1. The engine won't rev beyond 4000 RPM (not that I rev it up that high much) during acceleration. Engine starts to sputter & jerk. Runs just fine up to 3999 RPM's!
2. Electric cooling fan won't come on unless the air conditioning is running. Turn the A/C off, the car overheats. Funny, should be the other way around!
Since the cooling fan does work with the A/C on, I suspect the coolant temperature sensor may be the culprit.
I suspect the Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) or Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensors may have something to do with the latter, but my darn Chilton's manual doesn't give any information about how to check or replace these sensors.
Any advice?
