i have a 92 mercury sable, and it over heats when im stopped, idling, or slowed down.
when i start going fast, like on the highway, it cools down. but when im stopped, the temp gauge keeps going up. theres water in the radiator coolant overflow tank, and sometimes when the car is really overheating, that liquid will bubble all the way to the top of the over flow tank.
ive had power ran directly to the radiator cooling fan and it doesnt come on. im wondering what causes the radiator fan to come on? i know theres a motor, but theres something that turns that motor on when the car is too hot.
im taking it to the shop tomorrow, but i dont want to pay the estimate fee.. so i was wondering if anyone can pinpoint what they think the problem is?
thanks a lot!! :)
