had an issue with my car where on fast stops it would sometimes have trouble maintaining an idle. Would drop down to 500 and struggle to keep running but it would never stall. Couldn't be helped with tuning either. A few days ago read a post on Tech by someone who was having similar issues. He had an issue with water in a taillight housing and replaced his taillight and no longer had a problem with his idle. Got me to thinking...... Went to auto parts and bought a pair of brake light bulbs. Put them in yesterday ( also allowed me to remove my dead weight spare and jack). Well, it has fixed my problem. Noticed that the old bulbs were different manufacturer (I might have replaced one way back when). Checked the resistance and one was 1.5 ohms and the other was 4.5 ohms. Hard to believe that little difference in a BRAKE LIGHT bulb can affect how a car runs. Still can't believe this.
- Welcome to the Michigan FBody Association website.
The Michigan FBody Association is a centralized website for FBody enthusiasts to discuss what's going on in the Michigan area. MiFbody.com was created to allow for an easy one-stop place to find out what's going on in Michigan as far as FBody events, to find out what clubs are available in your immediate area, and for an easy place to post classifieds for items you want to sell! Our goal was to create a more close-knit community of FBody enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, and to bring Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts alike together for some amazing FBody events!
We are the host of the premiere all-FBody event in the Great Lakes area - the Annual Michigan FBody Meet & Greet Car Show.
The most important thing to know about the Michigan FBody Association is that we are NOT a club! The Michigan FBody Association is open to everyone, and is a community. Thus, we will have get togethers, casual cruises, events, and such like that, but this is not an exclusive club and it's 100% free to join this site! So what are you waiting for? Register now!
