So let me get this straight. Of the billions of videos that are on the interwebz... The fact is that "it" didn't work.

Is that about right?

I hit the upload a file I got it to download off my phone and normally it pops up underneath the text box and ask for thumbnail or full image but it did not do that so i don't know what I did wrong

Finally got around to washing the car in a while. She cleans up pretty good I think.

So been driving the car here lately on the cooler nights, now I'm noticing that the car is running hot. I believe I have a radiator that is too small of a capacity. It does this when I'm driving at highway speeds it starts to get above 200. I ordered a new 3 row radiator to hope this will fix the issue.

Do you have an air dam installed? Could be a cheap fix.

 

[MikeH686]

Are you talking about the black plastic piece at the bottom? No I don't and never had one when I had the t5 installed

 

[hoopty5.0]

Lots of people have had overheating issues at highway speed that was cured by replacing the air dam. There is a guy on corral who makes a nice piece from sheet metal that lots of people swear by. It's cheap and couldn't hurt.

 

[MikeH686]

I'll have to check it out then I'll get one from the junkyard by me

 

[hoopty5.0]

You can make one yourself out of sheet metal for less than $20 I'd bet.

Is it only at night? I had a bad ground that would spike my temp gauge with the lights on.

The airdam forces airflow over the rad, Ill bet hoopty is spot on that it will fix the issue,

I did it for that reason too and noticed a diff. My car was missing it for some reason
