I have a thermostat, and cable/fan. That is it. My engine bay pump is hooked up to open air and it never turns on........
I have searched google, type IV secrets revealed and this forum as well as others. I can't find the pictures I need or info I need on when/how the air pump in the bay is activated. I'm trying to not blow up my good condition 1800 fuelie, and I get the feeling with the hot muggy weather coming back here a working cooling systme is probably A1 before I start driving it semi regularly. Does anyone have any photos? Tips/hints? From what I was told the pump just evacuates the engine bay air below the tin so it is not recycled back through by the cooling fan and back over the heads? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I suck at air cooled cars. |

Are you talking about the motor/squirrel cage fan in the eng. compatment? If so, that is part of the heater system. Later models had a smog pump....is that what you see?????

Later models had a smog pump....is that what you see????? Ahh ok, it mounts on the side opposite hell hole, by the chassis ground point there on a curved bracket? I have a 75 1.8l california car. Any EGR/cat has been removed by the previous owner. I am pretty much eliminating the heat from my 914. Warm weather/sunny day only car. Or bundle up. More weight, complexity etc. I do not want to deal with it or really need it. I'm missing a bunch of pieces already, and I apparently have 1.7l headers with no heat exchangers. But that is it for the cooling system? I was reading on another forum that hinted at more and in the future a section of type IV secrets revealed dedicated to the cooling system. If that is it, I will actually drive it. I'm just fearful of blowing this thing up since I can't waltz down to a pick and pull for a Type IV motor, heads etc. |
