ok i have tried everything i have read about from searching forthis but i cant tell if my pump is working or not no matter how much i put in it i cant see it in the neck and i tried to listen to it but couldnt hear anything and the only reason i think it might be working is b/c when im parked my coolant temp goes from 182 to 194+ or so and the reasson i think my pump still works is because if i raise the RPMs to about 3k and hold it there the temps drop back down to 184ish so this means my pump is working right? im fixing to get the OTTP h/e

 

Which pump are you talking about? The water pump (on the engine) or the intercooler pump? Those temps on your DIC are telling us your regular water pump is working (you'd know in a hurry if it wasn't) but the intercooler system is completely separate.

 

o i thought it was readding the coolant not the water pump dang it i guess i need to go fill up my tell there is water showing the neck of the coolant

 

yea im confused, you talking IC system pump or engine coolant pump?

 

i talking about IC pump

 

if you crawl under the car with the car running (unless you have it enabled on ACC through HPT) then you can place your hand on it and feel it running.

ill try that tomorrow when i go to school thanks hatrickstu!

 

If your IAT2 is 190 then goes down when you give it some gas, that's normal. Fresh (cool) air is being pulled into the engine, so the temp should go down.

The most failsafe way to determine is to stick a clean drinking straw into the fill neck while the engine's running and see if it gets tossed around. Personally I don't know the difference between a working and dead pump by touch, which is why I always favor sticking something in the stream and seeing what happens.

 

intake temps should never be 190 if the pump is working. thats nuts

 

Agreed. I think I only got mine up that high when I was idling in the drivethrough for like 15 minutes. Maybe he was actually talking about coolant temp and not IAT2? That would explain the high numbers.

Craig, are you coming to Kileen this weekend? I'll check your pump for ya.

 

thats actually a very good point. dont confuse your coolant with your iat's

 

i dont have hp or an intorceptor so i was talking about the coolant temp from the DIC i will be getting dual intoceptors at the end of april and how much coolant can yall see when yall look down the neck b/c none is showing when i look down in it

 

lol thats your engine coolant temp. completely unrelated. still try what i said earlier

 

ill try it out in the morning and if that doesnt work ill try out the straw thing out
