Was just wondering if anybody knows what this plug is for, found it disconnected with a resistor across it. It is on a December 93 vr v6 Thanks

thanks for all the help, went to Holden and explained where it was, got my o-rings and all fixed. Cheers

How many km on the car? Original water pump?

do u have the part number?

the 1 i pulled out didn't really come out in a O shape if u get my drift.

thanks guys, will give me something to do tomorrow.

thanks for the reply's what is the easiest way to replace it, and do i need to get a genuine Holden part.

hey, so i picked up a VS for 300 buks a few months ago, and i was told it had a coolant leak, anyway after it sitting in the shed for months i am deciding to try and fix it and sell it as i have no use for it. The previous owner said it had the inlet manifold gasket replaced and a few months...

hey, I have been thinking when it comes time to change the radiator in my VX V6 is it possible to put a radiator out of a V8 in it, Also do the V8's have stronger bigger fans that would just plug into the existing wiring for the V6 fans? If it isn't possible what is a good alternative? just...

What car is it v6 v8 how many km, there are better ways to get power rather then just putting a chip in.

Happened to our vz sv6 aswell was an o2 sensor we couldn't get the car booked in for a few days it still ran fine just a bit rich which made it drink a bit more fuel

We have a vt s1 never overheated in 9 years owning it. A vz owned it for 5 years never over heated. A vx had it 2 years nothing wrong. All cars are well maintained and fluid checks every month, living in the rural areas of Australia means reali bad locusts and they make a mess of the front of...

i think they might be for the heater core water inlet and outlet. easy way to test get the car up to temp and turn the heater on if it comes out hot they are somthing else if it is cold then it is for the heater. The old owner could have removed them if it had a leaking heater core, bit of a big...

Hey I have removed the front seat belt outa a vt as it wasnt retracting and a guy at a smash repairer said sometimes just give them a blow out and it sometimes frees them up cos they clog up with fluff and hair and dirt, so I have removed the big seat belt winder and now I can't get it to extend...

Soo turned out the fuel gauge sender unit was stuck, tank was dry, installed a new pump just incase new inline filter stuck 20liters fuel in it, turned the key it turned over 2 or 3 times and fired, runs fine. Bad thing is the aircon is low on gas hopefully a dry seal from sitting so long. Went...

sooo, went round and tried to jump start it, it turns over good but didn't fire, we disconnected the fuel line at the rail, no fuel, so the owner is goin to go buy a new inline filter, pump and battery for it, putting them in on saturday, hopefully then it will run. If it will run there isn't...

Hey, this may seem like a stupid question but do the series 1 vt have the fuel filter near the right rear wheel? I am talking about a november 97 built vt. Thanks

I hired the rug doctor with the upholstery attachments, worked fine on my car, mine wasn't very dirty tho.

just got off the phone to the owner, goin to look at it on tuesday arvo, he said there is fuel in it and i can try to start it, it will run but as soon as u go near the throttle or if it idles to long it just stalls, could it just be clogged inline fuel filer or clogged filter on the petrol pump...

Ohk I have spoken to a friend that is good with cars and he mentioned the duel pressure regulator are they hard to change?

I might be goin to look at the car this weekend, what is the bet way to check if the aircon still work's cos the car will only run for about 10 seconds, should I just turn the ignition on turn the aircon on then start it and If the fans and the compressor engage does that mean the system is fine?

What do the newer Calais like?

My intension of buying this car is to fix it up, do u think 1k or even 1.5k is reasonable?

that $3000 was nearly 12 months ago and i was enquiring on behalf of a friend.

just thought i would revive the forum and get some more people's thoughts, still thinking about getting the car, as it is still available, if i do get it what are some things to do as it hasn't been started in about 2.5 years, should i just make sure it has oil and coolant then give it a reali...

It is stupid, yes I am on my green P's and live in the rural parts of Australia where there is no public transport, so they expect you people to get government hand outs rather then going out and making a dollar for themselves, yes there is some stupid drivers out there but it can be put down to...
