Following up in case anyone searches.
The blue trailer wire went all the way to the large connector on the firewall and stopped there. There wasn’t a matching pin on the interior plug.
Looks like it didn’t have a trailer towing package even though all the wires were lead under the van for a 7...
It should be a rectangular 6 pin. Only four are used.
The plug I pictured inside has continuity with the plug by the power distribution box. Orange is 12v switched, yellow is 12v constant, blue and grey-red just seem to just pass through.
I found this description of the trailer towing wiring...
I can’t find the connector to install the trailer brake controller on my van. From what I can tell it had the trailer package installed at the factory. The blue wire from the 7 pin goes forward along the frame rail with all the other wires (trough factory connectors).
All I can find under the...
We need a deals thread, figured this would be a good place to start.
Rock Auto has a bunch of wholesaler closeouts on parts. I just got gaskets for the whole engine for around $60. The water outlet and inlet gaskets were 13 cents each...
I have the other engine already but it has low compression. Need to do a leak down test on it.
The heads that came off the engine with the cracked cylinder are good so I'm hoping I can put them on the engine with bad compression.
Trying to avoid a full rebuild.
I took this engine out of my van to swap in another. The replacement has bad compression so I started checking out the original to see if the coolant problem could be fixed. Looks like that's not going to happen. Hopefully I can put the heads off this engine onto the other to fix the compression...
What's with this 'again' business? This is the first time you've posted in this thread. Got any pictures of what you're talking about or a link to another thread?
That's kinda what I was thinking. I have some small brass freeze plugs that might fit too.
I figured it would 'work' to leave it out but they took the time to put it in at the factory so it must contribute something.
I'm prepping a replacement engine to go into my van and figured a new thermostat would be a good idea.
The retainer holding the check ball in disintegrated while cleaning it up. Any ideas for a replacement retainer? I was thinking an oring but I'm worried about it getting sucked into the...
That's about what I was thinking. What would a fair price on a used motor be? I know there are lots of variables. The last two I saw on CL were $1200 and $1500 but I can't remember the mileages.
