    Need Explanation Of How Air Vents Work

    Let me clarify about the rubber gasket. It is between the two halves of the valve. It has little valleys engraved in it for the different settings. The white piece has a spring washer on it for tension. I broke the -- tips (hooks) of the tabs off so they no longer protrude out past the control...

    Need Explanation Of How Air Vents Work

    Cam Sensor Timing

    I have the Casper's tool and am trying to set the sensor. I turned the crank from 0 to 25, stopped at 25 and then rotated the cam sensor from clock wise to counter-clockwise and locked it down. Now if I turn the crank past 25 degrees and come back to 25, the LED is off by about 25...

    ECM mod for fan relay noise

    I understand a 1uf 50V capacitor can be soldered across diode CR10 to reduce fan relay noise. Is this an electrolytic (polarized) capacitor and if so, does the + go to the anode of CR10? Thanks.
