    Overheating...

    I do plan on changing the temp. sending unit and coolant temp. sensor. I bought a Motorcraft sending unit part# SW925 and a E-Tron component sensor part#LRS-12648A. Will the sending unit work with an aftermarket temp gauge? Or do you get a new sensor when you purchase the gauge?

    Overheating...

    Update New thermostats in, new radiator cap, all new hoses and clamps, all new coolant. Same problem. When the car starts warming up, the temp. gauge rises as usual, but doesnt stop. This last time I did notice that when I give it some gas it seemed to rise faster. Sounds like a go ahead and...

    Thanks, I got a shop ordering one for me. But im gonna go with the 195. I dont think a 180 is necessary for me, especially being in December. Have any of you guys had problems with the computer trying to make adjustments to compensate after installing the 180?

    Overheating...

    All my hoses are brand new. I havent noticed any white smoke, however, after filling my system up with coolant, after a week or so my low coolant light would come on. I never had a cooling problem when this happens i just thought my reservoir had a leak. "i had the same problem and tore my...

    Overheating...

    My car won't cool down. When it warms up it continues to get hot until I turn it off. The obvious reason would be that the thermostat is closed shut, but just a couple months ago I put a Stanton 180 degree t.stat and a 3 row radiator. My car has been perfect until yesterday when this happened...

    Buying a motor...

    I was thinking about buying a motor from one of the companies that advertise in 5.0 Mustang and Super Fords because I have never assembled my own motor, I dont know how. So I was wondering if there are any reasons why I should'nt. Any incite would be appreciated.
