    Should I be worried about coolant potentially in the cylinders?

    I think I'm good. I would guess I went four or so full rotations (from 9 o'clock to 3 o'clock twice per rotation) without anything more than some hissing from the valves and regular resistance build-up/release. Thanks all!

    Should I be worried about coolant potentially in the cylinders?

    Alright, I'll give it a try tonight as it sits. I'm paranoid about the spark plugs, and they were just replaced a couple thousand miles ago, so I'd rather leave them alone for now.

    Should I be worried about coolant potentially in the cylinders?

    Clockwise - got it. Is it supposed to be smooth rotation, or like pulling a lawn mower starter where it alternates between easy and hard spots? I can't throw off any timing or anything by just turning it several revolutions with everything disconnected? Finally, the crankshaft is a big wheel...

    Should I be worried about coolant potentially in the cylinders?

    The net amount vacuumed out was not much. From what I could see #1 and #4 had the most visible in them. Before stopping Monday night there was maybe 1/4" - 1/2" left visible in #1 chamber, and #4 I couldn't get a good angle on to look in, but the first couple paper towels came out wet.

    Should I be worried about coolant potentially in the cylinders?

    Pardon my words, car talk is not one of my native languages. I had coolant leaking significantly around the intake manifold, and separately a small leak from the radiator on my 2002 EB. Monday night I followed a YouTube video to take off the manifold (bad gaskets easily observed, but hard to...

    '02 EB rear climate wiring.

    #2 and #4 match the panel side yes, I also need to know where they go to on the empty connector I've got flopping around. I'll see if I can attach a picture of the connector.

    '02 EB rear climate wiring.

    I've recently realized that the previous owner was a little shoddy with past repairs. After replacing the leaky rear heater core, I decided to do a little leg work as to why the rear blend doors didn't seem to be doing anything. I found the back seat control panel unplugged - all except the fan...

    Front Blower not working...

    I did not check the new one. My meter was not handy and it was already approaching 100f in the shade by the time I got a chance to work on it. Thanks again.

    Front Blower not working...

    For future reference: I replaced the blower assembly today and all is good once again. The bad motor registered 3MOhms. I hope to never have to replace it again as one of the screws was meant to never be removed in the space allotted, and the squirrel cage assembly was too big to come out with...

    Front Blower not working...

    Thank you. Checking the motor with a meter, what kind of resistance values would I be looking at for good/bad?

    Front Blower not working...

    Well, as far as I can tell the fuses are good, and if I'm reading the manual right, the "Aux" blower is via the main fuse first, so if the rear is working then it shouldn't be the fuses? Anyway, I checked them and they're continuous - as well as the relay under the hood. I have an EATC, and...

    Front Blower not working...

    I know this is a very old thread, but my '02 just started doing the same thing, and as I'm just starting research was wondering if a conclusion was ever made in this matter or similar.

    EATC and Fuel Gauge

    Don't worry about finding the tests for the fuel gauge, I've got that one bookmarked for a weekend already :)

    EATC and Fuel Gauge

    I have two problems that are not related. I've gotten them mostly figured out by lurking around here and other various places, but I was hoping to get the last few answers that I haven't been able to find. 2002 EB 1: My AC only kicks on when I set my EATC to 60f, and vice versa the heater is...

    very little heat front/rear

    Not to highjack the thread, but this is exactly what I came on here tonight looking for myself. Thanks for the tips so far.

    need 17" spare

    Well I'm in the opposite boat, I have a 17" spare and will be moving to 16's from the previous owner's 22's - when I have the cash for the tires. Unfortunately, Chicago and Memphis are a little far for me to offer a trade.
