20v cooling issues

[trdee]

The blacktop and silvertop do interchange, but they are different.

The thermostat sizes are different, and the covers are too,
so the thermostat over must match the housing.

Also no TRD thermostat listed for the silvertop, only the blacktop.

Fucking excellent. Thank you good sir +rep

Edit; the silvertop uses the same thermostat as a 16v, so you can look up a TRD thermostat for an AE82/92/AW11 for them. The blacktop thermostat is supposedly same as a 3SGE unit

I did an oil chage last night using 10/60 and bugger all difference...gauge sender is kaput me thinks?

Maybe you have some extremely low resistance bearings?

Sounds like the gauge is crap. What brand is it?

There is a Tridon high-flow available that is compatible with the silvertop. Although I really don't see the point in either. The blacktop thermostat is huge and I doubt that even the normal silvertop one would cause any worthwhile restriction. In my experience all 4age engines run fairly cool.

The blacktop manual is available on line in english, I suggest seeing what it says about oil pressure:

Kaput sensor from a brand new gauge Justen? Seems unlikely, although you did buy a sh1te brand

A cluster full of Stewart Warner or bust on this thing dude, it's worth it.

i did briefly attempt to run the stock pressure sender wiring off it as well for the dash light...dash light worked but not the gauge as the voltage signal was obviously effected....i can't see this having munted the pressure sender though?

If you hook up a light to a sender that is meant to run a gauge you can and usually do damage the sensor,
as they are not meant to handle even the small amount of current that a bulb has.
