despite the weight the mk3 seats are comfy and free and nothing can replace them at a fair price. for a while i was debating on if i should take my nismo racing seats from my max and put it in my 87 turbo because they are knew and feels softer but i just cant . i THINK THAT IF THE CUSHION IS...
i fixed the upper hose and now it doesnt overheat, gauge stays still no movement what so ever but earlier today after the car is fully warmed up i push it a little hard and it started to overflow. the coolant that was coming out wasnt even hot. it wasnt boiling. So could this be a clog somewhere...
yes it is humid here. weather channel always call for rain but it never comes. i had never thought of that. in a month when the air get really dry ill know for sure thanks.
the compression check was when engine was fully warmed up. i just got home from a 200 mile trip 10 minutes ago. i was stuck at a stand still for an hour on the way back totaling about 4 1/2 hours of driving. most of it was at speed of 65mph+(80 for at least a third way.) no sign of overheating...
a mechanic have told me after a compression (very good compression) and leak test that the leak is some where between the head and firewall but i cant see any coolant or wet spots. he said that i could be a hose or plate. or crack block. ? any suggestion. its supposedly BEhind the coolant hose...
subscribed, i have the same symtoms. losing coolant but not over heating. the car is still power ful and compression is at 140 all around, i cant see any physical cooant puddles but have to fill it up every three days. i do get a cloud of white smoke when cold starting. i will post in a few days...
i had a lex afm screwed all the way in and the my afpr was at 40psi. no other fuel mod. it was faster but not worth the bad idle and backfire from the richness, if u have good stock pump and injectors, wide band and fpr and not go crazy with boost then u should be good cause i was running super...
under the hood right behind the fuse box area theirs a small hole where two wires come out. its the antilock sensor. the wire was disconnected in 3 of my 4 mk3s. all I did was connect the clip where it had come apart and the light went away. or the sensor itself is dirty with brake dust. I'm...
the jiggle valve is right and i blew throught the hoses they r clear. im just gonna do the home depot mod and see what happens next and post it. if the hard pipe dont fix the problem then i will have to do the hg and new radiator.
sorry i read it again. i just got a new thermostat and cap from toyota and the gauge havent pass halfway hot since. is the return seal the smaller gasket on the cap?
the coolant does return and all of this happened whent the engine was running. are silicone rad hose stronger or stiffer then...
like every member on this forum. ive had a few overheating problems. ive did compression checks. changed caps and thermostats. flushed and burped the system over twenty times in the last few months = $100 plus. anyway, my next thing was to go ahead and upgrade the radiatior. and if that doesnt...
