Re: [AFMUG] OT: S10 Chevy heating issue

One additional thought.. I've had at least one rig where a bad/incorrect radiator cap would cause overheating as the radiator cap in many systems doubles as the pressure regulator for the system, and apparently system pressure matters for some engines. Not sure if this applies in your case. On

Re: [AFMUG] OT: S10 Chevy heating issue

If you don’t have exhaust gasses in the radiator, it is probably not a head gasket. If you do, then follow up with a compression test. If both tests fail, it is probably a gasket. Sounds to me more like a recalcitrant thermostat. From: Cameron Crum Sent: Monday, September 18, 2017 9:13

If it's ping-watching another router as I understand it, first step is to try removing that to see if it fixes it. Some Mikrotiks of RB450/RB493 models had bad capacitors (Su'scon brown/green) and the routers would start crashing/freezing up after a few years. I've taken them out of service,

Re: [AFMUG] OT: S10 Chevy heating issue

I wouldn't run without a t-stat. On a lot of cars you need the restriction to give the radiator time to do its job. Sounds to me like if it was smoking (from exhaust?) when heating, you might have a cracked head gasket. It looks like you've replaced everything else. On Mon, Sep 18, 2017 at 9:04

Has anybody found differences in the Ethernet equipment used and errors? We have a site with a 4kw FM about 50' away from our gear. An FSK Cluster will not run at 100mb, only 10mb. A powerbridge at the same level sometimes negotiates down to 10mb, but mostly stays at 100mb. An EPMP radio

Re: [AFMUG] FM radio colocation interference?

Sometimes even a foot or two of cable length makes a difference. At FM frequencies the wavelength is around 3 meters, so a length change of 1.5m may change a cable from worst case to best case. Plus the positioning and routing of a cable can make lots of difference. It also wouldn't surprise

I’ve seen where cheap water pumps cavitate at slow speeds like idle. I’ve also seen new water pumps that didn’t turn the inside impellor and just spin on the outer pulley because the inside impellor broke off. It’s also possible your new thermostat is simply sticking and isn’t opening up

Re: [AFMUG] OT: S10 Chevy heating issue

Yup. On the Cavalier it wasn't the radiator cap but the coolant reservoir cap that regulated pressure. I think it kept the coolant at 15 psi. Higher pressure means higher boiling point, which means the fluid can transport more heat. -- Original Message -- From: "Forrest Christian
