[campbell18]

is the thermo fan conversion really worth the stuffing around??
if anything the cars running abit cold

how do i go about fixing this?? atm im lucky to enter the "normal" part of the temperature guage

[rhys]

hmm, your thermostat could be stuck open. Have you checked that?

[oatsie73]

Thermo fan conversion is great will free up power, rev easier and be a bit quieter. Pm me if you need some help checking thermostat

[BROCKYB8]

I have a ea 5 speed thats done low kms .

[campbell18]

okey dokey, how do you go about checking the thermostat?? My mechanic mentioned it a while back but i never really looked into it
cheers for the help guys

oh and as for the 5 speed brocky, im still looking into the conversion just struggling for money at the moment (part time wages)
schmee had one for sale not to long ago, fully installed for $1000, unfortunately i couldnt tee up the cash in time

[oatsie73]

Mmmmm $10 and 20 mins to put new one in ……

[BROCKYB8]

well Campbell talk to schmee because he will prob end up with the box anyway . lol

[campbell18]

if i opted against the manual conversion and went with new diff gears instead, how much roughly would i be up for including gears and labour??

cheers fellas

hey mate PM 'MR.CVE' on this forum. He tuned my car 143 RWKW with a VERY safe tune. I can run 91 octane and it still wont ping. Paul is his name and he has shit loads of experience with J3's.
