    no thermostat

    I took my thermostat out when I was trying to flush my coolant last year. It leaked noticeably. In retrospect I should have tried to leave the gasket in there...

    Am I the only stock car in here?

    I wish my car were stock right now, but it would be less fun that way...

    Best production year MkIII Supra

    The main reasons I chose a 1991 the second time around was for the 6.5" front speakers and updated body style. Shadow grey interior helps too.

    Best production year MkIII Supra

    I was going to try and post logical arguments, but I came to the same conclusion you did. I'll waste my time elsewhere.

    Arizona's Monthly Toyota Meet

    I might be able to make it. My car hasn't been doing as well as it could lately... Is it still going to be in Tucson?

    Star Wars Fans.....

    Command prompt can be accessed in XP by doing: "Start->Run...->cmd". Alternatively you can open telnet.exe and type "open towel.blinkenlights.nl". Pretty neat, maybe I'll watch more when I have more time...

    Electric fan problems, again...

    The shop which did the flush less than a month ago did a pressure test... I am definitely losing coolant, I had to add some this morning to get the "birdcage" light to turn off. It isn't a very fast leak though, as it was several weeks before I had to add coolant. The car was hot and running...

    Electric fan problems, again...

    The area around the thermostat was dry. I couldn't see anything dripping from above the water pump.

    Electric fan problems, again...

    I looked under my hood again today and the top of my water pump was damp/wet with coolant. It doesn't appear to be leaking from above (either the thermostat housing or upper radiator hose), or at least it wasn't damp there. Yeah, I just need to get a water pump and find some time to install...

    Electric fan problems, again...

    Yeah, 210 or 220. My commute has a lot of stop lights. I know I have a problem with my cooling system besides the fans.

    Electric fan problems, again...

    Not sure how long it's been since the water pump was replaced, I'll have to look at the records. I want to look closer and see if I can verify that that is where it is leaking from. I would certainly rather have the stock fan back on at this point. However I bought the car with the electric...

    Electric fan problems, again...

    I think I'm leaking coolant from my water pump. There's a splash marks all over the timing belt cover in a spray pattern...

    Electric Fans 1 or 2

    I'm running dual electric fans. They've been more trouble than they're worth. I can go without A/C until low to mid 90's with the targa top off. That's only good enough to last until May here. June through August averages highs of 97-100 degrees with extreme highs over 110. I'll be keeping...

    I bought a vette

    Turbo'd would make me more impressed, but not really any more excited. Corvettes just don't have much passion for me. It really doesn't help that you see them everywhere. Makes it hard to go "Ooh look, a Corvette!" when you've already seen three in the last 15-20 minutes. I've also started...
