89 MJ Posted March 30 Author Share Posted March 30 The switch for the oil light gave up the other day. I took this opportunity to order the correct sending units for my full cluster that I have. Hopefully those will come in this week so I can get on the cluster swap this weekend. I will probably swap in my grey dash at the same time, providing that I will have the time to do such a thing.

89 MJ Posted April 8 Author Share Posted April 8 I’ve been daily driving it for a few weeks now and had my first issue today. My brand new coolant pressure tank burst on my way to shoot trap. I haven’t had time to look into it much yet, hopefully I’ll get it fixed tomorrow or this weekend, at the latest. It is to be seen as to what the issue is. I’m not sure if the system had too much pressure somehow or if the aftermarket plastic pressure tank wasn’t up to the task. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair, I could smell that it was coolant though and not a fire. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pete M Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 that's some messed up quality control right there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

After some investigating, we believe that we had an air pocket in the cooling system. The heat works much better now too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pete M Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 been a while since I've thought about it, but shouldn't the cap fail first? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jdog Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Yeah I believe so, which means the bottle wasn't rated for the same pressure as the cap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
