After buying a heap that blew up within hours (my fault for being such a dumbass!) my car has sat in my mates garage for 3 months while we both had flu and other things to contend with........everything we could do wrong we did!......wrong clutch cables were ordered, wrong parts came and got sent back..........the weather got cold..................
Anyhow, the new engine is in, we've got it running as well as I think it will ever run......everything sorted.
Took it for a little run tonight......called at the garage for some fuel, perc fan came on for a bit, then went off........sweet. I thought, as it never worked before.........
Got back to the garage, perc fan came on...................................and stayed on.......and on.....about 6 minutes....then slowed down noticably...then stopped...and blew its fuse just as it stopped.
Has anybody got any ideas where I should be directing my attention here?..........the sensor above the turbo maybe?..........How long do these things reckon to run after you've switched the engine off...........I can only think sensor.......but I need help with this one please.
Thanks in advance.
If one more thing goes wrong its zippo time!!!!!!!!:mad:
