ya it overheat bad that one time it still overheats but not as bad but this could be cuase i have been watching it close so it could be i stop it before it gets that bad

ya if i have to replace intake might as well replaced head gaskets dont you think? but eaither way it dont look like a fun job to do! lol

[sclark]

what is a block test? yes i have to check the fan it dont seems to kick on all the time i only saw it run once!!!

[sclark]

ohhh i see what a block test is grrrr i dont have one of thoses i was hoping there was other way without having to buy something in the mean time i will check fuses,fan,relay, etc

[sclark]

does anyone know where the IAC is located at in this model? as for the fuel pump do u know what the amps should be ?

thanks

[sclark]

very true eric i will keep that in mind AND becarefully if i do that

thanks all for the help

[sclark]

beefy – my one impact i cant turn down 🙁 my other one i can however i dont know what it would be turn down meaning how many ft-lbs..

ohhh ok on the green light i didnt know that!!! sorry about that

[sclark]

hello

eric i thought about that BUT impact would over torque the bolt and break it don’t you think? the book calls for it to be torque to 94 – 120 ftlbs

also the squeaking noise was the belt to just to let everyone know

[sclark]

ok get the new one in wow thats not fun!!!!! hard to hold the crank from turning when u r tighting the bolt down!!!!! any tips on that for next time..lol

runs alot better i do hear a squeaking nosie that goes away once the engine is warmed up i’ am thinking its the belt itself

[sclark]

yes it is a BAD harmonic balancer the rubber is cracked AND was the bolt was remove it came apart in 3 pieces!!! which as y’all know it shouldn’t do that!

I have a new one and the timing cover seal on order i figure might as well replaced that sense i have it apart!!!

so hopefully it will go back together ok!!!! lol

[sclark]

yes Eric i was thinking that to only problem is its one big belt so its hard to find what is causing the trouble

I hope Saturday its nice out and i can check it more

[sclark]

ohh i forgot to say one belt does the ac,power steering,water pump,alt,etc

[sclark]

hummm i will try that! due to the weather i wasnt able to make a video 🙁

[sclark]

beefy – that is what i thought if the belt is off i should still here the noise ya its not a vibration its a noise its weird

i hope the weather gets better so i can look at it again….. iam pulling my hair out on this!!!!! lol

as for the other thread yes i did sorry about that i couldn’t find the thread so i started a new one 🙁 but i will do what what u say in the future

on a side note i did find some info

iam thinking iam going to have to pull the pulley off so i can look at the harmonic balancer or maybe a mirror not much room there thats for sure!!!!

[sclark]

the fan is electric to Inspect the balancer looks like i will have to pull the pulley off to see the balancer right???? if that is the case to do that is alot of work if iam going to do that i migh as well replace it..

[sclark]

look on Google lots of info on how to make your own smoke machine! using baby oil,etc
