It has a 2.0 dual overhead cam engine with 97000 miles . The last few days the engine has indicated it's over heating . The gauge goes into the red zone .The last few days we have had 100 degree temps.The coolant fan is running . I replaced the thermostat with no help . I felt the hoses and there was no pressure to them . So I replaced the cap and still no pressure and still overheating . What to check for next ?

I have been checking the fill tank . It's full warm and some movement just not much ? Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Aug 1, 2009, 11:12 PM Post #4 of 4 (1322 views) Re: Focus help Sign In That's OK. You have a pressurized tank so that's just as good. Something isn't adding up here. Are you sure it's actually getting that hot and the gauge isn't wrong? I would try using a laser thermometer on the thermostat housing itself to see how hot it's getting. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
