Gary Lewis Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Getting the vacuum helped tremendously. I set the beet lean idle. I really think the AFR gauge is key and I think this engine wants more gas! Looking forward to finding out! Not sure I understand. "Getting the vacuum"? "beet lean idle"?

This has arrived while I was away. 3 row aluminum jobby. It is an ebay purchase as no one had any stock. I called a few places and they all sounded like they were waiting for shipments from China. Hoping to put it in tomorrow after work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does Espy have a cooling problem? 🧐 Or is it 'just for pretty'? Do the transmission cooler bungs fit the factory adapters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gsmblue Posted April 8, 2022 Author Share Posted April 8, 2022 Nice! I have a 3 row aluminum in my truck and a 4 row aluminum in my Bronco. Just for pretty really. I think I need to check the thermostat rating as the engine never get warm on the gauge. I checked the gauge and that pins when grounded. The sensor is giving some info to the gauge as it is moving it a little, but only just above the “C” for cold. Not sure if it could be a bad sender.

It could be. These wax pellet senders seem to fail slowly. I had to replace mine not too long ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
