Engine Cooling problem
1998 Ford Contour 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual
I have a 1998 Ford Contour that was overheating. I have changed the thermostate as well as the Waterpump but I am still over heating. I fill the tank and in just a few miles it is gone. It doesn't appear that I have smoke or steam coming from my tailpipe. And my oil is not chocolatey or foamy. I have had the hoses checked and pressure tested. People are now telling me it still can be a cracked head gasket or cylinder, or possibly I need to check the electric cooling fan. Would water dissapear from the radiator tank if it was a problem with the fan? Also, would my wiring or sensors create overheating in any way?
