David, First , if you did that job twice on an LXI by yourself and removed and installed the pump and PTO as one assembly.... you ARE Hercules!!!!!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() As for the fan and controller, I had a new fan motor installed in 2007, seeping seal....... on the 95, 96, and not sure about 97, we have the DDEC III, you have IV. Anyway with DDEC III you only have 2 speeds on the fan......low and high and you can hear the difference, we are not variable like you.....that's another reason, as you stated in previous posts, LXI's DDECIV's get better mileage than us and your fan speed is variable, but yes I keep an eye on the controller and did make sure the fan worked in both modes! Thanks for the tips and reminding me to mention this as that is why I road tested it to get it up to temp for the low/ high fan check and to work out any remaining air bubbles in the system. Also for those of you with DDECC IV / LXI, please look at David's suggestion about fan speed. Since you have variable, check the motor and controller. You DO NOT want to do this job only to loose the engine to a bad fan motor or controller!!!!! Very IMPORTANT. thanks David for mentioning it for our LXI owners! Tips/ clues here is loss of mileage and an s60 that runs warm....... IF that occurs, then the photo tachomoeter deal would be a good thing to do as David mentioned! Many things can affect mileage but tuned up s60's usually hold strong so just be aware of the signs as David mentioned! Yes, and nothing like doing that job and the old bird comes online smoothly!!!!!! What a FABULOUS feeling, you are 100% correct! Hummm since I saved the labor cost on this job, I guess I am entitled to by a new toy or some bling! ![]() Pete and Donna Chin 95 42' WLWB On The Road Always! :-) " We'll raise up our glasses against evil forces singing, Whiskey for my men, and beer for my horses!"-Toby Keith & Willie Nelson - The bridge from Toby Keith's title album track "beer for my horses" |
