Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT NORMAL POSTED SPEEDS (65 MPH) AND MY ENGINE ALL THE SUDDEN CUT OUT. IT STUMBLED AND DIED. I HAD IT TOWED BY L&A WRECKING COMPANY TO THE SHOP. TURNS OUT IT WAS THE VALVE SPRINGS THE FAILED (APPARENTLY VERY COMMON WITH CORVETTES) AND ALMOST CAUSED A HUGE WRECK DUE TO ME HAVING NO POWER.
