What would be the best tree(NE USA)that I could tie my disco to and fix my leaking sunroof?...btw any brand of alcoholic bev is fine with me.

 

"What did you do with your Disco II today?"...besides tying it to a tree..really hope you don't sell it,hang in there!

 

Hey man, I'd be pissed off if I had 12 Milwaukees too!

 

That is some nasty *** beer. Nope have disco mike. dude telling me a shop manual will not help me. He thinks i need to call him all i want is someone to say yeah check this spot. But i did temporary fix the water leak till i can adored a new pump and gasket. Apologize for being a dick but tired of the smart *** coments. I see y temp stays around 210-220 is that about a good spot to be at? And what brand of shop manual should i get.

 

I like dark beer not deer **** lol :-) . I put some stop leak stuff in to hold me over till i can aford a new pump and stuff.

 

My disco would idle at 216 in traffic with ac on.I added a bottle of water wetter that I got from Advance Auto and now it tops out at 206.Some might say that is ok some will say its too hot.As for a manual you need to download the RAVE manual.Its free somewhere on here.Cheers

 

Sitting at sonic for about 10-15 minutes temp stayed at 221. Is that to hot or is that good? And also i havent put antifrezze in it yet wanted to make sure i woundnt be wasting my money on it. But so for no leak.

 

That's fine.Just keep an eye on it.If no leaks,you can later purchase a 180 degree thermostat to bring the temps even lower.

 

The oem stat starts to open at 180 and gets fully open at 205. So if you are running above that, on the highway, the stat is fully open, and the radiator can't keep up with it. You would find better operation in the 190's. A new 180 stat is a good first step. Testing radiator is another. When warm up, and truck off, check fins for temp top to bottom. If bottom is 10F or more colder, then radiator is partially blocked. The aluminum and plastic radiator is too wimpy for rod out by a shop. $150 and up for a new one.

If you are running cooler on the highway, and a lot hotter at Sonic, check you electric condenser fan. It should come on a 212F. If not running there is a fuse and relay in the underhood fuse box. If the blades don't turn free it may have siezed and blown the fuse.

Also check the viscous fan clutch, when warmed up give the fan a spin, it should coast to a stop in less than 1 revolution. If it freewheels the fluid inside is gone and you need a nerw clutch for cooling at idle.

As for a manual, the standard is the RAVE, the factory set of shop, owner, electrical, overhaul, and body shop manuals. Free download below. Don't go print it, the shop manual is over 1500 pages alone.

Is there an exact question that you feel you need a better answer on?

 

208 going down the road.
