"I heard aux coolers with active fan are better to use than the ones that are part of the rad. Anyone has experience with this?"

You need the trans cooler as part of the rad ( at its bottom ) as that is what cools the trans fluid in our cars
You need to be aware of the hose inlet and exit as they are in different locations for different years

Hello folks,once the rain stops in my city I'm planning to install a new radiator. The old one is really messy inside. I searched on supplier sites but I'm not sure which one to buy:Copper oder aluminum, transmission cooler extern or integrated etc... Recommendations for me?Thanks a lot,SammySee More
"I don't recall you mentioning your carb. You mentioned that your mechanics are not used to american cars, and I wonder if the carb has been worked on or checked out. Remember, the thin metal shim has to be under the carb, and the 1/4 inch…"
"Right. Intake manifold leaks and sticky PCV whistle has nothing to do with RPM. My leak and sticky PCV whistling were not RPM related at all. PS: The intake manifold gasket is not part of the carb. It's between the…"
"How do you want to send the money? :-)I agree that it is not a typical bearing sound, but in my opinion it can't be the intake or anything related to the carb cause it's not related to rpm.Driving in D : WHISTLINGDriving in N:…"
"I agree. I'll bet a year's wages it's either PCV or intake gasket. Those both cause intermittent whistling and both disappear (usually) when idling."
"The noise on your recording does not sound like a bearing related one to me. It sounds like a pressure issue in the vacuum system or pcv as already mentioned. You've done a lot of things, but I would redo all of the pressure related…"
"Hi Douglas, I changed brakes and wheel bearings twice because of the whistle sound. As far as it doesn't appear at all while standing still and idling or rising rpm while standing, I still believe it's something on the rear end…"
"Thanks, yes I did change it last year for other maintenance reason. But like the possible intake leaks this should occur while idling and not only while driving. "
"I would also try servicing the PCV valve. It's a very quick and simple operation. If you are only driving in the summer it may well be stuck or tacky enough to stick in a partially open mode sometimes. This could cause the…"
"Your recording sounds like a pressure leak of some kind. I would'nt give up on a vacuum leak yet. Sometimes they are hard to pinpoint, and are in the accessories especially the monkey motion on the climate control a/c, whether…"
"Hi Douglas, the spray I use is doin' exactly the same thing. But no rpm change, so I guess there's no leak.AC is off, I already tested all these things. The sound is never heard when the car is standing still, only when…"
"Thanks. Where can I buy them? "

Bad Guage?
Posted by Karl Schwarz on August 26, 2020 at 3:08pm 6 Comments 0 Likes
So I am troubleshooting my fuel gauge issue. I bought a new sender and tested it. It it goes from 1-ohm (empty) to 35-ohm (full). When I test it (outside the tank), when the float is in the up (full) position it only moves the gauge to about 1/2 full. When at the bottom (empty) position the gauge shows empty. This is the same issue I have when I fill and then use the gas in the tank - the gauge never reads ore than half full. Based on what I've read on this thread it would seem like the…
