Evil_Foetus Forums Junkie Location: Ballarat, Victoria Registered: March 2003	Re: 7mgte cooling issues Fri, 18 March 2005 03:05 woah, thanks for the replies guys! allan: i'm in ballarat. i did a little city driving today, and it stalled, idled like shit and the temperature gauge was up and down like crazy... so i don't think i'll be getting to melbourne anytime soon until it's running smooth again... but if you're in the ballarat area at all, your help would be awesome. if i head near melb in it, ill let you know. i'm pretty sure i still ahve your mob. number tim and others regarding cap: natrad said the cap was in perfect order, holding pressure etc. i think i'll buy another one anyway, just in case. anyone know if the TRD ones (18psi) are worth it, or should i just get a 13psi one that everyone seems to be using? josh: there's no mods on the car bar a K&N pod filter. it was running fine until about a week ago, so i don't know if thats the problem, unless: i cleaned the filter about 2 weeks ago. is there a change i put to much oil in it, and it got sucked in and fucked my engine? does it do that? really going on a limb here... but i'll try the manual valve. natrad said there's no air in the system and it's fine. but, after another check if i cant find a problem i'll try your trick anyway. can't hurt. the big thing is that at idle and low revs, its rough and poppy and gay. and the two biggest news flashes: it's eating petrol like crazy, (50km and 2 bars down) and there appears to be a massive oil leak on the side of the block- up the front, under where the alternator sits. it looks pretty fresh .... but again, the oil looks healthy as buggery today. and when i stopped the car, it wasn't blowing bubbles. the overflow tank wasn't as high as usual. the temperature gauge was still up a bit, but it wasn't idling as bad (but still like shit) as usual. it's madness, i tell you. your guys help is really appreciated.
