Re: Runs Too Cold

The night that I drove the car the temp was ok, it rose to the 50.99% mark (every turbodsm i have ever owned/driven has operated similiarly)

it got pretty dropped down to ~45% when i drove it, but i assume that was because of a bad thermostat.

But this was a week ago, and I am curious as to WHY it is misbehaving now......you can put your hand on the engine, and if it is really running that cold you will be able to tell, but if it hurts your hand, then its probably running at normal temp, AND SINCE WE JUST DID AN ENGINE PULL, THE SENSOR/WIRES COULD HAVE BEEN DAMAGED/BROKEN -just a thought...

but for now, replace those gay ass OEM coolant lines with new ones, and get t-clamps for everything....I assume that those old hoses are the ONLY place your engine is leaking now (aside from the valve cover gasket leak)

so fix everythign you can, hammer out the easy things, did you get the wheel bearing replaced yet?
