Wiring question?

redmaro · 05-09-2006, 04:38 PM

Any one know what the whole wiring for the motor costs?

A few days ago my car has started having some problems, the car wont start at the first time.
And I got a light on my dash on the left side of the driver thats shaped like a little circus type of house. What does this lite mean (Air filter?)?

the funny little house is your 'cooling system' warning light. check you coolant level. Also, is your engine over heating? if so this would also be why.

Its not overheating.

Can it be that It only has water in it? havent put in coolant yet.

The overflow resovoir is supposed to have some water in it when its cold. There is a mark on the bottle for this, if you still have a light when filled to the cold line then the sender is probably toast. Mine is acting up again. Last fix I got one from a junkyard, don't know the price of a new one. Its supposed to catch the overflow during extreme driving conditions like desert etc. When the motor cools down it draws the water back in the radiator via vacuum. If the bolltle fills up as your driving like mine used to just driving 20 miles then its a sure sign that the head gasket it gone.

The little light went off but now I have a new problem. When I put my car in neutraul the car revs itself to 2000RPM's. And when I put it in drive it feels like its accelerated a little. What can this be?
