ok, now that its 105 plus degrees in calif, i have developed a new problem....can you guess what, :3d_frown:, i went to a show this past weekend, drove about 150 or so miles one way...when....the guage started to get hot, ran for a while at around 3/4.....
now....i kept driving, only because it would cool itself back down to ablut half. now i have the flex-a-light fans on it with the thermastatic controller set at lowest temp, fluidyne radiator, stock ct-26, the car runs perfect, now...ive had the car checked for b.h.g. even though i have the mls on it, and everything came back negative, now, i have been told to take the electric fans off cause they suck...but i say, in town...cooling is fine, no probs, only on the freeway, here's the senario.....
heading north on interstate 5, about 80 or so, temp is ok, im keeping an eye on it, then it starts to get to 5/8 up, then 3/4 and kinda stays around that area, after slowing to bout 70 it cools off a bit, but....few miles later climbs back to 3/4 and teases to go higher...now the weird part.....
i thought, turn the heater on, see what it does....well shoot...it cooled all the way down to 1/4, and stayed there, BUT...on the way home, 2 days later....it did not cool it down, it was 3/4 to about 2 lines under the red allllll the way home, and when i hit an accidesnt i thought..CRAP, it gonna way over heat.....NOPE.....cooled right down...well, bout to half way,
ok, now that you have a small idea of the hell this thing is doing, i did notice that my heater hoses are routed all wrong, and i know this cause i looked at 4 others. any ideas on what i can check????:1zhelp:
