nfelge Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 went to a Honda meet with my friend last Saturday, and one of the guys said he owns an 83 Starion. His names Daniel (SovietSuperSoldier), and he's from Tucson. He said he never drives it, poor car . You Tucson guys know him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonnieJ Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 So what are you guys seeing for operating temps? Whats normal temps for this heat? Ive been 190-200 now thats its been hotter. Threw in a new radiator and ordered some puller fans. Right now im only running one pusher in front on the condensor and one puller on the radiator. Switching it up to 2 pullers as soon as they come in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
averse Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 Heya Ronnie, missed your post until now, lol. I use the factory gauge, so no idea on numbers. I've had quite a history of trying to managed temps on my car. I've changed my stock radiator to a *DM, burned through several factory main/secondary fans until I purchased a pair of chinese ebay ones that have held up great for the last year, wired thermosensors together to make both fans come on at lower temp, installed 165 water thermostat, etc... Right now I usually get it between halfway and to pointing to the top of the water guage icon (about 3/4 up?) on the stock gauge. And true to form, one of the wires I used to conenct the primary thermosensor to the wiring harness has a kink it in and i have lost power to fans twice this week, only blistering my hand once trying to pull on the wire to get the kink out and restore power to the fans, lol. I need to replace that wire when I find time. BTW, things slowing down enough for us to have a get together soon? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfelge Posted September 6, 2012 Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 Finally got my Quest running! I need to fix a couple more little things (P/S box), but I should be good to meet pretty soon. I'm out of town 21-23 September, maybe we can do something the last week of September (29 Saturday)? And by the way Sam, that radio you gave me works, but it only picks up Mariachi, hahaa.
