Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Here is the controler I used on my jeep to control the fan at all times. I really like it as it gives you adjustable temp control for the fan, compressor turn on for the fan, and run after ignition shuf off to cool the raditor and engine, and has only one wire to the engine and thats to the compressor. Very simple and very compact and very easy to install.. Only 79.95 plus shiping... Brian is an engineer and designed and builds these.. They will handle any fan you may wish to use even the heavy amp draw mark VIII fan many of us jeep owners install to cool the engines.

I was able to spend about 6 hours on the hood today. I wiped it then guide coated it and used air tools to knock off the crust. Then I guide coated and blocked with 80. The top is done with 80. I still have to do the sides. Then i will guide coat and block with 120. If all is good I will buzz over with 180 and apply the slick sand. |

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
You should make alittle movie of when you turn the key for the first time. Even if it does'nt start the first time. Be sure and get a close up of your face. Maybe a big fat chew in and a pinner hanging out.

I filled the radiator with almost 4 gallons of 50/50 with my vac pump. I sucked the system down to make sure it would hold a vac. http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/t...2-02-03005.jpg http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/t...2-02-03007.jpg http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/t...2-02-03008.jpg Well, it is alive. Start up was pretty good. First the lines on the tranny were loose. Then the tranny cooler lines on the radiator leaked. After several times tightening down I thought something was wrong. My gut was right. After removeing the lines we discovered there weren't any flares in the radiator. I called Summitt and they said it's 1/4" NPT. Shannon and I spent 3-4 hours looking for a fitting. No luck so I just ran a bypass hose for now. http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/t...2-02-04001.jpg Line fittings are very confussing to me. It's a 5/16" OD line with inverted flare to 1/4" NPT. Correct like this one. http://www.valleyhydraulic.com/store...g/202small.jpg Here is a video of it running. I still have some tuning to do. |

I'm such a tard sometimes. When I fired it and it ran for a while I noticed the cooling fan didn't come on. I jumped it and later found that there wasn't any power coming from the fuse block to the relay on the radiator support. I wish I would have paid attention before, because the fuse panel has a fan relay built into it. In the schematic the right 2 terminals are for the for the fan relay. The green is the ground. At this point I'm going to ground the relay in the cab and just use the relay out front. Since it can move under it's own power, I pulled it outside and gave it the first official bath. Of coarse I took some pics as well. |
