Keyser Soze Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 Ive been having a cooling problem with this new Banshee I picked up. Even with jetting way rich, engine ice, inline cooler. My CRJ temp gauge still shoots up to 180....fast. Even at speed it wont go below 180-190. When you let it idle for a second it jumps to over 200. Ive check all I can think of. Even a new O-ring kit for my cool head. The fins on the impeller are in good shape, Impeller spins freely. I did notice if I put my thump and press the top of the impeller with a little force the impeller does not move. Im not exactly sure how its designed I just got into banshees. So should it still move if I am pressing my thumb on it? Quote
peterlocal22 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 Im not sure, but if you have the impeller out you may as well replace it with a billet impeller. Then you kill two birds with one stone. You can check to see if the new impeller spins when you put pressure on it and you now have a billet impeller installed and dont have to worry about the plastic stock one burning itself out. Quote
jamebo Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 Alba sells a Pro-design billet impeller for 89.99, they claim 30% more cooling efficiency over stock. Quote
sheefreak Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 You should not be able to hold it w/your thumb. Check the plastic gear and pin that goes through the impeller shaft to to see if it is chewed up(will spin freely) You will see what I mean when you take off the plastic gear on the back side of you clutch cover.
