  1. the small hole in the thermostat helps to bleed the air out of the system when the stat is cold/closed. a 1/8" hole in it does the job just fine
  2. thats why i put the sensor in the lower hose. if the water going in to the engine is too hot, for whatever reason, i want the fans on.
  3. let me re-phrase that. it will narrow down the build date.
  4. look on the firewall above the brake booster. the serial # will be stamped there. the serial # will tell you the build date
  5. mine is in the lower hose. the water going into the engine is what counts

    i played with mine for a couple of afternoons and couldn't get everything to line up right. right now it is close enough for the girls i go out with. you can drive yourself crazy
  7. it does clean up the engine bay a bit
  8. did you measure the pistons and bores? maybe someone bored-honed the cylinders without replacing the pistons, which would result in blow-by past the pistons. just an idea
  9. sounds like maybe a slightly warped valve, or maybe something embedded in the seat. is the rocker too tight not letting the valve close all the way?

    it is totally dead. i used 3 cans of spray on it yesterday, and 1 on it today to get the remaining hornets. if i had to guess, i would say there might be 100-150 adults in that nest based on what i saw going in and out.
  21. +1 when you are done let us know what extras you have

    im not very familiar with the early stuff so i cant say. the dash tag matches the firewall and door tag. this guy has so many parts i dont think he can keep track, or if he even cares.
