  • I should have done this RIGHT after installing headers on the C5 Corvette | DriveHub
    6 months ago, I installed Speed Engineering long tube headers on the C5 Corvette. At that time, I should have deleted the AIR/EGR system on the C5 Corvette, but I didn’t. SO, in today's video, we are giving the C5 Corvette an oil change AND removing the C5 Corvette AIR/EGR system. Here’s how to remove the AIR/EGR system from the C5 Corvette!

    So EGR stands for exhaust gas recirculation. This is a system that increases mpgs and meets emission requirements because inert exhaust will not go boom or ignite. This inert exhaust being fed from your heads to your intake will fill a portion of the volume in your cylinders, effectively “lowering” displacement.
    So that is what the tube to your intake was, it was the main feed of the exhaust gas back into your car.

    I bought a "quickjack". Trust me... its well worth the cost for a DIY'er. Best of all you can store it away and not take up valuable garage space.
    (Use it on my 04Z06 and many other cars / SUV's / trucks)

    Good video Jake. Get a small tubing cutter and cut the hard line as far back as you can to get rid of it.

  • @vantharasc9967
    @vantharasc9967 Před 2 lety +2

    I removed my Airpump just last week.. installing a supercharger and long tube headers so I figured I didn't need it anyways lol. You have to pull the intake to get the other half. It was not fun. but I mean it was easy enough as long as you put forth the time. The worst part is removing the annoying clamps.

  • @matthewboudreaux2693

    FYI Jake, there is a Supertech (Walmart brand) filter that is exactly the same filter made at the same facility that makes the AC Delco, but is half the price. Down here is South Louisiana the Ac is around $10 a piece while the Supertechs are $4 and some change.

    • @bigbenisdaman
      @bigbenisdaman Před 2 lety +1

      AC delco's lil over 4$ at walmart, also about same price on Amazon here in North LA lol

    • @vice4134
      @vice4134 Před rokem

      As a matter of fact, it's not always the same for years or for the whole country. They often change contracts with manufacturers and you won't know if they are using the same quality. So, to be on the safe side, go with AC Delco when you know you're getting a good quality every single time. It's only 6 dollars more. You could save more by getting a bulk online.

    When you were jacking up the back I was waiting for the car to start rolling off the ramps, lol, remember e brake on c5s are on rear wheels

  • @matthewboudreaux2693
    @matthewboudreaux2693 Před 2 lety +4

    Man I feel ya pain on on jacking up the car for oil changes. I even have to go through the same process on my wife’s 2011 BMW 328.
    I also just did the magnetic drain plug. I’m curious to see what all it catches on mine with 72,000 miles. I never baby my C5 either. I drive it like it was designed.

    • @TheSurfRyder

      Get a quick lift system. They’re not cheap but they lift the car up high and at the same time.

    They sell jack blocks that go on your corvette. I have them for my Camaro.When I jack it up so it doesn’t mess up the pinch weld’s.They fasten to the pinch weld’s with Allen key.look into it because it makes it easier

    Curious why your oil pressure is pegged at 80psi? Is the sensor shot or are you running a heavy weight oil?

    Lol intake manifold is easier than putting headers on. I just ordered the Texas speed headers wirh the xpipe. I honestly don’t trust $400 headers so I went with them.

  • @chrisambrose8838
    @chrisambrose8838 Před 2 lety

    Some day you’re going to say,,…. Why did I take all that stuff off….🤷. I only say this because in the late sixties,early seventies, we did the same thing with the A.I.R. systems. 👍🙋‍♂️🖖🏻

    I just give my C5 to my friend who has a lift at his shop to do oil changes, so much easier lol

  • @danabbene6507
    @danabbene6507 Před 2 lety +2

    I assume your check engine light is codes for the EGR system. You have tune them out.
    Removing intake really isn't that bad I don't think. If you do remove it, change your oil sensor and do a relocation kit to make it easier next time.

    Pour some clean oil down from the top to easily clean out the old oil.

    hey Jake any idea what this could be I got a C5 corvette myself and when I go around a turn I have water come into the passenger cabin on to the feet of the passenger thought it was the utters so cleaned them but its still happening

    • @FlamingWarHead
      @FlamingWarHead Před 2 lety

      It could be that your A/C condensation drain tube could be clogged causing it to leak into the footwell
      If that’s the case you can make the opening bigger so it’s less likely to clog and make sure to give the hose a squeeze so any remaining water in it will clear out 👍

  • @bigbenisdaman
    @bigbenisdaman Před 2 lety

    My pump is still there, shoulda took it out when I did the fog/parking lights, but didn't so there it'll stay. Your oil pressure sensor, i was able to take a coat hanger and unplug the wire then a oil sensor socket and wobblehead got the sensor out w/o taking intake off, took like 20 min.

    Only use Mobil One oil filters w/ Mobil One oil. Little known information says both the filter in combination w/ the oil has a positive effect cleaning your engine, together they are simpatico having shared attributes that compliment one another.

    • @gerardomedina333

      Nothing happens if you use the PH44 from AC Delco with Mobil 1 oil. Regards Mr.

    Bro save yourself.!
    After disassembling many engines and seeing all of the oil still inside after draining trust me it's not worth all this effort to get a couple of additional ounces out.

  • @gemstater4893
    @gemstater4893 Před 2 lety +1

    Jake, as always I enjoyed the video. But it's time to change your mind on FRAM. No! Seriously. Here's why. Look for the industry standard ISO 4548-12 multi-pass test. According to ACDelco, their oil filters are 64% efficient at 20 microns and 99% efficient at 40 microns. So good at stopping bricks and birds, but not much else. Now consider that FRAM has varied tiers starting with their famous orange can. Their top-level oil filter, the FRAM Ultra Synthetic is leaps and bounds above the orange can. With wire backed synthetic filter media and metal end caps. It’s filtering efficiently is 99+% efficient at 20 microns. According to the SAE, “Controlling the abrasive contaminants in the range of 2 to 22 microns in the lube oil is necessary for controlling engine wear.” So next oil change for the Vette, I suggest a FRAM XG3506. FRAM Ultra is all I use in my vehicles.
