    Overheating at idle

    So I’m pretty sure ford messed up with the coolant flush because I’ve been going for small drives, letting it cool, and filling the tank back up. Once it cools down to a certain point I can see the coolant level drop in the tank from the fill line to the bottom of the tank. So there must still...

    Sunroof?

    I have a sunroof in my 03 cobra and I love it. One of the previous owners had it put in so I’m unsure of the details on it but it’s very nicely done.

    Oil temp gauge issue.

    So my car is completely cooled down first thing In the morning I go to start it and the oil temp gauge goes right up to the halfway point as soon as I turn it on. It’s not a gradual increase either like it immediately goes to halfway and never goes above or below that. Coolant temp gauge is...

    Having issues with my 03 termi. Not sure whats going on. Please help!

    Just drove it around for a bit after filling at crossover and I didn’t experience any overheating. I’m not sure if that helps eliminate some issues or not.
