1980
The Humble Beginnings Starting it 1974, the International Race of Champions (IROC) opted for the Porsche Carerra RSR as their standard, universal competition vehicle. A year later, the governing body decided to switch to the Chevrolet Camaro, but the race was effectively discontinued in 1980.

Why is the odometer on my car not working?

It is used to determine distance traveled and due to previous problems with individuals and dealerships disconnecting the odometer, it is a federal offense to tamper with it. The odometer is used to give consumers information on how many miles are on the engine of a vehicle.

Why does my odometer stop spinning when I hit 200, 000 miles?

The only way you’ll know if your car hits the 200,000 mile mark is by having a functioning odometer. But the plastic gears that turn an analog odometer have a tendency to break, which causes the odometer to stop spinning. The good news is that this is an easy fix, as demonstrated by YouTuber Chris Fix.

Where is the odometer located on a Chevy?

The odometer is part of the instrument panel and connected to the speedometer. It is used to determine distance traveled and due to previous problems with individuals and dealerships disconnecting the odometer, it is a federal offense to tamper with it.

What should I do if my odometer is broken?

You need to pull instrument cluster to get at those gears, but it’s not too bad to repair so long as you know what you’re doing. Since you’ve got your cluster out, make sure you remove any dust using compressed air and clean the clear plastic using a microfiber cloth.

What was the problem with my 1988 IROC Z 350?

My 88 Iroc-z 350 did the exact same thing. It does it every now and then. Every once in a while it would get so bad that it stalled, throwing the check engine light on. I took it to the garage, and they said that they got a mass air flow trouble code, but they couldn’t find the exact problem.

Why does my Camaro have an idle problem?

Has idle problem about one day a week. Take a real good look at the throttle “butterfly” valve. They have a tendency to get buildup with dirt and will stick slightly open, confusing the computer into thinking that you are pushing on the “go” pedal.

What’s the idle speed of a 1988 Camaro?

When in gear (ex. Reverse, Drive, 2nd, 1st) my car idle “settles” around 750 on the tach, but then starts to fluctuate around there, moving up to 900 (or so) then dips down to about 500 on the tach. While the idle speed is fluctuating my voltage drops dramatically.

Why does my IROC Z 305 Ping so much?

You will get some pinging due to no EGR flow, but if the idle or just off idle improves, the EGR is opening too fast due to carbon buildup inside the valve and must be replaced.
