Well I am confused. :nono:
The car temp gauge says it running cool and normal but when I get home from a drive and open the hood you can feel this thing cooking. The head gasket is good, had a leak down test done today. No probs there. No oil in the antifreeze or vise-versa. No white smoke, no nothing... But when I park the car its bubbling back thru the over flow. I checked the turbo and it is hot, I mean super hot... I think its running lean. So I replaced the temp guage sensor and the guage cluster and its a new harness on the motor. Still the same temp. I know my cold start injector sensor is bad. I was told that other than start up this also adds fuel under boost. Dont know if its true or not. Also my O2 sensor had gone bad as well.
Here is what has been done to the car since last week. Before this there were no problems.
Upgraded the CT26 with a 60-1 trim. I have a HKS 2mm head gasket, New Greddy timing belt. Head job with BBC chevy springs, 3 way valve job, new cams and shims, New seals on everything, new hoses on everything. New plugs, wires, SS turbo elbow, 3" down pipe. Hiflow fuel pump. AFM body from LS400 but supra electronics. Stock 440 injectors and I installed a hiflow electric fan. SAFC thais at defalut right now.
Fans are working and blowing like crazy.
