please let me know if i hosed this up right.

I have been trying to bleed the coolant since last night and its a very slow process.

bump

 

i can't tell if this is a serious question or not

 

i asked it so why would it not be serious. it just doesnt seem as if it is working. i have been watching the coolant temp and it seems to be higher than normal. so YES I AM SERIOUS

 

Haha awesome drawing dude.
But for real go on zzperformance.com and click one of their links they have one for if you have the end plate option done and one if you dont. I know all this because i am currently installing mine now

 

I haven't done the aftermarket H/E yet so I am not sure. But here's a free bump lol.

 

ok

with all of the crap and controversy surrounding ZZP, it made me kinda curious

 

ok......

ok i did all the hosing correct then. so what about my coolant temps being higher than normal?

 

have you tried contacting zzp?

 

no i was hoping for some inteligence from the forums

 

most of the intelligent heads have left

good luck finding an answer

 

gay...

 

 

i know i just saw that. but now i am asking about why possibly my coolant temps could be higher than normal... normally its around 180 to 190. and now when i am sitting for a couple minutes at idle it jumps up to ~200...

 

By coolant temps you mean the engine coolant? If so its cause you've blocked some of the air flow to the radiator. The more crap you stick in front of the radator the less cool air reaches it making it run hotter. If it were my car I'd try to find another location other then in front of the radator to mount it.
Like maybe behind the fog light on the passenger side with its own small electic fan behind it. Thats how I did the oil cooler in my FireBird and it worked great!

 

mine goes up to 212 if i sit at a stop light for 2-3 minutes

 

everything is correct, Did you remember to put in more coolant? Takes like 4L of coolant, took me 2 days to bleed and get mine full. Fill the overflow spout in front of the supercharger, not the actual coolant tank. Heres how you do it....

Turn engine on, open cap and fill it...air bubbles will come up as the coolant goes to the H/E...once empty, fill again, and repeat process until its full, u will know its full cuz no more air will come up and after the engine has been running, abit of coolant will spill out of the overflow tubes. Temps will go down abit, not alot

 

My temp get up in the 200s also when sitting still.. From what I have heard that is completely normal for the lsj. No air movement=no cooling.

 

ok thank you for the inteligence... LOL. i will be watching it for a few days then filling it with coolant.

any other comments are welcome.

 

Is there room to relocate it elsewhere rather then in front of the radiator?

 

no it is already a tight fit right in front. if i could i would but i cant

 

Lets see a pic of how it looks

 

ok give me a minute.

 

i forgot to take pics of mine with my bumper off, but i still gotta put 2 more bolts in cuz i didnt have enough nuts, so i only have 2 out of 4 bolts holding the H/E to the brackets

 

i dont have a pic with the bumper off but i am uploading some with everything installed

here is the basic view.... dont mind my stock rims for the winter lol

Here is a front side shot

and the front...



sorry for the cell pics. it was faster

so theres the pics!

 

THAT why u got that avatar!
