I live in So. Cal. and temps here get to the 110+ (sumer trip to palm springs, its so ungodly hot the...

I found the culprit, the cigarette lighter fuse was blown, replaced it and the scanner worked.

ALDL connector problem...*solved*

My blaZeR2 just coughed up a SES light (probably a p0128 = taking too long to reach proper operating temp due to the 180* thermostat)but i ran into another problem.

Thanks HJ and 2K, i appreciate your advice. I did a bit of research and found that the controller sold at www.dccontrol.com is highly regarded by quite a few muscle car people.

Thanks for the kudos gents. Im a bit confused by this though: "1. The drain valve is on the driver's side. Is the drain plug something different?". As far as i know, the drain plug on the radiator is on the lower right hand side. It has a funky looking plug(looks like them tamper proof screws they u...
