    Always check your fluids

    That's a lot of oil gone and no smoke that I can see. The only smoke I see is at first start if it's cold but there is a strong smell. When does the oil light come on? When there's no oil left or when the engine blows

    Spill-proof funnel radiator cap attachment doesn't fit.

    Any links. I made a funnel with the same hose connection as yours but it still leaks. It's not a tight seal. Do you have a link of the funnel you have that will fit a VZ inlet

    No only the thermo fan. The aircon works fine.

    No climate control. It's a 2005 VZ Wagon Lumina. Just normal aircon. Which relay or fuse is the small thermo fan. The big fan kicked in at 104 when the aircon was on the smaller fan didn't kick in

    When I drive with the aircon on the temperature stays down. It still does creep up but not as much as it does when the aircon. Is off

    When the car is cold and I turn the aircon the passenger side never comes on. It comes on very rarely. But the bigger driver side fan always kicks in at 108c

    I even used liquid intelligence and left the water and the powder they give in my car for about 5 months and now my engine bay has white **** all over it and it's hard as **** to get it off. It's like calcification. How do I completely remove the water without removing the thermostat.

    Good Quality Radiator

    For the live of me I can't get the temperature gauge to stick to one spot. I have tried filling it with a funnel it when the temperature gets hot it just bubbles and spits coolant everywhere. I don't get any bubbling when I start the engine and have the cap off. Something somewhere is not right...

    I have changed everything a year ago in the cooling system but it still the temperature gauge still goes up then back down
  23. scaredyet

    Good Quality Radiator

    I might. Because I've been having trouble for a few years where the temperature fluctuates it's never on the same position on the dial. I will drive then when I get to a set of lights or traffic it will creep up and hit 108 then the thermo fan kicks in then goes down. If I drive on a freeway...

    How thick is my girth?

    I ended up getting calibre branded hoses which are made by Mackay and Calibre branded hose clamps which were pretty cheap. For the bottom radiator hose (Part Number CH3723C) I used 21-44mm Automotive Hose Clamps on both ends. For the upper radiator hose (Part Number CH3722C) I used a 27-51mm...

    LED Globe VZ SS Projector Headlights

    I recently got a replacement SS VZ Headlight as the old one melted after doing the high beam low beam MOD and now I want some LED globes to fit the new headlights. I understand these should run cooler than halogens. Does anyone have a recommendation on a good set of globes?

    Coolant Level VZ Alloytec V6

    I have been going through genuine radiator caps like no tomorrow. The tridon caps from supercheap work much better. Just paid $45 for a genuine cap about a month ago then the overflow bottle started to bubble. It's the 3rd one in the last year
