So I got my car back from the shop Sat
![]() any way let the fiberglass dry good and it did, started it up, everything seemed good, let it heat up filled the coolant everything looked good, fiberglass patch held good. drove it around for a wile, temp guage warmed up as normal and stayed normal. got home and it was steaming again, fiberglass was holding but not 100% and was not (very little) overfloing into the side tank. and noticed the fans were not going on, tested it by letting the car idel for a wile then little reving, no fans at all, nothing. ( checked the relay and looks fine but I dont know much about telling a good one from a bad one) what could be the cause of this, I did some searching and it could be the thumostat, but I dont undestand how my fans wont turn on. any tips or knolage as to the cause, I'm gana try a few things tomarrow and hopefully you guys give me so good advise, but its probably gana go to the shop for a tune up and to see whats rong. So I'm in the van again ![]() oh and now just today 3 tail light bulbs went out ![]() some pics I took SAT when i got it back: ![]() ![]() ![]() Yeah my rear lisence place body peace is not clear coated, did not have it done since I'm making a new custom one. ![]() -------------------- ![]() |

My plan is to just get the new radiator in, and see how it runs, I dont have any real evidence to blame other parts at the moment, it makes sense that the old radiator cracked leaked coolant and the thing overheated, because it runs as it should when filled sept that some leaks out the side of the patch. as far as the fans go, I dont think I'm getting it warm enough, i'm too chicken to really get it to overheat.
