Keep at it tarpenny I know what you mean though you have done double what I’ve done in half the time but it helps when you know what your doing mine will be off the rd now for a few months till it’s all done underneath

They come on with gas pressure for the aircon unless you have done my mod.

On the v8 they also come on at a specified coolant temp. Unless I'm mistaken

They come on with aircon gas pressure and in the case of the V8 a coolant overheat situation, let the engine get that hot only if you find doing head gaskets a pleasurable past time.

Got a pair sat wont have time till tomorrow though.
What can I do or unplug to make it home 4 miles without burning out the compressor.

You could unplug the compressor in the boot under the spare wheel I think, but being an L322 lord knows how many other faults that would flag up.

I've got 2 numbers in my head, 97 or 95 for the fans to come on, but can't see either in rave though i might just be blind. Do you know?

I got 97c as the default value for instrument warning on nanocom. Found a value of 107c as the overheat condition for the fans to come on! Yes, if want them to come on much lower than that
Is this what your mod does datatek? And where would i find details?

The overheat activation of the fans on the V8 is at 105/107C but not very accurate i suspect.
I can send you details of my aircon fans mod if you PM me an email address. It is not suitable for cooling the V8 without the viscous fan, but is a useful back up for viscous fan failure.

You put any more thought into the V8 rad swapover data?

Well the yellow filler primer turned up today gave one of the wheels a few coats

Jealous

RangeRoller dt · Apr 24, 2020

If you were close enough for either of our p38s to make it that far, and we weren’t both under house arrest, I’d do yours in an afternoon easy.
Thanks for the idea @Kev12 how did yours go?

What are you implying about my p38 huh!?

RangeRoller dt · Apr 24, 2020

I don’t need to imply anything I’ve seen your threads

RangeRoller dt · Apr 24, 2020

It’s not your fault it’s a V8. Just your fault you got one.
