WHunter, I like the way you think!!

We really really really need to have this made into a sticky!

With guys like you, Randy and Greg (and others....but Randy and Greg are local and very vocal) newbies like me stand a much better chance of happy motoring!

Thanks for your efforts!

Great indeed! This has to be sticky for sure.

If I had such diagram some months ago I would have had a much easier time performing a cooling system service on my car.

Oh by the way:

Speaking of drain plugs, does the block heater element replace the drain plug????

braverichard

10-20-2004 11:09 AM

What drain plug? If you're asking about the engine block coolant drain plug then the answer is no. They co-exist together.

The Block heater is about 4 inches higher and 4 inches further back on the motor than the coolant drain plug. If yours isn't there it has a 19 MM hex plug in it that REAL BIG.

My car has an alarm? I didn't think the manual mentioned it. I'll have to look again.

Edit: Wait, I get it. The door alarm, headlight alarm, etc.

2nd Edit: Well, doesn't work, but still good to know where it is.

Thank you very much Whunter.

Sorry, this is a security alarm that I am speaking of.

Easy test
Open driver window.
Set in driver seat.
Reach out and lock door with key.
Put key in pocket.
Open driver door with inside handle.

If alarm goes off, close door, lock with key, and unlock with key, it should be off now.

The factory alarm uses the vehicle horn, and lights.

An actuator and servo are the same thing; it's the thing that actually makes something move when you send a signal to it.

I have some more.

What's this? I assume it is my temperature sensor. But I just drove around with it off and temperature still registered.

This looks like the same thing but it's by the banjo bolt.

And sorry for this, but I'm a turbo idiot. I would take it off just to see, but I was afraid it might start squirting oil all over me, so I'd ask first.

I believe that this switch is the grounding switch that allows the blower to operate. When cold, the blower doesn't work until the engine gets up to a certain temp. This switch closes and allows the blower to function.

That should be the pressure switch that will trip the overboost protection valve if the manifold pressure exceeds 15 psi.

It's easy to test it..........and confirm the issue.

If that is a grounding switch for the blower motor, where would the water temperature sender unit be?

That one should be on the driver's side of the head, near cylinder #3 or so, IIRC.
