I'm going to try that out too.
For my 95 gsx, mods close to stock, I've been having some weird water temp issues. On the stock water temp gauge, normal driving and before I've noticed, the ping would only go up to half. Now, i've noticed that it reaches up to 65-80% of that gauge. But by turning on my heat, it will go down.
(If there is a problem. I've never really looked at that temp gauge until recently when that dumb hose popped off by the alternator.)
What i'm wondering is what you guys think would be the problem? I'm still a rookie at working on a car, but this is what i'm going to do. (If you have a suggestion, please let me know).
First, I'm going to buy / upgrade a new thermostat. 180*
Second, I'm going to add some drops of soap to my coolant. (Read it in other thread. Sounds good to me. Only dawn in my baby.)
Third, I'm going to figure out if my fan works. Recently, I haven't noticed it.
Fourth, Figure out how i'm going to take out my radiator and clean it. (Never taken that out before.)
Last of all, my coolant light is ALWAYS on in my car. It comes on and off every six months or so. I've never figured out how to fix it. The coolant in the radiator is full. Resevoir tank is good. Never really seemed to be a problem but it is always making me paranoid..
What could be wrong with it?
