Re: 94 firebird thermostat question
I never had a problem throwing codes. but I live in virginia and when winter came around I had to go up to a 180 therostat because I was getting almost no heat in the car with the 16095 Firebird<br /> <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/673250\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/673250</a> <br /> <a href=\"http://photobucket.com/albums/y217/andrewbrandon19/\" target=\"_blank\">http://photobucket.com/albums/y217/andrewbrandon19/</a> <br /><br />me on a good day------> <a href=\"http://communicatio.webblogg.se/images/wet_cat_113159625.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">linky</a> -
Re: 94 firebird thermostat question
Yeah it depends where you live man. If you are in a place where you have zero winter, then a 160 is fine. I live in new england, so I need a 180 thermostat.
I'd say the best thing to do is to do a search to see how to install a manual fan switch. No need to worry about throwing a code, and you can turn your fan on whenever you wish.--<b>David</b>--<br /><a href=\"http://bryant2.bryant.edu/~dsantore/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\">The <b>NEW</b> V6Bird Website!</a> <br /><a href=\"http://members.cardomain.com/thev6bird\" target=\"_blank\">Cardomain site</a><br />ΔXComment
