Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

found this lol have no clue if it will work



Perform the following steps:

Sit in the vehicle driver's seat.
Remove the ignition [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]key[/COLOR][/COLOR] from the ignition lock cylinder.
Close all of the vehicle's doors.
Remove the MALL PGM fuse from the fuse panel. Refer to Electronic Diagnosis in Body and [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]Chassis[/COLOR][/COLOR].
Turn the ignition lock cylinder to the ACC position.
Turn the ignition lock cylinder OFF, then back to ACC within 1 second.
Open and then close any vehicle door. You will hear a chime when the remote control door lock receiver enters the programming/diagnostic mode. If you do not hear a chime, start again at step 1.

Important
After 7 seconds, you may hear a chime confirming successful synchronization. After approximately 14 seconds, you will hear a chime confirming successful programming.


Press and hold the transmitter LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously for 14 seconds.
Repeat step 8 in order to program each additional transmitter.
Remove the ignition key from the ignition lock cylinder.
Install the MALL PGM fuse back into the fuse panel. Refer to Electrical Diagnosis in Body and Chassis.
Validate that all the transmitters that were programmed operate properly. Refer to Keyless Entry System [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]Operation[/COLOR][/COLOR] .

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.

I changed my tstat 5 months ago to a one from autozone (maybe duralast)

And the heat temp I show u here is a coolant temp from the sensor.
It's not what it shows me on the gauge.
On the gauge I see 210 but its never accurate as the sensor with obd2.

How can I tune my tstat to 180?
I have to send my PCM?

I just think whatever phone thing you are using is wrong.

If after just 30 seconds of you starting it up it got that hot, its wrong. Your IAT were over 140, there is no way that if you just started the car they could ever reach that.

Ok. So I was speeding after changing the plugs.
Before I got to my parking I checked my mailbox.
Than I parked took me about 30 40 secs to check.

And I have a ****ty ram intake that's why it gets hot when I stop.

It goes down to 60 when I drive.

Should I get this? http://shop.zzperformance.com/store/...ermostats.aspx

About to chop the flange off and Lincoln glue it if I can't get a decent solution.

Replace them with vband flanges an clamp, those 2 bolt flanges are awful, I could never get mine to seal

No it was already running, he said it was sitting afterwards for only 30 seconds

Just buy a Tstat from advance no need to get the same one from a place like ZZP!

So I helped the woman pick out this beast today. Went straight to autozone for a k&n

Took my car to my buddy's shop and I'll be doing my exhaust tomorrow morning. I'll post up a pic/video afterwards.
