    Water loss

    ln this thread l see no reason to dive into empty based detail as it is simply a vague discription. The next update provides no more substance. No more input on anything relevant has been updated. So why continue your rant that seems speculative on empty thread detail. If you want to create a...

    All speculation regarding a diagnoses. It was just a suggestion with no obligation.

    lt would assist with the functioning of the cooling system fault without lowering the boiling temp buy method of dilution. As it was just a suggestion also.

    No mention of km's! So speculative suggestion is a empty diagnoses, untill professionally diagnosed etc. Best not read into a unknown, just to have a chat!

    Water loss

    So do you suggest adding glycol mix will create damage compared to adding water considering the cooling system failure. You do stress a particular disliking to its mix used in this engine. So suddenly you addapt my suggestion to attend to the thread lead itself. The general cooling system...

    Water loss

    You do seem to read/dissect things the way you choise to manipulate it. Not "the cause" a possible contribution to a overheating scenario within a cooling system failure as a result of lowering a boiling point to below a possible maufacturers specification as dilution of a mixture can do so...

    Water loss

    I have no disputes regarding a possible cooling system failure as l mentioned to "ORTHAS". Adding water has not fixed it, it has reduced the possible boiling temp characteristics of what mix was provided buy the repairer. The repairer did not add plain water for a reason. So why highlight...

    2007 Holden Commodore SS-V Manual

    If you are over what car you have already created then you could answer your own question regarding modle upgrade. Or you could keep your current shell and bolt in a custom engine and drivetrain to suit, or modify what you have to suit however many 1000 hp you desire. Its more a matter of...

    As you have stated the addition of "water" only has not corrected the cooling sytem failure, although present with what coolant/water mix was provided, best take it to a cooling specialist like Natrad for a diagnosis eg: to pressure test etc if you are incapable of diagnosing what is in front of...

    Water loss

    Water will Transfer heat better than a combination of glycol and water up to its failing point. Water will freeze at 0c and boil at 100c, a mixture reduces water vapourization compared to without because a glycol based mixture will not boil and therefore not steam. A plain water application if...

    Water loss

    As advised it reduces the boiling temp. The boilig effects reduce cooling efficiently creating a overheated invironment. This isnt a chemistry club immortality. It just doesn't sink in does it.

    lm not the moderater of the forum trying to make his statis justifiably necessary. Grow up!

    mmmmm the same thought with water boiling at 100c

    Water loss

    Seems your trying to create a superiority issue rather than provided a General Discusion Forum. The application of pure water does lower the boiling temp. This is some fact. Does water conduct heat better than water glycol mix. Water will transfer heat better than a combination of glycol...

    Water loss

    Water boils earlier and vaporises, that will lead to cooling issues such as hot air pockets that can contribute to engine heat sink resulting in damage. It is to my understanding including opinion with referance to personal experience and manufacturers specification that coolant is to be within...

    Which Sump Gasket?

    l couldn't guarantee you no issue would occur a some stage. You could call the manufacturer of the product, explain the application.

    Vt 5.0 wagon exhaust thoughts

    ln my experience it was best changing the system as a cat/muff/tail section rather than revisit. Bolts ups are good but not all brands interchange, some 4 bolt flages, some 3 or have slip sleeving requiring clamps or could be welded for eg. I had a xforce twin out, changed to a pacemaker of the...

    l dont know what plannet your from but hear on earth if you add water to glycole you dilute what you add to. As water boils before a water/glycole mix depending on %rate as its a varialbe number, the engine heats to the point water boils and vaporises creating a overheating scenario at a earlier...

    Best method of programming new keys...

    No issues to report also. I did hear it can log a security tamper type code if scanned. Obviously someone that is ortherised using a genuine keypad was my concern, if just a joe blo doing the job maybee a concern.

    Once determind if any dtc's are contributing to the posters concerns/unknowns regarding the mechanics need to re address the service, it may be for example, internal requiring further assessment . For anyone to speculate on a cause without first extracting dtc's/faultfinding could only assume...

    SS VE Ute - Broken

    Firstly no recomendations. The list is quite detailed and needs a qualified trade to attend to the issue. Whoever does the work you would expext a gaurantee. At least you would receive the Holden warranty if you choose that path. A qualified engine builder would be my choice other than Holden...

    For the purpose of reconditioning 2 rear driveshaft l called Hardy Spicer. I was advised the universals needed to be pressed. To address any vibration issues ballancing is required. l did end up purchasing genuine Holden rear driveshafts at $740 each. The driveshaft needs to be fitted correctly...

    As you havent specified the transmission fitted to your car, some resurch has advised a 6L80 or similar is a fitment for that model. Within the computer, dtc's are a directory used to assist with functional communications and faultfinding. This is a list provided by The Transmission Rebuilders...

    The rear drive shafts meaning diff to wheels. Driveshafts and tailshafts need ballancing.

    Wh Caprice draining issues. (Anyone fixed Holden assist?)

    Are you certain the alternator is charging the battery. I had a power draining scenario that was actually the alternater only charging at idle.

    If this is the rear drive shaft l did hear it needs to be ballanced. The trunion and trunion flange that the L/R rear wheel and drivshaft bolts to has a bearing that can need replacment.
