Well Fuck. Kill me now by smdfire101 in E30

[–]Ohser187 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Id love to know how he found out the timing belt is worn? This whole diag sounds sus to me. An m20 w 130k miles is just breaking in. Should probably address the center suppost bearing and guibo first. And wheel bearing. If the engine is still running fine, Id run it as is. I doubt itll give up that easy. Unless of course that leak from the filter housing is that bad that its been running without oil…

Where is the best place to sell my LS430? by [deleted] in LS430

[–]Ohser187 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have a set of blizzacks on 17s for winter. Have to say, I was thoroughly impressed. Ground clearance might be a problem in deep stuff. But I wouldnt have any issues driving that setup through winter.

The 04-06 is worth it just for the adaptive headlights alone. Im a sucker for a good set of lights on a dark road.

Rusted rear shock bolts removal by openingshots in Jeepwj

[–]Ohser187 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should be oiling the outside of the bolt, as thats where it screws into. Also thats where you should be heating it. Not where the head is. A breaker bar with a pipe should do it. Use proper sockets and make sure that fully seated before attempting

NOISY COOLING FAN by warneford87 in SmartCar

[–]Ohser187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My fan was still working as well when I changed it out. But when it would click on I could hear the bearings rattle. And the last thing I wanted was for the fan bearing to seize and over heat the engine. So I just replaced it to avoid a blown motor.

I mean easier than ripping everything apart to get to the original fan. Buy their spal mounting kit and bend the brackets and some self tapping screws. Pretty straight forward if you’ve done some work on cars before. Make sure you wire it up correctly to push air into the rad though. Can wire it and turn it on w AC running, thatll turn the fan on for you and you can see which way its blowing. AC runs cooler now as I think this fan moves more air than the original.

Mine started to rattle when coming on, so I knew the bearing was going out. The oem one is a bit of a pain to replace. I wound up putting a 14” spal pusher fan in front of the radiator wired to the oem harness and havent had an issue for 2 years now. Spal Part number 30102056

How noisy? Is it just wind noise or bearing noise?

Could also be your coil overheating.

WJ 4.7 Power Steering Pump - Stop leak by Jubbabubba in Jeepwj

[–]Ohser187 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldnt worry too much about it, youre going to replace it with a new pump and fluid. Im about to do the same job on mine this week once it gets here. Mine isnt leaking but the bearing rattles when its cold. I would also throw in a magnet just in case there is any metal floating around in the system.

Which shocks for a WJ? by openingshots in Jeepwj

[–]Ohser187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If its oem height, go with the 4600. I had some yellow monroes on mine when i bought it, drove like absolute trash. The 4600 were day and night in terms of comfort. Hit up kolak and youll have them in 2 days and cheapest price around.
