Austarion

Hey guys, new problem with the staz :(

Today i got into my car, turned on the ignition and the car started then died, some white "rubber smelling" smoke wafted out from under the bonnet. After a call to my no.1 nigga Flav it was determined that one of the green fuseable links under the airbox had died. Tried to connect it back together and start the car but it did the same shit and died again, something is shorting in my car.

What i was wondering from you guys was if any of you have had this problem and can tell me what may be shorting out?

Cheers,

Rola.

Power steering oil in the alternator again, once enough drips down on the alternator it goes woof and takes out the fuses.

i donut think my power steering fluid is leaking, ive never seen any oil or anything on the ground after i have parked my car... but i will check anyway, thanks for the suggestion.

btw does that mean my alternator is dead again?

A nail ey? well ill give it a try, but seriously how do i go about replacing a fuseable link?

Sounds like a trip, or more likely, a visit from an autoelec.

If you need to replace your fusible links, JJH on this forum has a contact that can make them up to suit.

Got a new fuseable link made up but its not working, its the white wire with a black stripe connected to the green fuseable link under the air box which is fusing... So does that mean the short is either in the ignition or radiator fan relay (according to the JB elec diagram on this site)?
