I’ve found several posts somewhat similar to my situation but not quite the same. 2014 GT. Radiator fan connection melted (common problem after doing research) unfortunately before doing most of my research I replaced the water pump, and thermostat and did a coolant flush (in my driveway) A day...

I've got a 2008 Mustang that's overheating every time I drive it, even for short distances. I've kept plenty of coolant in it, and there's no apparent leak. The A/C will blow but will not cool. I'll be driving it, and it will seem fine until I have to stop at a light, and then it will idle so...

Hi, all. Last winter, I noticed that I wasn't getting sufficient cabin heat in my 2007 Mustang V6 4.0L. In previous years, the heat kicked a**. Toasted you right up. I've been trying to approach this systematically from a number of avenues. So far, this is what I've done (to no avail)...

Hey guys, I'm new to the forums but am on my third Mustang. I recently bought a 2005 GT with 76k miles and I am loving it. I haven't had any problems whatsoever, but my temperature gauge is reading slightly hot. Instead of being at the halfway mark, when it warms up it goes to about the 5/8 mark...

I have a 97 GT and I got on it a little bit the other day and looked down to realize the temp guage was pretty high, i let it cool down immediately but haven't been able to find the cause. The fan kicks on almost as soon as it warms up but I have started it without the cap and I do not see any...

So I've been trying to do research and I keep getting mixed answers wherever I look. I have '68 Mustang with '73 302 in it. I only drive it in the spring/summer. I live here in Illinois and it gets pretty warm here in the summer. The car has never overheated, but sometimes when I'm driving in...

Today I noticed my temperature gauge fluctuating on my 66 mustang. I have the stock gauges nothing aftermarket or digital. It goes from the low reading to the high and back down to normal while driving. Not sure if it is the thermostat or sending unit. Al other gauges are working fine. Any help...

Car: 1993 GT, mostly stock, 5-speed Symptoms: Heater blows cold or lukewarm air Temperature gauge never comes up, stays at minimum Loud ticking sound while cooling down after engine is shut off (louder than normal) Symptoms I'm NOT having: Overheating. No steam after driving. Coolant...

Hi, this is my first post on here so im new to this. but the past few days i have been noticing that my car is running cool at about the quarter mark whenever im cruising at a steady speed like on a highway or something but once i get to a busy area with stop lights and traffic my car heats up...

I have been looking through the forums and haven't found an identical situation, so I figure it's ok to post. Lately my 1998 GT has been having oveheating issues. When I am driving it, it will still stay at the R in NORMAL but if I let it idle for very long then it goes all of the way to the...

I have a 68 Mustang with a 1970 351w motor. I have an overheating problem I cannot solve. So far, I've tried the following to fix it: Rebuild process 1. Changed the water pump. 2. Changed the hoses. 3. Changed the thermostat. 4. I rotted out the stock radiator. 5. I changed the radiator cap. 6...

Hi all, I’m a first time Mustang owner. I want to say that I love cars but hated Mustang’s; at first, un tell my fiancé sold our ’66 Charger for his ’91 SSP LX Mustang coupe roller. The plan was to turn it into a street strip car, but people in the car community began to talk about it and next...

Hello! I am new to the forum so please bear with me! Today my check engine light came on and I hooked it up to the computer to find out the thermostat is bad. Is there a step-by-step out there that can walk me through replacing it myself? Parts excluding coolant are about twenty bucks, and I...

I wifes 5.0L 1995 GT cooling system isn't working right. When started up from being cold, the temperature gauge will go almost to the red, and then drop back down to about Nominal. It gets hot enough that it is pushing coolant and steam out in the engine compartment. I think it is coming out...

so this is right behind the water pump to the right of the distributor (standing in front of the engine), ive been digging around and i heard of a weep hole that the waterpump has to warn me its going bad, is this where that hole is?? i started over heating yesterday and i usually stay at...

Top radiator hose blew this morning. Replaced it, filled the coolant resivoir up, and drove about 1 mile to work. Engine immediately heated up and developed a bad "clicking" sound (reminded me of a diesel engine at first) whenever I stepped on the gas. Other than replacing the alternator...

My 2004 cobra is overheating. The fan went so I replaced that, the fuse and the thermostat. Now the fan works but it still over heats. I burped the system got the air out and the water pump isnt making noise. Now my temp gauge will read normal so I leave the ac on as my ghetto temp gauge when it...

Well as the title says despite the bad remarks I ordered a mishimoto radiator and thermostat. Reason being after my mods I started overheating a little bit when I sat in traffic so I figured bigger rad and low temp thermostat and I'll be good to go. So I ordered that one and I'm curious if...

2001 3.8l V6 Mustang I was making my way home from the city, stopped to fuel up. When I left the gas station, my car almost instantly started to sound like a diesel truck. I look at my temperature gauge, and it's pinned in the red. My father (I was not driving the car at the time) turned on...

SO i just put an old four barrel intake of of a early 80's carburated small block and just got it all together. I added coolant and then fired it up and it started spewing water from where the intake meets the head, close to the water neck. what are the odds that i pinched or miasaligned a...
