Lot of C4 Corvette Power Antenna & Related Repair Maintenance Topics
Magazine Q&A Internet Info
(Check my other listing for amplifier with repair parts and repair information.)
During my 19 year ownership of a 1988 C4 Coupe, I collected a ton of
maintenance and repair articles for my use and for my Corvette Club. Now that I upgraded, rather than discarding
this info, I’m selling the papers for others to use.
This lot is 32 pages related to the power antenna and poor radio
reception. There are 2 wiring diagrams
from the ’88 GM Service Manual, 5 Corvette magazine Questions & Answers, 3
other articles from Corvette magazines, and 7 items I copied from the internet
or received elsewhere.
If your C4 Corvette is different from my ’88, some
of these may not apply.

Plane Information – NOTE – this was by far the best thing I did to my ’88
to improve reception. I got a copy from Corvette genius Gordon
Killebrew during Corvettes at Carlisle.
This simple addition of a ground plane greatly improved my radio
reception.
Also included is a very informative 22 page C4 Restoration and Maintenance
Workshop handout by Chris Petris. Covers
a wide range of topics, like general maintenance, cooling, charging, and
ignition systems, lots on fuel injection and throttle body service,
transmission, differential, brakes, driveline, suspension, ECM troubleshooting,
many engine related testing.
