Andy, thanks for the reply. I forgot to mention in my post that my engine light
also comes on more often when I am climbing a long hill. Must be something
that is common with the 88 PT 40's. Hopefully between the two of us we can find
a solution to this problem and will not have to keep over filling the coolant
reservoir.

I also have a 88 PT40 WB with the exact symtoms, must be a
manufactured problem.

How did you remove yours? Also,

Gene: The front of my 93 has a panel that come's off. under this
panel is the front electrical load center with all the cannon plugs
visable. Easy to get to and they just twist to seperate. I buy the
tuner spray cleaner at any radio shack store. Hope this help's..Bob

Thanks, I know the plugs you are talking about now. I did not realize that they
call them
cannon plugs. Thanks again.

I also have a 1988 pt40 with the check engine light that comes on
when I pull a long hill,this has been constant for four years, The
code say low coolant when the tank is full. I have been into William
Detroit in Georgia and Phoenix, Detroit diesel shops in North
Dakota, Kansas, Missouri, Michigan, and more. The suggestions and
cures have ranged from poor ground, bad injectors, bad sender, to
duck tape over the lite. I now believe it must be a fault in the
computer or wiring or other magical places. But, if other 88 pt40
owners have the same problem it probably is a manufacuring flaw. If
anyone finds a cure please post it.

My 1988 PT40 does the same.

Does anyone know where to find a coolant sensor for a DDEC II 8V.
Mine has, I think, gone to it's great reward. You would think BB used better
parts than to only last 21 years.
