    Thermostat issue? Motor runs very cool.

    yeah although its not leaking, it looks old a crusty as ####, something I wanna do soon, as well as flush the core out. Just looks a prick of an area with abs in the way, my mates VP has so much more room in the bay than my VR

    Thermostat issue? Motor runs very cool.

    You guys must just have super cool systems, mine runs pretty much 1 line above a quarter, gets to half in traffic, but fan takes care of it from there. I do need a coolant flush though, my heater isnt as great as it should be....

    Vr v8 missing after 20min of driving

    yeah its pretty much one of those things that you can get first time or takes you 20 tries to find the problem. As mentioned above, undo all your earths, give them a good cleanup/wd-40, give the contact point a light sand if its convenient. Check all leads, especially if ones getting close to...

    Spark plug leads

    I think I paid $60 for a set of eagle 8mm. They are probably the most highly recommended aftermarket ones. Its just the insulation thats a bit thicker, not the actual core itself. If your leads are rooted any new set will do the job though.

    which oil for my non lsd diff????

    funny thing is, on the castrol lubeguide, it says to use the SAF-XA which is fully synthetic, yet the footnote 187 says only use synthetic when diff has a "high performance" tag. I think lsd oil in a non lsd is fine anyway, use just cant use non lsd oil in an lsd.

    Yet another oil thread

    I was more talking about the operating temperature rating, ie going from a 15w30 to a 15w40. What you said is entirely correct. In fact 15w40 is what I would use for a buick/eco that doesnt use any or leak any oil. If those problems are starting to occur, a 20w50 may help, though as brett said...

    Yet another oil thread

    off the top of my head for the buick V6, holden recommend a 20w50 oil, or for cold climates, a 15w30(or40). Oil quality has changed alot in the last 15 years or so i've read recently, and due to that alot of oils that were available are becoming redundant (20w40 being one of the most popular, as...

    Yet another oil thread

    in my opinion id be running something a bit thicker in an ecotec with that many km's, Over 200kms I would use a minimum of 15w40, and over 300 id be looking at a 20w50 or the Penrite HPR15 at least.

    Broad but, Best engine oil for a V6?

    20w50 is way too thick for an engine of that age, you shouldnt start using that till about 200+kms. Switch to a 10 or 15W 40, you should notice better temperature, and fuel economy on an engine with those sorts of km's
