It sounded like fireworks. Wood cracking and popping. I don't know what started the fire. There was a BMW in the garage. Now its just a shell.

Neighbors house on fire. I woke up to the sound of fireworks and when I looked outside I found this. The fire started in the garage. The firewall kept it from spreading to the rest of the house before the FD got there. Didn't get back to sleep till 4:00am from the adrenalin.

Quite the coincidence that you have this problem. I had a similar problem yesterday on my Suburban that sounds the same as you describe. One of the bolts that holds the caliper assembly to the hub bearing was missing and the other one was loose. The whole caliper assembly was just dangling...

OK I took a look with the scope and my naked eye. Piston head 1 and 2 look clean like they are made of a dull finish AL. Number 3 looks a little dirtier and 4, 5, 6 are full of carbon and cruddy with oil an such. :icon_cry:

You really don't want to squeeze or compress a boil or any other encapsulated infection. Like SC said you most likely ruptured that boil and spread the infection inward. Did your Dr tell you to take the antibiotics and use warm Epsom salt compresses on the boil? No.....! Probably not, give...

So if the piston top looks clean and new than that is wrong (bad news). Basically the piston is being steam cleaned. If the piston top looks brown and cruddy that's ok. I don't have a boroscope but I think we have a endoscope at work. TY

I replaced the rad cap and tested the new one. The radiator is new and the mating surface is smooth. I have a clutch fan. It is working as it should. It locks down at first start and than starts to release. As the temp rises during the idle I can hear the clutch fan engaging and moving more...

I had a coolant spill over last weekend after a highway drive. The temp gauge did not move but I don't put much faith on that. The next day I checked the rad and it was full but the reservoir tank was empty. I went to autozone and rented a block test kit, coolant pressure kit, compression...

Anybody here in the forum have a white MK3 in the Acreage area FL? If so PM me :icon_bigg

Flag it and be done with it.

Heater valve.... Try Jeff Watson at Champion Toyota.

Honestly you stumped me on both the issues. This is the tech section and I won't try to makeup the info. Congrats on doing the HG yourself. I been thinking of doing my HG but I'm scared. Hell, If a girl can do it so can I!! :icon_wink

If you don't want to pay the Toyota price try NAPA online. The majority of their hoses are made by Gates.

Pics first and then we help.... Only kidding. The power steering reservoir has a screen, it can become clogged and starve your PS pump for oil. See this thread about changing out the PS fluid and cleaning the screen. As far as the idle. You just replaced your HG so I would start by double...

I see you live in Miramar, FL. Try calling Pete at the Davie Tire Outlet 954 321 6618. He has been in the tire and alignment business for over 30 years. If Pete can't do it he will let you know and he is honest. . If Pete can't fix you up than you need to go see the alignment nazi at Weber...

Take a look at this thread.
