Re: Nearly Overheated el Mach Juan today, ticking fan.

So, I replaced the broken fan only to have the car overheat on me AGAIN last week. I bought a new tstat (though I messed up and got a 192* not a 180). I am also getting stuff to flush the radiator tomorrow. This car has been a PITA lately. I am also having an issue with my CEL p0190 being thrown all the time. I have already replaced the FRPS and it started happening again. Bah. At least the car gets put up for winter around this time of year anyway.
