I had thought of the fans, but could not see them correcting cooling that quickly. Am I wrong?
I went to AutoZone, as they have a cross-reference for the Stant 11229. I am not positive off hand what their part number is, but the...
I have heard varying opinions on checking the oil, even from Ferrari mechanics. The last mechanic (specializing in Ferrari) says to run the car...
That was kind of my thought- bleed, drive, and if the problem persists I will look into it further. Assuming bleeding does not resolve the...
While replacing the cap had a positive effect, I think that I will need to bleed the radiator as the problem was not entirely resolved. A new...
This is the cap that I tried, but O'Reilly does not carry Stant, and does not have a cross reference for them. I will give AutoZone a try and...
I have not had much luck finding a replacement rad cap, and want to get the cap replaced and bleed the rad prior to taking it out. O'Rielly could...
My '82 308 has begun to make sporadic noise when fully warmed up. I warmed it today to check the oil level (from what I have read, the car should...
My situation could be very similar to yours, Artvonne. The drop in oil took place after it had a number of miles on it, but prior to that it...
It seems that Castrol 20W-50 is the 'standard' being used (running an '82 308). I know I had read here about a common additive that these engines...

Well, I have come to the conclusion that I will simply not have the time to perform the major service on my '82 308 GTSi myself. So, what are the...
Eulk328- so, you favor removing the radiator cap from the overflow tank and bringing the car up to temp to push out any air? When you say to put...
Consensus seems to be that if we get the air out, she should stop peeing on the floor. So what is the preferred method among F-car owners?...
Okay, to avoid any confusion, I have taken a photo of the engine compartment. Where my problem lies is that the yellow hose in the pic just leads...
What I have done in the past is as zombee is familiar with- an overflow where the system can suck fluid back in when it cools. It was simply a...
I have been having a small problem with my 308 having the occasional accident on my garage floor after she has been out and gotten warm. Today...
Thanks for the help. I checked relays, grounds, you name it. Then I wiggled fuse #3, and wouldn't you know the fuel pump ran the next time that...
Everything seemed to be going fine, but tonight when I tried to start 'er up, the engine just turned but she would not fire. After some thought...
