Don't bother taking them off. That's not your problem. They do work and they work well.

I'm guessing your heater flapper bellows are not working properly. You may want to remove that and put it in boiling water to see how it responds. Also, make sure the cable is hooked up properly to the armature on the flappers.

There in the open position. Thermostat is bad.

Did you clean your on engine oil cooler?

While you really can't get it from the top, I use brake cleaner and spray up from the bottom. I then use compressed air to blow anything out of the fins, realizing that the foreign material is blown back on the cylinders.

Might be worth a try.

I'll give that a try.

Put a catch basin on the floor under the cooler. It WILL be messy!

The plastic flaps or deflectors are to create a low pressure area under the engine which allows the engine cooling to work better, assuming all the engine tin is in place and the thermostat/flaps are working properly.

Got the deflector flaps from Garold Shaffer. I don't know if he has more.


(IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) Not new, just cleaned up.

yep, just used some simple green, let soak for 10 mins. then used a hand cleaning brush to scrub the dirt build up. they look good for used.
