96 3100 I notice that there are many posts on here relating to both these topics.
I decided that I am going to flush the system tomorrow and replace the thermostat then when I get a chance to pick up a PCM and VSS from my local pull it yard I will swap those out as well.. and pray this resolves the issue.. the car was abandoned in my yard a year ago finally got it transfered over legally and put a few bucks into it to get it running.. many issues but not completely trouble free.. so once i get past these couple of issue should be okay for a couple of years.. any input or suggestions on these particular topics feel free to hit me up on your thoughts.. any other ideas outside of drilling 2 holes in the thermostat? I would be interested in working past these 2 minor issues that could cost me an engine.. oh btw there are no codes thrown on this after replacing the spark plugs and battery which threw codes prior to replacing and now no codes just runs towards the hot line and the speedo does not work I havent had in out on the highway to test the cruise so i cant say if that works or not.. thanks for any help..
