Hmmm.. that Haste radiator is new, and looks almost exactly like my Koyo.
Not diggin the rivets in the end tank, that just screams potential failure point, not to mention it might be covering up the Koyo stamp...
Didn't mean to come off as an ass, but we see it all the time.
You know the vacuum lines aren't hooked up, so that would be the first think you need to get sorted. Vacuum can cause all sorts of issues...
No, it doesn't work that way.
You're hoping that your radiator will act like a heat sink, when that's not it's purpose. It's a heat exchanger.
Get a fan shroud on there and I can almost guarantee you won't go over the T-stat's opening setting. That is the way the system is supposed to...
Try a highway run, you'll realize you're not any slower ;)
But the good news is, fuel cut DID IT'S JOB. It's there to protect the engine in case of wastegate failure in exactly your case.
I'm with you...
But I'm going to say this.
YOU ARE GAINING NO MARGIN. YOUR COOLING SYSTEM IS ALREADY MARGINAL. THE T-STAT CAN NOT MAKE THE ENGINE COOLER ONLY THE RADIATOR AND WATER PUMP CAN.
Yeah, but knowing Toyota there was a reason...
Doubt there is any documentation left that would shed some light on it, kinda sucks as I'd like to know myself...
I need to drive a 7M crank car to see what the difference is...
yep, lower in the ECU as well...
Maybe there was a harmonic at that speed that they found in testing? We can't really know, but they certainly had a hell of a lot more money and time to test it...
You're misunderstanding what the T-stat does.
It's a device to keep the temp at the optimal level, namely at the spec on the T-stat. Any colder and it closes, any warmer and you don't have enough cooling capacity and your system is marginal.
If you had a fan shroud and a stock T-stat, it...
It would need a cage to be safe to drive...
If it could be done that easily, then the OEM's would put extra reinforcement in convertable/removable roof cars. Supras have a lot of bracing under the car on the targa models, and the doors on the targa models become stress members while they...
Wrong.
A fan without a shroud will suck air from the tips and around the radiator instead of THROUGH it.
I don't care what your temps where, it just means the radiator was working as an effective passive cooler/heatsink. Get in stop and go traffic and you will heatsoak it eventually and...
Find out EXACTLY what your rights are.
In Texas you have a TON of rights in this situation. If he defaults, the bank then becomes your new landlord and you have the option of actually buying the house or renting the same way as stated in your renting contract.
Don't drop the ball on this...
Oh come on...
Ok, this is gonna sound gay, but look at his eyes, no crazy there...
Rest of the face...sure, but he kinda reminds me of a young Phil Collins.
And this is why I am DEFINATELY not posting a pic of myself LOL
