I did
notice that people on the forum always talked about the 15psi water pressure
cap but I never stood still with that remark. So one day when I saw this remark
again I stood up and went to the garage to have a look at the pressure cap and
I couldn’t believe my eyes; mine was only a 7psi cap. I guess I took this cap
from the old plastic bottle system without knowing there was a difference with
the newer system.
So
I ordered a new 15psi cap and guess what? Temperature dropped with a full block
on the meter, also water level in the expansion vase stays at a higher level
now.
Never too
old to learn I guess…
Another
problem I had is when it was raining and the car had been standing still for a
while it wouldn’t run on all cylinders. Checked everything but I couldn’t find
anything wrong but when I sprayed some WD40 all over the place the problem was
gone ore became less.
In the end
I bought a new distributor cap and rotor because I thought this was the cause
as this part has 30 years of age.
Problems
seemed to be solved after that but I wasn’t convinced so I’ve ordered a
complete new distributor with coil and leads, to be continued...
