HERE'S EVERYTHING MY 4TH GEN CAMARO Z28 NEEDS

[@mfaris4467]

Watching this made me feel so much better about all the things my car needs

[@cptamerica311]

I bought a ‘94 Z28 around a year ago and I gotta say I’ve enjoyed your 4th gen Camaro vids. It’s been a great resource for info on what I’ve been doing to mine. I’m currently doing the rear suspension stuff. Can’t wait to see see how your new one pans out!

[@Ominous-Shadows]

Same I love my 93 I've been following him for awhile for tips and things lol

[@illestcamaro]

i found your videos way back about a year or two ago with your 4th gen content. thankfully i’ve come across you again and i’m definitely subbbing to see more content

[@hasbeengood]

How about just a lube job on the window regulators to revive the window action? How about a "bead" of urethane to fix the cracked dash? There are kits that even allow you to replicate the texture of the plastic with little stamp like things...Suggestions. IMO looks better than a carpet dash! LOL

[@ReynoldsRides]

Good suggestions, thanks.

[@hasbeengood]

@@ReynoldsRides Cool. Hang in there.

Good looking car! I love seeing the simple 4th gen content on KZbin.

[@miker4617]

Cant wait to see more 4th gen content. As a 94 Z28 owner.

[@michaelericks]

I have a 95 z28

[@buldog190]

in 2010, i was lucky enough to buy a white 94 z28 with 50k miles. it needed the opti-spark replaced. After the repairs were done, it was an extremely fun and affordable muscle car.

[@gambreltoyota9588]

Love the content!! I own a 97 Z28! I understand all your issues!!

[@irocitZ]

I bought a used black 94 Z28 with 14k miles when it was just a year old, that car was like brand new. Garage kept, I never used it as an everyday car. When I eventually sold it a few years later it still had less than 30k miles on it and was in the same condition as when I bought it, I remember opening the garage to show it to the girl who came by herself and eventually became the next owner didn't even wanna test drive it before she bought it. She lucked out because of how nice that car was, I don't recommend anyone doing that but I'm a 100% sure that car had no issues whatsoever.

Making me want a early 90s camaro 😂

[@danielbennett5283]

I really enjoy watching your content. I like your point of view and detailed look at the finer points.

[@ReynoldsRides]

Thanks, Daniel!

When I was in High School in the late 90's my first car was an '84 Camaro, it was pretty cool but I wanted a 4th Gen with the LT1 SOOO BAD. I remember some college kids in the area had Newer Camaro's and I was so jealous! This was circa 1998-2000 so those cars were super fast for the time, I used to watch them race on the weekends and always loved the sounds of the LT1's and LS1's.

[@ReynoldsRides]

That’s awesome, thanks for sharing.

[@Myrdoc]

@@ReynoldsRides you look like you’re in Utah, I grew up there too. Not many Camaros around when I was driving mine. So whenever I did see one I always tried to meet them haha.

[@NewEdgeDesigns]

Definitely looks good underneath…the fender jacking is a pet peeve and I actually have to do that on one side of my New Edge..I can say that my car may be the first car I ever bought that had almost nothing wrong with it at all and actually many new parts and upgrades that I didn’t notice and the dealer didn’t know or mention..I paid 8k when the market was low 2years ago so I paid all the money for it, but I definitely got what I paid for and then some looking back…

[@camaroguy4390]

Have you tried to put the 98-02 Camaro wiper blades on and replace the old style ones?

[@brianpeterson7139]

Great video my friend just picked up a 2000 trans am and we have to get it road worthy.

[@jesse7579]

Good luck with this project. Definitely enjoy the simplicity of most of your videos. You must have a Saint of a wife to allow you to spend the time on these projects! Can't wait to see more 🙂

[@channelz3363]

It’s great knowing you’ll fix it all up.

[@camaro69green31]

Great Video and well thought out. Honest!! Cheers! I love my 94 z28. Slowly becoming my favorite gen.

[@oldschooldude8370]

For the ball joints, set the front end down on the control arms using stands and use a large pry bar with another set of eyes while lifting the wheel while pushing in up top. You'll quickly see any play.

[@azulsurlado]

2:02 😂😂😂😂 I feel to take a shower 🧼…nice camaro tho

[@YogurtSnipe]

My ‘94 Z28 is my first car. Definitely a project car with repairs in the floor pan, doors that were partially sawed off to get to the gears, the most annoying stuff though is trying to fix the engine codes. I am at a loss of how to fix my engine light not even flashing. Just also got a check gauges indicator too. Already messed with the fuses no issues there, no issues in wiring to my ECM since it does go into diagnostic mode. I have a Haynes manual but it’s not easy to read through.

[@SpencerAnnis]

Just bought one of these! (94 Z28 w/100k miles). Any tips for what could be causing a pretty overwhelming gas/exhaust smell in the car? Engine seems to run smoothly, at idle RPMs dip a bit randomly, but I’m thinking it’s probably not a fuel leak. Didn’t know if anyone here knows of a typical issue with these that could be causing it. Any help is appreciated, Thanks!

