I recently did a valley of death teardown and now the car seems to have problems starting when cold. The only thing I really touched thats involved in the hot/cold start circuit from what I can tell is the thermotime switch. I removed it from my old water pump and replaced it in the new one. My question is, does the switch threads use the water pump as a ground? I put teflon tape around the threads before reinstalling. This is my only idea so far, as I do not know how this circuit works (what is being sent and triggered by the switch) and haven't pulled out the multimeter yet to check it. Any comments are appreciated, thanks. -Derek #10084 To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnews Yahoo!
