lol.. I was about to RAG your arse buddy.. because BLHTAZ posted the same link, but I laughed mine off when I saw it was for Pete... :thumbsup:

Stock closed system... ... & I'm more of a lurker... I watch what's going on... You get your woman into anther contest, and I'll go to TOWN! *** EDIT *** I've been home almost 90 minutes now and the engine is still hot enough to fry an egg and overflow tank is still "hissing" a little bit... tubes going out of right side of tank is still really Warm... *** EDIT *** Touché....... First thing I'd do would be a good flush.. ( I know your in Cali, but winter is coming up you know) If it still overheats put a pressure tester on it, if don't detect any leaks get a tester from parts a place and make sure your not getting any exhaust gases in your cooling system. Then go from there. I'm not saying thats whats wrong, but those test are free I think. Couldnt hurt I guess..

Yelp,,, you'll fit right in down in Bama,, as long as you don't say nothing.. :laughin: It still reminds me of a Humvee frame.. You should go with the bullet proof line.. Makes it sound more beastly...

looks like a Leer to me..

oh I see you never come around any more unless you need HELP with something..... :roll: I kiddin... Is it the closed system or did you change your rad??

lol I saw that too... lol

Did you put a Humvee windshield frame on your XJ?? Bullet proof glass FTMFW!!!!! :driving:

Whats up with the double spring perches??

You might want to give this a shot. http://www.shop.speedunlimited.com/Shop/Control/Product/fp/SFV/32401/vpid/4083676/vpcsid/0/rid/126429 That way you can manually adjust the rear bias, for extra weight in the rear, or what have you.

are you Trackers son?

Maybe a cow ate it? :D

The easiest for me to do was keep the MJ's prop valve. I just made two new lines using the flair nuts off the old lines. It was simple and works very well. Kelp the rear valve too.

has everyone voted?

That's ancient technolgy JT. :D We used portable regulated bulb ballast power supplies for starting torpedo motors way back when whan I was on subs in the USN. The $3 p/s you linked to sends unregulated pulsed DC to the battery and can quickly boil off the electrolyte if not monitored (or the house fuse doesn't blow first). Too risky for me matey. As far as running a 12VDC fan on a dedicated power supply, very doable. You are correct the fan will probably draw 12-15 amps while running, but the startup amp draw can go over 20A in most fans. You could use the 12V output of a PC power supply, but you really don't want it running over 75% it's capacity for long periods. So you would need at least a 500W PS to run the fan load w. no worries. :cheers: Thanks D-man. I think Ill go dumpster diving for a tossed desktop and rob it of its organs.... :brows:

0it looks like a good deal... the puke must of puked...

Hey Pete,,, your going to have a fun time moving all these threads.... ;)

http://www.alpharubicon.com/elect/3dollarbattggn.htm Sounds interesting.. Where you at Mr. Electrical Engineer Hornbrod??? NE 1 ever build a bridge rectifier out of diodes ? I have a old cooling fan I want to use in my tool shed to exhaust fumes.. I'm thinking it needs around 10-15 Amps.. I want to build a dedicated power supply.. Think a PC's power supply will push enough current to make the fan run good??

You look like Pai Mei... :rotfl2:

oh $h!t I got 29 mins to to read up!!!!

Hey that'd be hell'a cool too!

It stinks... I disconnected the valves rod tied it up to about the 2 o'clock position.. I hope those lines get bled too.. The biggest thing I hate about bleeding brakes is the getting up and laying down.. I'd love to have a lift!! I was just trying something out.. I'm sure I'm not the only one whos ever bled brakes like this.

thats some darn tooting good photochopping!
