Ya, I'm not even sure I knew that terminology until I started shopping for the blue truck. And that was in 2020, so don't feel bad.
You know what, I think I did end up with some. I think I might have bought a few gallons of some winter formula last year cause it was cheaper than Walmart brand. I could be running rain x washer fluid which would make sense to the constant beading action. But to be honest I'm not really sure what's in there. It takes me forever to use the tank in my daily driver. But I usually just buy cheap Walmart fluid. And for all I know as good as I remember that rain x I bought could of been three years ago?
I know what you mean on the three year comment. IDK, there is that part of me that wants to try rain-x again, with the washer fluid, just to see but I guess just like my safelite story even though it happened so long ago it just leaves me with a feeling. And I've got a windshield formula I've very happy with, which is quality blades replaced every fall, 20/10 fluid and a clean windshield, I'm a big sprayway fan btw. Thanks again for the info.
As you know should be no vac at the EFE when warmed up. I don't know what else could be the problem other than the TVS.Did some more EFE trouble shooting- I am getting ballpark 16 to 18 inches of vacuum on the EFE line with the engine fully warmed up. I experimented with a pair of new vaccuum check valves in lieu of the round 4 ported one - no change.
I am convinced that new(er) TVS is *****.
Really? F-u-b-a-r is focking censored?
I also found one of the Auto Thermac hoses I flipped the other day had a split in it causing a mild leak so my efforts were not all in vain.
And, I ordered those 2 TVSs - due in Friday.
I'll play then - unless the shop can take her in tomorrow for the brakes.
Which we tried again to trip the valve and get the light to come on - just ain't happening.
- and there is one on the water neck for the EFE and one in the intake manifold just to the left of the water neck for the EGR.Oh, i should have been more clear. Where to purchase the thermal sensor in the breather.@SirRobyn0 seems to be pretty sharp.
When you say you can't find the sensor - meaning you cannot find where it is, or where to buy it ?
Where it is on Goldie - and presumably yours - is on the water neck. I have 2 of them - lucky me
Standard Motor Products P/N PVS82 for the EFE , and for me, PVS53 for the EGR based on the port configuration. Yours may be 100% the same, or , maybe not.
I have my EFE line plugged w/ a screw for now, laying up on the valve cover until I get my TVS valve.
This is all band aid stuff as when the motor gets done all this malarkey goes buh bye ! Well, except for the PCV & charcoal cannister.
Best of luck !
