recently my car radiator not spinning when temp raise. but the prob is, the fan is working after tested bypass the wiring and staright from battery and it spinning. any idea what happened here? some said sensor, some said fius. anyone can show me how this two look like and how much it cost?
*
if look at the back of the radiator, its at the bottom right i think
look for a wire going the bottom of the radiator
pull it out and check if its 1 or 2 pins
there are two types
get the japan one
its a bit hard to find but more reliable
less than rm30
the malaysian one is 10-15bucks
but not that good
its easily a DIY job all you need is an open end spanner that fits the sensor

*
its maybe a 10minute job at the most
advised to do it in the morning once the engine has cooled down totally
open the radiator cap to check that pressure is zero
THEN CLOSE THE CAP BACK FULLY as this will minimize fluid loss
know where the sensor is
pull out the wires when leaning over the top
it uses a plastic socket thinggy
get under the car and locate the sensor
get the spanner onto it and crack it lose
have the new sensor ready and make sure the gasket is on and the threads are clean
once the old sensor on the radiator is hand lose, it will start to drip a bit
remove the spanner and start to unscrew it...make sure you are holding it in place so that it doesnt fall off once the last thread is past
once its totally unscrewed, quickly remove it and stop the hole with your thumb
get the new sensor into place with your other hand and swap it into place from your thumb and screw it in
you will maybe lose 50ml of fluid
make sure you dont force the threads to avoid damaging them
screw the new sensor in until it is hand tight
use the spanner to tighten it maybe a 1/4 turn more...cukup rasa
then plug in the wire(s)
now open the radiator cap and top up the water as required
and you are done

no more than 10 minutes wink.gif

Sigh .... how come you don't understand plain English ?

It means he swapped his 4G13 or 4G15 for an Altis engine.

It looked like a Mitsubishi engine, though I'm sure he
said it was an Altis.

He said it had good fuel comsumption. Also had an auto gearbox.
Changed to a double layer radiator, and his temp never went
above the first quarter mark, which means the fan hardly ever
comes on.

Using a GP battery meant for racing, cost some $300.

He said the engine cost him $3,800, and had to wait for
a few months. If you are interested in this conversion,
I'll have to phone him to ask where he did it.

He told me some guy offered him $18,000 for his Iswara
sedan, 1995 model I think. Body and paintwork still in
good condition, I think repainted.

This compares with my 1997 model, which used to belong
to my younger brother, and Honda offered him .... $4,000
when he asked about trading it in for his new City. So my
elder brother decided to buy it from him for the same price,
and I'm the one who has now borrowed it.

Quite a nice guy, good conversationist and very helpful.

hey guys...i own one iswara aeroback year 1995.... so far i had changed the engine once... but this car really need a major rebuild work.... as for now, the car hood and dashboard shake like hell when rpm is lower than 1k... as far as i understand, this is majorly because of the engine mounting right? if it is because of the mounting, how much usually will it cost to change 1 set of the mounting including the installation fees and any recommended workshop for this work? and another thing, this car when i hit a bump or rough road, the sounds is like shit... its like "kedebang kedebang", i think its from the doors.. anyone know how to rectify this?

Might be a good idea to wrap a couple of turns of
white teflon tape around the base of the threads
of the sensor to insure against leaks ?

If you have not bought the sensor yet, you can do this.
In the meantime, I think you can bypass the sensor
to let the fan run directly. I believe the sensor (actually
just a bimetallic strip) is just a link between the fan's
negative wire and earth, with the radiator's body acting
as the earth.

Just disconnect it, and connect a jumper wire from
the fan's connector to any body earth, say the
radiator mounting nut.

The fan will run continously the moment the ignition
key is turned to "ACC", and the engine will run a bit
cool (probably up to the first quarter mark), but should
be alright.

As for the fuse, I'm a new owner too, not sure where
the fuse box is located, but I think I see a panel for one
under the right side of the dashboard ?

Same here from the 1997 saloon which I've just
started taking over from my brother, though the
engine mounting shake is not very bad.

If you can live it, leave it alone for the moment.
I remember checking the mountings cost on the
net and not really cheap - four in all, front, back,
sides.

Call James of Universal Auto at 03-922 11 900
and check the prices.


Try raising both your idle speed and FICD to say
1,100 rpm.

The "bling blang" sound may be from the doors or
maybe the floor panels below them. I get them
even when just going over slightly rough roads and
was wondering what it was. Sounds like we are driving
a lorry, right ? I just ignore it.

Otherwise, will have to check with a mudguard man.
