Re: Getting the Laser ready for AutoX

Holy triple post batman!


Figured out my over-heating issue. The stock fan wasn't turning on for some reason. I'd let it sit in my garage and idle all the way up to 210 and nothing. So I spliced into the fan wires and ran a switch inside. I wired it so I wouldn't need the key in the ignition so I can leave the fan on to keep the engine cool after shutting it off.

She runs so cool now, 160-170 through town with the fan on. On the highway I didn't need the fan on yesterday, but it was raining so we'll have to wait for a really warm day.

I am very happy with the way it turned out. She runs absolutely flawless. Next up I got to replace all the wheel bearings, ball joints, and I would like to get poly bushings for the suspension, sway bars, and find an equal length axle setup.
