Got the daughter's Shadow started this morning in the sub-sub-sub-zero temperature. Had it idling in the drive while I worked on starting the truck. I noticed the windshield was not de-icing.
Upon investigation, the upper radiator hose was not hard. The radiator cap was cold. The temp gauge was at 3/4. I popped the radiator cap and got a gush of coolant. The gauge came back to normal.
There is NO heat in the lines to the heater core.
Car is a '88 Shadow TBI which has had at some point a turbo CB engine installed with the TBI manifolds.
I NEVER even thought that the person that did the swap may have reused the old, pre CB water pump.
How to identify what pump is on there? Can I just swap the pump? Will I need a CB WP pulley and/or housing?
Craptacular.
