Not familiar with the setup to be honest ,but cant you fit the new motor to the orignal housing ? thus gaining the second fan drive. Or better still get a fan from the scrappers (any fan) and wire/fit to the original housing. And to check the new fan/setup runs just short the stat that handles the switching. Stephen

Check the binding rear brake calipers (common problem) which after a warmup period will release, only to go "sticky" again once the H/B,s used. Stephen -

chain tensioner screw test Picture and Video inside
VeeRsix replied to Udi Siag's topic in Engine Maintenance and Problems
Since the method of tensioning is via hydraulic pressure the length of adjustment as shown in your picture should be ignored, use the tensioner which show the least piston scoring (hence less chance of failure). After re-fitting start up at idle only and ensure chain gear is without noise ,a short chain noise may be heard untill oil pressure is exerted to the rear of the tensioner. Stephen -
Its a carbon filtered cannister which i beleive is used to sample air quality ,and is switched in when sampling by the ecu is required. Stephen

Engine cranking help please!!!
VeeRsix replied to Daverse's topic in Engine Maintenance and Problems
!!!! sounds like a seized motor m8 you should definately be able to rotate it CW or CCW and youd feel it park on the head thru your rachet/torque wrench. Wip the head off and inspect the bores m8. Stephen -
What ever you use make sure the coating is as thin as possible ie no primer and just enough paint to cosmeticly give the effect you want, most finishes are thermally insulative and hence effect the engines heat dissapation thats the reason there not painted in pretty colours from the factory.

Can you replace big ends without removing engine
VeeRsix replied to cookstar's topic in Engine Maintenance and Problems
Chances are both the big ends and mains have had the same usage, so it becomes false economy to do just the B/Es as you,ll more than likeley need to replace them very soon anyway and there just as easy to do, just slacken all the end caps first this will allow you to slide in/out the new/old shell easily, use plenty of clean oil when fitting.

Full Brake System Bleed how to???
VeeRsix replied to Timah89's topic in Wheels, Brakes, Suspension and Steering
Bleed the pump manually M8 You,ll still have the ABS light untill you take it for a spin and all the sensors register then it,ll extinguish. Good Luck stephen -
