As I have been discussing in the newbie forum, my girlfriends Mercury Mystique is having an overheating/ running hot problem.
From what we have found out, that the car is leaking coolant on the side of the engine that is closest to the coolant reservoir. Is this the side the water-pump is on?
Also is the thermostat located just under the air intake?
At what time or temperature gauge location should the fans come on?
She has noticed that when her car does start to run hot that she usually has no heat when cranking up the heater, after topping of her coolant, when noticed that some hot air did return.
She also has the check engine light on, and an icon with a fan like icon is on her dash.
It is a 95 Mercury Mystique 4 cylinder
Thanks
