Oh yeah, Phil said that because the wire for the temp sensor goes across my engine, the heat could be effecting it. I know it can happen but could it really make the after market one go that far out?

Well an induction kit will increase the power by roughtly 3-5% so that is a good enough reason to pump the insurance up 15% isnt it? The car will now be more desirable to steal. :confused: Stuart

Im on my way up North tomorrow. Doubt I will see you though, but will keep an eye out. :D Stuart

Im getting one from AndyZ. Hes wisking it here next day delivery :eek: which you can imagine is costing a few quid, but still way cheaper than Nissan's fan motor. My car never used to over heat. The pipes are hot to touch, water is not pissing out and the stock gauge has hardly moved. Probably goes from below the half way line to just above it, while my other one skyrockets. The thermostat is working apparently as the bottom pipe is as hot as the top. If its not working the bottom pipe is cooler apparently. Stuart

Look they said as long as the stock one shows normal you are fine. :confused:

Thanks Graham :confused: No. Just for the MOTOR of the fan...... £193+VAT I have two words for them. F*#k off Stuart

I just phoned Nissan for the price of an electric fan. Hmmmm Just for the motor of the fan, nothing else. Guess how much!!! Stuart

Some one called Matt emailed me and asked for a link to my vid I made, but when I try to reply I get a message saying messager delivery error or something. Is it any one on here? If so link below http://www.nissanzx.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ZX_Strange_and_Beautiful_DIVX.avi Stuart

What JCB incident?

Do you know what, its sticking. It needs a nudge to start moving. Hmmm, not the best. I think its not come on. I think I need a new rad fan ASAP. ;) Thanks Stuart, and Pete for taking an interest. :D

Do you know what you better check your radiator fan.

No one was answering so I talked to myself. ;)

DOH! I will take my car back tomorrow.

Yeah you are probably looking at that.

Yeah thanks. I was wondering if any one was going to answer. So you reckon the thermostat could now be sticking after it was taken off? Stuart

Yeah well Stuart, the thermostat starts to open at 76ºC and is fully open at 90ºC. It could be sticking closes slightly. They do have a habit of sticking closed. Have it checked out. Stuart 2

What is it 115,000 miles or 115,000km? There is a big difference.

Right I know I asked this before and Steve E told me that the fan only comes on at 105ºC and comes on full power at 110ºC so I presume when the temp is below that it is normal. I had a cambelt change and before then I it was running cool very rarely going over 80ºC and when it did it went no higher than 90º. Now after my cambelt change which the water pump was changed too, its getting to 100ºC too often. Today I was driving 50mph down the motorway at 2000rpm in 5th gear and the temp was about 95ºC. I accelerated to 70mph which was about 2500rpm for about 10 miles and the temp went up to 110ºC, when I started to get a little worried. Any help? Stuart

Again with the blurred pictures ;) Glad they came. I was begining to wonder whether they actually existed. ;) Stuart

I found that about the free stuff. Its is not free at all. If it was free, you are initially paying over a grand for a computer which will cost £500 to build. The free scanner and printer they talk about is the cheapest ones going which will cost us £40 to buy and I am sure if you buy it in huge bulk and at trade price will probably cost less than £20

Ask Nelson cos it will be more of a MASS thing ;)

He was the only man in the room

I dont think an MOT says you have to have them in the first place and a lot of cars dont have them. But it may be a thing that they have to have them past a certain year. Thing like that which are not on every car anyway, usually have a rule of if its there, it has to be working. So I dont thing whether it's flush or proud makes any difference. I could be talking out of my arse though/ Stuart

I cleaned my car already today. I also did an oil change and flushed out the water :D Stuart
