Mrs Crac: Sam, the house is too hot, can you turn down the thermostat? **Sam drills holes in walls** Sam: How's that?
@moonbeam361
4 жыл бұрын
That's a well known way to revive a thermostat. Guess you're a millenial and you don't know how things were done in the old days. Of course, this is a temporary fix. He should assess the rest of the car and decide whether to keep or junk it, and if its to be kept then replace the thermostat along with whatever else is needed. And evaluating the car will require driving for a week or two or maybe longer, so the drilled holes keep the engine safe in this time - notice no overheating after holes were drilled - recognise the importance of that observation.

I am now a subscriber and like all you videos even though I am Down Under and cars and opportunities are are more expensive. Until recently we used to build cars down under until our Gov neutered us to be more dependent on foreign supplies by closing it all down. Some of the Aussie made and designed cars sold in the USA were the 2004-06 Pontiac GTO, 2008-09 G8 (and related Chevrolet Caprice PPV), and 2014-17 Chevrolet SS! Aussies like to make big V8 muscle cars that brake and handle very well. Cheers.

Man I love that engine too so damn smooth and makes those boat of cars scoot. To bad they had their issues too, blew the head gasket in my 99 I used as a road trip car and over heated. Put it this way I dumped the car I’m not messing around with an overheated engine nor was I going to repair it or pay someone to start.

Thanks for showing us the diagnostic twists and turns. Liked your can-do attitude in getting to the bottom of the problem. There are a lot of unfair comments posted here that reflect the poster’s inattention and bias. Sam wasn’t trying to do a rebuild that some seemed to expect. They totally missed Sam’s intention - which was to figure out what was the problem and make economic decisions to get it going and drive it as a serviceable beast of burden until it dies. For example - drilling through the thermostat wasn’t a fix, it was done as diagnosis. Didn’t you hear what he said? In the end he found a replacement for between 60-70. In the end I think he did a pretty good job of it and we got to see the trials and tribulations of taking on the challenge and even learnt a thing or two along the way. Thanks Sam. I’ve subscribed.

Just luck of the draw.The thermostat being stuck is what blew the head gasket in the first place. But with the amount of valve train noise due to it over heating that engine is not goin to last long anyway.

Then, eventually the thermostat froze up, it would get really hot, then I would stop driving it, cool it off, add water ,repeat. Someone suggested I just remove the thermostat, which I did. The engine thrived on it. Think you only use the stop- leak once or twice, after that it really gums up the works. If you remove the thermostat, the check engine light will come on. So I needed to replace it to get a smog, that's when my problems began again!
