[quote=”EricTheCarGuy” post=103282]Did you purge the air from the system after your upgrades? If not that could be the issue.
http://www.ericthecarguy.com/faq/what-to-do-when-your-engine-overheats%5B/quote%5D
I did have a problem with my heat also, not all the time some times it blows hot and some time cold, with the above problems I am having, can it be just a clog heater core?
Also when I first noticed that, first thing I did was replace the thermostat and when I went to take the old one out, yeah she didn’t have a thermostat in, there is one now but could there be any damage that can happen as a result of not having a thermostat for a period of time?

Ok cool thanks, I did notice that the shop gave me a new cap, its not the Mishimoto cap that the radiator came with so I will have the shop test that Monday.
I googled this issue and must that had this problem that I am seeming to have had said they didn’t know they had a head gasket problem till they took off the heads, they said it passed all tests and was not having symptoms of a headgasket issue but took the heads off and found the leak
any thoughts on that?

I have 2 question on this.
1. If there is air in the system, can you drive it for about 1 hour fine with no issues before you start having issues, that’s what happened in my case.
2. I’m starting to think I may have a headgasket issue, but no symptoms cooling is a beautiful green, does not smell like gas, car does not smoke, the car runs beautiful the only issue I am having is the cooling system.
But you may have a better idea about the 95 Ford Mustangs with the 3.8 v6 headgasket issues with the symptoms they have.

Well I had a shop do the wiring, well they actually talked me in to getting rid of the 14″ Mishimoto slim fan for the dual fan from Summit Racing, and they told me they burped the system, told me to keep an eye on it if there is a little air left in the system just to add colling to the overflow if its low.
But never told me it would overheat that will make me have to inch my way home a 1/4 mile at a time

Radiator, Cooling fan, relay/wiring as seen in this thread http://www.ericthecarguy.com/kunena/2-General-Discussion/51784-95-mustang-coolin-system-upgrade-question?start=10#102448
And yes I did have issues with the cooling before I had issues with the fan kicking on,
after the upgrade the cooling system was working sweet for a half hour drive to the bank to cash my check and like 20 mins on the way back, then it started overheating and that was it, I had to drive a 1/4 mile and shut the car down over and over inching my way home
