    Question for ya!

    Double checked with the parts store, they carry a 160F, 180F, 192F, and a 195F. I've def got the 192F in it. It takes about 4hrs to replace the t-stat, and the 'CTS' is right beside it. Yes, 4 hours, remember VAN, I swear there is an engine under that hood! The other day it shot up to 205F...

    Missing coolant

    Sounds like a heater core. Make sure the radiator's full, drive til the truck is hot, close the windows, turn on the defrost. If it definitely is the heater core you'll get a much stronger smell, if it's a really bad leak your windshield will fog over! If it ain't your heater core hit us back, a...

    Ready to junk it!!!

    I've been getting a P0138, figured it was because of a Bosch sensor, so I did the research and got an OEM original equipment Delphi ES20046, still got the P0138. The engine seems to have a misfire kinda like a tiny vacuum leak, which I can't find one. 47psi fuel pressure, newer plat plugs. And I...

    Tech Question about TPS....

    I don't see any need to touch that screw, already cleaned the throttle body and put a new gasket under it, inspected the elbow for the map sensor too. My engine almost feels like its got a misfire, almost, more like a tiny vacuum leak. I got a code p0138, thought it was the bosch sensor so I did...

    Tech Question about TPS....

    .9 at closed throttle, ok. There is an adjustment screw on this throttle body. I'm not sure exactly where I'm starting, but I would like to be informed before I go through taking the 'Dog House' off, what a pain! I'm sure you saw ''VAN''
