Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

Cherries *

well my moonshine watch you as you drink makes for some very funny fights.

Finally.....
Stupid car, so hard to pull these out its like they glued it or something.


Anyway new spark plugs.
Hope to feel something different.

Btw is this a normal temp?

you should get better MPG from changing your plugs and wires. as for power you may get .1 hp more

Dashcmd don't buy it's like 50$
I'll send it to u if u want (if ur iPhone is jailbroken)

Awe u have htc.
There's something called torque.

temp is normal for a car sitting idling.

It was sitting idle for 30 seconds only.

How and world can any person say 221 degree coolant temp is normal for idle..get that fixed man
.

It get 225 sometimes.

You being n/a and reaching that coolant temp seems odd hottest my Gxp gets in Arizona summer with a/c and stock thermostat is 210 max my gtp had a 180* and a Zzp tune so I never saw over 190ish

I know I drive hard to the gas.
Anyway how can I get it lower?

Replace thermostat and make sure the coolant is topped up and bled. The fans should have been on is it was at 220. If that doesnt help, make sure the coolant is flowing properly. Some can feel the difference in lower/upper rad temps but of course once it's completely up to operating temp nobody in their right mind will hold it. Just when it's coming up to temp, the lower should be cooler. If not, flush the system and check the water pump.

Mine's a GT and even with the stock t-stat I'd run around 200-205 in warm fall weather. Now with a 180 I run about 190-195 in the summer.

Highest mine ever gets is 195ish.

Bought more stuff for it.

Bought a headlight housing, Silverstar headlights, and a header panel off of Amazon to fix part of the deer damage. Then I went on eBay and bought an extra key, two FOB's, and a new keypad for my current FOB.

Not a bad way to spend $170. Now all I need is a hood.
