I am an ase master tech and have delt with this situation many of times. every engine's cooling system is different. A removed thermostat can make a car over heat due to the coolant traveling through the radiator to quickly. but on the other hand some engines are designed with a inferior style water pump and can not pump the coolant through fast enough to over heat even when the thermostat is removed. these vehicles would not even reach operating temperature. In some cases they would not even reach closed loop operation. besides the main purpose for a thermostat is to create a restriction so coolant stays in the block longer to get the motor to operating temperature as fast as possible. This is to reach closed loop quicker to get better emissions and to get heat quicker to the interior when needed.

My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe. For now................ |
LOL^^^
I found one of his escape attempts on video: |
OK back on topic. Phil, I figured out the problem with yours and all the other china chargers that fail. Heres a video of the turbo cut in half so you can see whats going on inside as its doing its thing:

My comments were based on years of working with bearings and multiple failures. I am a vibration analyst and this is part of my everyday job. My comments apply to the machinery I work with everyday and as I mentioned I never claimed to be an expert on turbocharger lubrication. So as far as I'm concerned I said nothing wrong, what I said apparently does not apply to turbo's but believe me in my line of work overlubrication is a problem.

eh, don't worry about it.
We've already teabagged the fuck out of this thread, and gotten nowhere. |

It did on my 944. Took out the T-stat, and the sonbitch would run hot. The coolant was passing through the radiator too quick for the heat to be extracted before the coolant went back into the motor. I put the T-stat back in, and the car ran under normal operating temps. |
after reading this thread I have come to learn a few things.
1st cats are funny little critters 2nd old men on escalators are endlessly entertaing, but a few points shy of little black kids being scared into a heart attack. 3rd not all newbes are retards. . . just the ones in this thread. if half of the goo in their skulls wasn't shit they might realize that coolant temperature is not directly indicative of engine temperature. it is exactly what it is called coolant temperature. want proof? remove your themostat and install a cylinder head temp guage, or better yet remove your coolant completely and drive your car. then report back to us what your coolant temperature guage was reading just before you were left stranded on the side of the road. I hope they honor the warranty for you and that it was something stupid like manufacturing debris in an oil galley or something of that nature. |
