    Lots of Vibration at High Speeds

    To preface this, I am very limited in my experience to work on my vehicle. I am not a DIY type of guy simply due to lack of experience and time. I have done a search of the forums and still have the following questions. My vehicle vibrates substantially at high speeds. When I reach over 65...

    Post wax shots in the heat.

    Re: Post wax shots in the heat. Yes it is an AZ Ty. I sometime carry stuff in the back, especially when we go to Costco, my wife's car is too small. Although I have modified the truck it is still a daily rider. I am not very verse when it comes to the ins and outs of high performance, so my...

    Decent High Octane Fuel in the Valley of the Sun?

    Does anyone in the Phoenix Area know of any gas stations that sell 100+ Octane fuel? I know that some companys sell it, but I don't feel like driving around allover town looking for one. (much less calling the 1000 or so stations arund here!)

    Post wax shots in the heat.

    Re: Post wax shots in the heat. Just let me know. From the looks of it, it appears that we are spread out all over the valley! I'm in the Arrowhead are, there are people in Tempe, Queen Creek etc. I was at a mini car show in Friday in Phoenix. Not too many people knew about Ty's. They were...

    Post wax shots in the heat.

    Re: Post wax shots in the heat. Nice truck. When are the AZ SY/Ty's going to get together? :tup: Two things: 1. I have an original piece of that metal that goes on top of the IC, can't really tell if yours has it or not. If you don't, let me know if your interested. I had to replace my...

    Paging the AZ Guys - Looking for Info

    Re: Paging the AZ Guys - Looking for Info Back in 1994 I remember driving right by a white Ty, that's all I know about the vehicle. He may have damaged it himself and just bit the bullet and paid for the repairs to save on insurance rates going up. Sorry I can't be of more help.

    Saving up for New Paint Job Where can I find good outside emblems

    I am planning on re-painting my Typhoon once my wife cools off from my most recent Ty expenditures. I know that the decals/emblems on the Ty are probably not to be found at GM anymore. I also know that there may be people out there with a lot of talent that can duplicate the emblems. I want...

    Basic Economics About Our Trucks!!

    Re: Basic Economics About Our Trucks!! I'm curious as to why you would want the value of these vehicles to be somehow controlled (fair market value that is). I see no real benefit in that most people do not buy these vehicles as an investment. And we wont be able to insure them for $50,000...

    Hello from the valley of the Sun Phoenix

    Re: Hello from the valley of the Sun Phoenix I have never had a problem with the heat due to the AC. The AC not working correctly due to a minor pressure leak, yes, but the engine heating up - no. I've owned my Ty since 1993. The only mechanic that I know of that knows anything about the Ty...

    Sqeaky rear window

    Re: Sqeaky rear window It is very frustrating. It is worse during the summer. In the winter, it is hardly noticeable. It's embaracing when I have someonein the car. The vehicle is in very good condition and then it sounds like an old VW Beetle circa 1969! First things first, I need to burn...

    Want a Typhoon...but....

    Re: Want a Typhoon...but.... I too have a very busy schedule, have had one since I purchased my Typhoon in 1993. Adding two small kids in the mix does not help. I am however, very lucky in that initially I did not have problems with the stock car and when I did, I went to a dealer (it was...

    Sqeaky rear window

    I've owned my Typhoon since 1993. Pretty much since the beginning, there has been a sqeak in the area of the rear window. I, as well as every mechanic I've seen, have tried to figure out the sqeek - no help. Also, the button in the front that pops open the rear window doesn't - though that...
