Rough Running Car / idle ( something I overlooked )

[scouttster]

Is your car jerking between gear shifts? Idling lousy?
This is something I completely overlooked.

My bypass o-rings seals were leaking. I figured no big deal, it leaks a little... It leaks down to the top of the radiator but I still have plenty of water in the system. I'll let it go until I thinking of buying them when I think of buying them.. No big deal.. Shouldn't make the car run that different.

Well, there big-guy did you notice when it leaks down - no water or water temp is circulating around the sensor on the TVSV valve? No, I hadn't noticed it. I overlooked that.. Well, maybe that could be the reason why your car is running rough / idle... - NOT ENOUGH WATER IN THE SYSTEM...

I just changed out my o-rings so my car will now hold all the water she is suppose to and so far I am noticing a big change in the way she idles and runs.

Just a thought I figured I pass along.
Note: the car is not a daily driver, so it was easy for me to overlook this obvious detail

BTW: The o-ring pack I bought had 6 seals. I used 2 and have 4 left. Don't think I'll ever need them again. So, if anyone needs 2 - PM me and I'll give you my address and sell you 2 for a buck and a S.A.S Envelope

I'll take that o-ring deal. Send me your address on the back channel.

Thanks!
