Glanza-Ben Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I've just swapped the new engine from 1 Glanza into another Glanza and all is well apart from two plugs on thermostat housing which ain't there on my old one which had one plug any one had this before Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Was it a GT engine in the Glanza ? I know there are a few different housings used on starlets. I had this when putting a 98 spec engine in a GT. Just swap the full thermostat housing over. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

_shaun_ Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 The 96 and 98 spec Are different I no the water tempt sensors on the thermo housing are different but not see what else on the engine side Quote Link to post Share on other sites

_shaun_ Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 From memory the later 98 spec has an oval plug which costs a fortune and the 96 didn't. If you have a look on camskills am sure they list both new with pictures and you can see if its the 98 spec one your have Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza-Ben Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 There's two plugs the I don't have on thermostat housing my loom has a oval ish shape but the housing has a different shape and a spade connector sensor Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan-11 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Is the oval ish shape plug green? Im sure the coolant temp sensors are different are they not? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza-Ben Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 Is the oval ish shape plug green? Im sure the coolant temp sensors are different are they not?No the green one is plugged in its just this one plug left on my loom but as said the new engine has a different shape sensor and another sensor like a spade connector next to it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dangeestarlet Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 The spade connector is the temp for the in car temp gauge, you should have one on your loom and on the housing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza-Ben Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 Does anyone know if I can just cut the sensor off the loom and put it in place of my sensor Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Socks Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 The looms also pass through the firewall differently... Facelift ep91 - Goes thru top right hand side... Pre-Facelift ep91 - Go through under inlet AND top right hand side... Fusebox's are also different... The Looms are very different! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
