Greetings! I could use some help locating an aftermarket coolant temp sender and choosing an adapter. According to the research I’ve done on this site, I have found the following:
Location 1&2 = 1/2” BSPT(top of head)
-depth = ~14mm
-if you use these locations with an oem sender you probably...
Hey all. I know this is a toyota forum but coolant is coolant to some degree...
Went to look at a 60k mile 2009 f150 with my Father in law. 5.4 v8 gasser. Former utility fleet vehicle for the electric company.
Pretty sure this motor is specd for motorcraft gold coolant. Looks like a great...
I want to make sure I have all the lines hooked up in the right spots between the two heater cores, shut off valves and water pump. Couldn't find a thread that covers it but this thing is notorious for head gasket problems and im trying to eliminate things.
Hey guys, got some coolant leaks on the pipe from the thermostat all the way back to the firewall. PAIR system has been removed on my '94, so I'm looking to move to the 1 piece solid pipe from the 95+ which I know is now NLA. I know there are a couple other items that are probably NLA so it will...
I took out my front and rear heater (tragically busted the rear motor, after I discovered it working 45 years later).
I stupidly filled my coolant back up and of course it poured out of the rear heater tubes.
While I wait for my rebuild kit, can I just get a u shaped tube and run the lines...
I recently bought a used engine from a Japanese half-cut. It's in great condition, except that it seems to have been left long-term with just a trace of coolant/water in, and the inside of the coolant passages is rusty. I have flushed out a lot of rust sludge with a hose, but I am still concened...
For all the threads about failed radiators (and finding the best replacement), I'm wondering how many original radiators are still functioning just fine.
I'm about to hit 190,000 miles on my '07 LX, which I keep up pretty well (all fluids changed regularly etc.). Radiator is original and looks...
Hey All,
Getting ready to do a coolant change on my 88 22re.
Looking at the fsm , it says to drain radiator and petcock on side of engine block.
I was doing a search on threads about it, and did not see anyone mention the engine block
drain.
Good to go only doing the radiator?
The bottom of the...
I have a 2011 LX570 with 200k miles. I was replacing a u-joint on the front drive shaft when I noticed evidence of a coolant leak. It appears to have been leaking for a while but not enough to make it to the garage floor.
It's hard to see where it's coming from but I can see most of the leak...
Before I start tearing things apart I’ve been trying to pin point the leak but haven’t been able.
My guess is the radiator itself that leaks once it gets to operating temps. Cause I found the leak after months and it only needed a gallon.
Who has the best OEM prices? Or a link to a decent...
Hey Mudders - Feel free to tell me I'm overthinking this, it's actually what I'm hoping for! Before a camping trip last weekend I popped the hood on my 2014 and noticed the coolant reservoir was empty. Then I did what any reasonable Land Cruiser owner would do and searched this forum and...
Got a 94LC inline 6 with 335k on her. Love the truck. Unfortunately it has a once in awhile, I ate up all you coolant occurrence. Happened 2 years ago and caught it just fine. This time after about 7-10 miles down the road, she got pretty hot. Noticed it, pulled over and turned it off. I let her...
This looks and feels like coolant. Could it be? From behind the rear tire?
2021, 67k. I don't yet know the systems on this truck like i did on previous land cruisers
Dear Mudders,
there might won't be many FZJ100 owners on this forum, but i'm trying my luck anyway!
What readings do you normally get driving around in 20-30°C ambient temp. weather? the highest reading on the temp gauge I've ever seen is a tick below the mid mark (that was after 2hrs/200km...
Yesterday I either overheated or busted a hose and all the coolant leaked out. Not really sure where to start. Whats the best way to troubleshoot coolant issue? Should I fill with water and see if theres a leak somewhere?
I heard a whining noise that sounded like a belt. could that be related...
Hey all, new here.
Just bought a lx470 and have noticed I'm losing coolant. Can anyone give me some more info on what I need to do here?
I know I need to replace that hose probably or at least the ring. But what's going on with the bit going into the engine itself, fixable? Or replace that...
I noticed by accident some coolant deposits on one of the tee's so I ordered the metal ones when doing the timing belt. One of them totally disintegrated when removing it. I suppose I should do more routine inspections.
