Re: further to recent post on coolant issues Posted by Saabu [Email] (#1133) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Saabu) on Sat, 3 Feb 2018 14:06:09 In Reply to: Re: further to recent post on coolant issues, Justin VanAbrahams [Profile/Gallery] , Mon, 29 Jan 2018 13:12:02 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
last night i attacked the thermostat/sensor job with parts from my mechanic. he's backed up so i resigned to do it myself. the motor was warm so i had that to help me battle the -10C in the garage.
emptied the coolant reservoir with my fluid sucker thingy first. some coolant missed the pans underneath but not much.
Not a big deal other than having to lean over so much to get my 1/2 ratchet extensions and wobbly joint into position to get at the 2 13mm bolts.
sensor came out fine with a 19mm deep socket, then used an open end wrench to tighten the new one rather than the deep socket.
thanks again for all your help and advice, gentlemen!
