The starter housing on my corvette cracked. Seeing that I really just moved down to Houston, I figure, screw it I’ll have a shop do it. This was mostly due to the fact that you have to drop my long tube headers to get it out, and I don’t have a lift nor know anyone with a lift I could use.

Tell them to put in a lifetime GM starter, and give her an oil change while there are in there.

ok no biggy no surprises they are done in two days.

Drive the car for ~30 miles, and she is running like crap, and throws the CEL.

Should I go back, or not? Figure they fucked it up this much, why let them make it worse?

5 CELS

P0132  
P0174  
P1416  
P1255  
U1064

Oh and of course when I dropped off the car there was no CELS at all! BALLS.

It might be one unseated connector. What are those codes? Maybe they forgot to plug in the O2.

I would def take it back.

Yah I guess I’ll head back, but I _think_ my car runs open loop all the time. I’ll have to double check it all though.

The codes are lean bank/high voltage o2/ air pump/ brake module malfunction/ lost communication with brake module.

per a search on the last code… vette’s throw that one regularly it usually comes up as  
U1064H

meaning its in the history doesn’t normally throw the CEL

soo the other codes make me think your bank 1 O2 sensor is busted or unplugged

Any exhaust leaks at all? If they fucked up removing your header there could be air getting into the exhaust stream screwing with the O2’s.

I talked with Mike over at New Era, and I’m almost 100% sure they messed up the tube going to the air pump. (They forgot to put the clamps on it.)

So I hope to easily fix this myself. We shall see!
