new radiator

Dont know if i mentioned this in the last post. but the car has been plagued with overheating problems. the old radiator was leaky and had a few issues. so i purchased a new one for a Nissan B14 and installed it in the car (i swear this car is half B14 now).

i had to modify the lower mount to get it to work along with cutting a few hoses but it fit now, haven't had the chance to test it really just left it idling in the drive way. while the temp stayed down i wasn't too impressed with a few aspects of it. such as excessive bubbles in the overflow bottle.

however at least the system pressures up nicely now. so less air trapped in the cooling loop. will have to test it and see how it goes. if anything. time for a trip to the mechanic

see ya

Muffler fixed

 
hey guys whats good.

so i finally got around to fixing the exhaust on the vehicle. i got a muffler shop on
Tumpuna road. arima, to remove the old one and install a new one.

apparently the old one installed by the previous owner was too big and was for a diesel engine, did not know there was a difference with those. oh well the technician installed the new one and the car sounds sweet now.

so now i dont wake the whole street up when i get home at 2 am. lol

see ya.

its working

i know its been a while....okay a long while. since i have given an update. but here is one any way. so as you can see shes up and running. made it from arima to trincity. only problem is that she has a power steering leak and keeps over heating due to problems with the radiator.

sigh any one know where i can get a used radiator for sale....meh

well shes been driven for a week now and has shut down three times due to overheating, will have to look into that. plan to do some work on the radiator over the week comming. will elt you all know how that goes.

see ya
