New problems on #3299



Hey there everyone.

I have been working alot on #3299 that I bought Nov 11th. Replaced the governor, vacuum modulator, applied the major tuneup kit for automatics, flushed the fuel lines, and replaced the control pressure regulator. Now I have two new symptoms, everyone - give me your best ideas.

1. The cooling fans are not coming on. This is extremely vague as is; I have not tested to see if they ARE coming on when turning on the A/C. I will let everyone know as soon as I can if they are coming on when flipping on the A/C. The car dumped ALOT of coolant with light smoke coming out the very back rear-end. (This is after the car has been driven for 25+ minutes)

2. The car is idling very high. When I first got it, it idle'd around 900-1100 rpm. Now it's idling around 1500rpm-2400rpm. It gets progressively worse; the car doesn't idle anywhere near that high when first turned on. It goes from low rpms to high rpms as the car warms up.

I've tried to describe the problems to the best of my ability. If anyone has any ideas what the problems might be, please let me know. I just today got the workshop manual, so please excuse me if I sound completely naive; I haven't even been able to look at the manual yet.
