Coolant tank install#
Rather install a inline T and install the temp sensor into that while I hunt for a good priced tank. But when i clear it, the triangle disappears as well as the CEL and then about 10 secs later returns the same code.Īfter looking over the flow of water between pumps and valves, I can't find any reason why I need to replace the tank. Cant remember the exact one off the top of my head. Closer inspection reveals the temp sensor for the tank is missing. The check engine light is on because of it, as well as the red triangle of death.Ģ. The tank isnt white anymore, but isnt dark orange like mine. This Aluminum coolant reservoir is a direct replacement to the Rx8s OEM plastic coolant tank that can become brittle with age and is known to have coolant. Took a look at a JSW with 82K, and the tank looks cleaner. First step is to flush coolant (149) and clean tank, then drive to see if sediment returns. The tank pump is still there and functioning and they drove the car this way the last 2 years. Since its the cooling system, this may need in-depth troubleshooting (taking part engine, 4-500). Whoever did the work, just eliminated the tank from the loop. I discovered when buying the car that the Coolant storage tank was never replaced as I am sure that it was demolished in the wreck and they didn't want to spend the $ on the over priced thermos. (Yes complete opposite world from the prius I know) The front still needs a little work, and it will now be my project car to drive around town instead of my 2500 Chevy Diesel. Rotate the coolant level sensor 90ð counter-clockwise and pull out (green arrow). Damage was not that bad and I find that insurance companies seem to total out these prius relatively easy. Figure 10 When replacing the E46 expansion tank, you will have to swap the coolant level sensor from the old tank to the new one. The car was restored and has been since 2010.
