    Electric fan conversion questions (V6)

    Alright, my hydraulic fan pump is no good. I replaced the actuator before and it runs but now the pump itself is leaking from the back. I'm done with the hydro fan and switching to an electric fan but I need all the info I can get. Searching through the forums what I've found that I can either...

    Wheel Speed Sensor PSA

    Gen 1: has bolt in type sensors (hex key) Gen 2: has snap in type with retaining clips They are not interchangeable. That being said, I have a pair of gen 2 speed sensors for sale, I can't use them for my 2001. Also, maybe it's a good idea to replace them in pairs, or at least use the same...

    Throttle body coolant bypass

    Anybody know of a good way to bypass the hot coolant heating up the intake charge? I'd prefer it to be easily reversible so I can utilize it during the winter and then bypass during the warmer months, although it doesn't really get terribly cold here I doubt the TB will freeze up even if I did...

    7 Split Spoke Wheels

    Anybody know which trim package these wheels came from? I'm looking around to upgrade from my base 16's, but with this bolt pattern I'm stuck with either Jag/Volvo wheels which are costly or OEM. So far these look the best to me and would like to find some for a reasonable price. Are there any...

    Front end squeak

    What the hell is this man Outer tie rods are new (less than 10k miles), sway bar links are solid (moog), and the upper control arm has been replaced also (mevotech). That narrows it down to a ball joint or one of the 100 bushings on this one side, or the inner tie rods. The ball joint was...

    NOT overheating / car not warming up

    Outside temps have been 30-50 F lately, and while driving today my temp needle never got close to the middle mark. I checked with a scanner and it never got above 170, driving around makes the temps drop a few degrees, especially on the highway. Is this a fan issue, or a stuck thermostat? Fan...

    Bank 1 problems (misfire, low o2 voltage, lean)

    V6 250,000 miles Ok I did plugs/coils a while back, everything was fine until CEL came on. It was for the o2 bank 1 sensor 2. I replaced that with an ntk downstream sensor but the symptoms are still there. Now it's throwing a misfire code on cylinder 3. I got an obdii scanner and bank 1 sensor...

    Start/run car without intake manifold

    Ok i know this is a bad idea lol, but I just did valve cover gaskets, new coils and plugs, fixed injector connectors and I want to check for leaks, particularly in the spark plug wells and around the left hand side valve cover since that's harder to get to. This is a v6 btw My question is can I...

    2001 V6: 250,000 miles rate my engine lol A bit of sludge build up.. of course I'm gonna clean the gasket surfaces but what should I do with that stuff on the timing cover? Should I clean it by hand while it's off? Or run some kind of detergent with the oil when I get it back together? Or...
