Tks Old Guy .. wasn't aware of that potential issue. See my comments above to Honcho. I think I'll risk doing it and seeing if we can't make it work

Honcho .. tks for the comments and images. I don't know what year yours is my mine is a '91 and I had all the main coolant hoses done in 2008 (SOS set IIRC) so 17 years on the OEM set and now 16 years on the SOS set. But good to know that we might be able to sand them down in a pinch as a...

Old Guy .. tks for the additional comments on the thermostat .. much appreciated. I have now ordered the three hoses, the figure 8 gasket, and thermostat .. and will pass along the tips from you, Honcho, and Larry B to Pat who will be doing the grunt work. I believe the idler was part of the...

Honcho .. tks very much for chiming in .. appreciate it

Tks very much for the comments and recommendations. I think I'll have all three done. I'm having an oil change done at the same time and a new oil pressure switch so it's a good time to be doing the hoses as well. On a related question, the thermostat has never been replaced in slightly over...

Hi Old Guy. I'm having the major service done on my car soon and was thinking of having the oil cooler hoses done at the same time (the main coolant hoses were done some time ago). I had saved some old posts about the oil cooler hoses and had a look at some more recent ones and they all seem...

Sorry for not replying sooner. I assume you know that the body and most of the suspension bits are aluminum so the only things that corrode tend to be non-aluminum bits like the exhaust; headers; etc. .. I haven't had to replace anything due to 'corrosion' although I did have to replace the...

Sorry for not replying sooner .. it's been a bit of an adventure. For some reason, I'm not being notified of replies to my posts and by the time I saw your post, I had already ordered a new blower as I had come to the same conclusion as you did in the above comment. And since I have over 200k...

Ha ha .. yes, brain fart! Will have to go back and edit. Yes, I'm still around but have been fully retired for about 6 yrs so don't put on as many miles but still drive it 4 or 5 days a week .. and don't tuck it away for the winter like you do. I was wanting to go south for engine...

I'm starting to wonder if I might the only one with a slightly different blower fan 'bug'. Mine started intermittently not working. It would typically not come on at all at startup with CCU on .. and changing the speed or CCU mode settings would not cause it to come on .. yet, it would...

I'm a little late posting this but as of Sept 14, I'm officially in the 200k club. I say 'officially' since the odometer now shows it but I've been over 200k for a while since I run 60 series snow tires in the winter (instead of stock 50s) which add an extra 6% or so. I'd guess for the 11...

Tks Old Guy for referencing that old thread .. although there's likely no good 'quick/cheap' news in it for the OP. Although some of the other posts reported similar failures, to my knowledge it was never mentioned in any NSX buying guide that I had ever read so unfortunately tough luck for OP...

Yes, that's it.

I just removed mine recently and something that you might want to know is that the electrical connector just pulls out. It was clear to me at the time whether there was some kind of thing which held it in place .. or whether it needed to be rotated before pulling it out .. but just pulling it...

I think it was an early compare chart against competitors that Car and Driver or one of the other mags did who said the 3366 was without fluids so the 3600 was their projection of what a real life weight would be.
