No issues with bent rocker studs after using this? Several of the reviews of the product mention that it bent the studs.

Love the coupe, just interested in the rpm range after the diff ratio upgraded? Whats your open road rpm like in top gear is yours 4 speed still? I have a XB coupe with the 4 speed and factory borg warner diff and was looking at fitting a Ef/ El ute/wagon rear end with the disc brakes. Many Thanks

How are your temps holding up? I'm buying a similar 4 core rad for my LTD.

@crossthreadblues651 3 жыл бұрын

Great, on hot days or during long idle times the temp sits on 92 degrees, flick the thermo fan and goes down in about 30secs. Normal cruising with occasional blasts (6500rpm), sits on 86degrees. I found that the cooling system has more pressure. Don’t know if this is good or bad. Could put more pressure on head gaskets.

Did my FG tonight, NYE yeah I know I don't have a life anyway couple of things I found, firstly if you leave the overflow lid on when taking off your pet cock it only drains slowly and won't make too much of a mess and you can regulate the flow by slowly loosening the overflow lid to stop the water draining too fast. Well it might help. Secondly tried several different methods to clean the overflow bottle, isopropyl alcohol just happened to have 5 litres sitting around because of covid, then dishwasher powder and hot water and finally CLR. They all cleaned to some degree but I found CLR was the best, any advise on cleaning these tanks out would be good not that I should need to do it for another 8 years. Anyway great video mate, thanks for the help.

@crossthreadblues651 4 жыл бұрын

I just dissolve a dish washing table with hot water and clean with a scrubbing bush from the Reject shop, bends in most of the crevices. CLR should do the trick.

@TankedMush 3 жыл бұрын

If the plastic is all good, it's just as easy to unbolt the sucker and give it a good gerny blast. If there's alot of old build up hot soapy water and one this dish brushes that are flexible works wonders. Did this on and old Nissan patrol. The old overflow had completely caved in(full replacement of course) , full of leaves and gunk. 5 flushes later and it finnaly started looking normal.

Nice coupe man! I still have the m75 bw diff. I wouldn't mind upgrading like you have. Did you have to cut the diff down? I thought most newer car had wider track diffs.

@crossthreadblues651 4 жыл бұрын

No, only 3m wider from memory. Would love a 9 inch but can’t justify the money yet. I’m surprised how well this combo works, bolted straight in.

Thats great news! I wouldn't mind finding a diff assembly with lsd and disc brakes but thats probably going to be difficult. I used the 75 series bw in my escort, but has moser billet axels with ebay copy truetrac lsd. It hooks up very no dramas. My current m75 in my xb looks very sad.

Random question, when the car is at temp, do you see a very small amount of bubbles in the overflow bottle? Nothing major like what you'd expect from a bad gasket but worried it might be the start of one.

@crossthreadblues651 4 жыл бұрын

Cant say I do, no bubbles. May be air trapped in the upper radiator hose. Try and squeeze the hose when at operating temp.

Hey buddy great video, you don't need to worry about your heater as it is running all the time regardless of whether hot or cold is selected inside not like the older cars and the BA and BF are the same as the FG with the bleed hose to the filler tank.

@funngamez4468 4 жыл бұрын

Nice video mate, cheers. I did this yesterday before watching the vid and pretty much did the same. Just wondering though, I just got this car and all previous cars I did this on had a noticeable 'hiss' when opening the overflow bottle cap when the car was warm and the system was pressurised. I took the FG for a 40 min warm up lap and opened the cap for a top up and there was no pressurisation at all and no sound when opening it up. Is that what you have experienced as well? Can't see any leaks etc.

@crossthreadblues651 4 жыл бұрын

I have pressure. If it's not leaking and not running hot, all good.
