Follow the upper radiator hose from the radiator to the engine block. It should be in the housing that the hose clamps to. The thermostat housing usually has a round top and is attached to the block with two bolts and a gasket.

89 Buick Century Door Lock Problem

M

Money Pitt on Jan 08, 2002

Just bought this car for my daughter. As I was driving it home, I used the electric door lock button and all the doors locked just fine. I stopped for gas and went to get out and the lock on the drivers door would not release. All the others did. I tried manually unlocking it from the inside w/out success. I climbed out and used the key to unlock it. It felt as though the key would break at any minute put it finally unlocked the door. I did the same senerio several times and had the same problem each time. It also appears that the latch is digging into the stricker bar. Very worn shinny spot on the latch arm and pin. Before I tear into the door panel has anyone else experienced this problem? What could be causing it and how can I fix it. Other than this issue the car is real solid and dependable for a 1st car w/145k miles. Thanks, Doug P.S. Nothing beats a GEO Metro :DRead More

96 Neon fan goes on/off frequently

on Jan 08, 2002

I have a 96 Dodge Neon with the 1.6L SOHC engine. After the car has warmed up the radiator fan will come on for 1-2 seconds, go off for 1-2 seconds and repeat this cycle indefinitely. It happens when the car is sitting and idling and seems to be worse when there is some other electrical load on the car (like the heater fan or lights). It doesn't seem to happen (or at least is not noticable) when the car is moving. Help!Read More
