Re: bubbles in the cooling system. Kyle called this AM and suggested that I dismantle my compression checker and blow 30 to 40 psi back into the cylinders to check for bubbles. After taking out the schraeder valve inside, connecting the hose to the plug hole, finding top dead center on each cylinder, ..... no bubbles in the expansion tank. Thank god. Well, I guess it was pretty late last night so .... I don't want to say I panicked or anything...... Onward to solve the fuel pump/filter issue and rebuild the alternator. THANK YOU KYLE!! on-on Ch Carl Hansen 952.440.2899 carl_hansen@ieee.org |