[@DocZoidberg549]

My Son just bought a 94 Z28 t-top black on black with 87K miles. Lucky find. It's been sitting in a warehouse for 2 years. We have to do some maintenance before we start it up. Going to drop the tank and get all the old gas out and blow out the fuel line and probably replace the fuel pump. It's a light project car.

[@Jpilgrim30]

Your dash looks mint compared to mine 😂. I have a brand new one in the box though just waiting on some new window tint before I put it in.

[@vincentfisher4748]

Undercarriage is in pretty good shape.

[@beeterracing7024]

The problem where it runs after you shut it off is called dieseling. It has something to do with the fuel still feeding even after spark is off. Im sure there is a guide somewhere which diagnoses it. I took that from my Chilton manual

[@NickAbrego]

pulling my z28 out of storage once it stops raining in WI!

[@ReynoldsRides]

What year?

[@martygrajeda3457]

Nice!

[@mmahtnart8986]

Alternator bearings are bad. Not the belt.

[@michaelm3381]

Not bad for the mileage! Try Hawk's third gen for parts. eBay also has a lot of new and used parts. Keep up with the Camaro videos.

[@TastyGoomba]

seems solid, just a little tlc here ans there. optispark & water pump prob in your future if that leak is what i think it is. look forward to future vids!

[@jameslewis197]

You did good...a use car is as- is 1st its tlc boss i understand i got a 95 5.7 head gaskets opti-spark..fuel pump, just piece by piece...30year old car...but my buddy who has a 94 TA he said " Auto Zone " opens at 7...

[@NotAGarage]

The engine idling for a second or two after shutting it off is called dieseling. Is your car running rich? Probably fuel burning off like carbon build up. More than likely you need different set of plugs. Your LT1 probably has a hotter plug than it should. After installing the correct AC Delco plugs I would run that gas tank as low as possible, drain it out through the line so you change the fuel filter, and fill up with 93 octane. The owner's manual for LT1's even says 91 octane or higher. The previous owner probably installed cheap plugs or just never did, and he has probably ran cheap 87 octane fuel in the ole girl. I'd look forward to seeing the updates. Edit: If you're referring to the air sucking/vaccum sound after shut off that is the a.i.r pump. P.S. BEWARE if you're doing the plugs on the LT1 in a 4th gen.... beware... be very aware the passenger side spark plugs..... cylinder #8 and #6 can be reached underneath with clever maneuvering and lots of patients.... but cylinder #4 and #2 are even more frustrating.

[@ReynoldsRides]

Thanks for the info!

[@vertinsation]

My cousin has one, they are flawless

[@NJRangerGeorge]

Car is not a rust bucket that is a plus.

[@rushnerd]

Not bad for $3K, but that's of course just the start. I'm new to "vintage" sports cars, just picked up an 88' Supra NA auto last year for $8K, It's in pretty fantastic shape, but obviously the price is high for a non-turbo. Bill was $4,100 from the shop to convert AC/change belt/Master Cylinder/and fluids. The quality of electronics and interior is obviously a stark contrast between a bare-bones GM product and Toyota's nicest car, but even then the MK3 Supra has a ton of weird ass electrical issues. I actually considered the exact Z28 you have now in black before the Supra. My dad said his was a ticket getter and it felt hilarious to drive in the speed limit because it's barely trying.

You say you don't know what the maintenance history of that car is. LOL. Based on what you show in this video it's obvious there is no maintenance history short of oil changes and that may even be suspect.

not for nothing, but these cars are so freaking ugly, and that can't be fixed

[@nedflanders5649]

Best thing you can do to that car is crush it lol. I had a 1997 z28 and now looking back it was garbage. My S5 would smoke the z28.

[@ReynoldsRides]

That escalated quickly.

[@JK-li7fp]

I'll run your s5. Doesn't take much to improve lt1s.

[@nedflanders5649]

@@JK-li7fp Whatever you build-up would still not be as nice as a S5 and be such a nice daily driver. I have two kid car seats in the back and still do 3.9 0-60, I get 24mpg in town. Camaros are only good for one thing and that s beating the shit out of. Don't get me wrong I love camaros, my dad has a 67 and 69. One for show and one for tracking.

[@JK-li7fp]

@@nedflanders5649 They are very different cars. I respect Audis, I'd love a built rs3. You are comparing new technology to a car made 30 years ago. Cost is also a factor. I paid 2k for a bolt on, modified suspension f body and was racing that day. My new setup should get low 11's na and deep 10's on spray when finished. All for 10k total.

Hands down. The ugliest generation Camaro! Also the ugliest generation Corvettes! Chevrolet laid out a bunch of turds in the last half of the 90s!!! 💩

I’m genuinely curious, why did you take time out of your life to watch the video and make this comment if you think these cars are the “ugliest generation?”
