Can I check my temp sensor (the one that feeds into the temp guage on/in the dash) for its color code with draining out the coolant? I want to check what the mechanic put in, I had both temp II's replaced, along with the therm. housing. My engine is running a bit hotter now, so either (A) the temp II sensor that feeds the gas gauge is the wrong one, (B) they replaced the thermostat without my consent (I had a cooler one in there, by about 5 degrees), or (C) my radiator is compromised by a leak that is only vapor escaping along the passenger side front edge of the radiator (I'm not currently seeing fluid seep out but do see some evidence of corrosion). _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com |
