrong with the injectors so after running about another tank of fuel and additive through we'll see. Anyways, it looks EXCELLENT inside and out and here's some pics!

If the injectors are the originals, you're almost certainly going to have to replace them.

I had a stumble/hesitation in my 1990 also. Did the injectors, 02 sensors, oil lines, oil sensors etc. In the end, the biggest culprit ended up being the fuel pumps. Very easy change, you can do it in less than an hour without much effort. Relatively cheap part too. made a WORLD of difference getting those old dissolving rubber lines out of there.

Great looking car!
