Overheated! *Fixed*

[L36Camaro]

Oh, Eric I will still be going to the UCF meet. In the morning I will have my buddies at the local shop do a coolant flush on my car, then I will try one more place called Tuffy to see if they will replace my Cat w/ the Bullet. If they don't then we can for now do some other basic tuning on my car like torque management, and making those d*** cooling fans come on sooner, maybe like 180*. Sound good?

I forgot to mention, the antifreeze smells like really bad fish! [img]graemlins/barf.gif[/img] I Can't wait to get it flushed!

luckily you didnt stick your nose in there [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img]

if you keep running it hot like that, your going to blow a head gasket.

The cat situation in our state is a tricky one. My old truck had an exhaust system, cam with cats, wanted the cats gone so we torched the ****ers out of there and went to the exhaust shop with no cat on.. the welded a connecting pipe and called it a day. In FL, Legally they can't remove them, but there's nothing that says they cant fix it once it's gone.

You might also want to change out your oil, it will break down much faster because you have been overheating the engine.

Continuing to drive a car with an overheat condition is asking for disaster.

Problem Fixed! Eric did a basic tune w/ HP Tuners, and one of the things he did was lowered the Cooling Fan temp on/off. For some reason fan 1 came on at like 221, and fan 2 came on at like 230! Now there set for my new Hypertech 180 degree PowerStat w/ a Coolant Flush.
