Grands are known for this problem. Most likely your not getting the air flow through the Radiator at an idle. Check to be sure that you have ALL Shrouds that come stock, check that your Clutch Fan is in good condition, be sure that you don't have any obstructions blocking the Trans cooler or A/C condensor that is in front of the Radiator, Check the Radiator for obstructions, IE dirt, feathers, hair, etc. I have seen corroded water pumps on the inside that allowed water to go past the fins instead of being pushed by them. I hope this helps you to find the trouble.

2000 jgc 6-cylinder over heats while parked and idleing ok when driving what can cause this?

The electric fan is not operating. Either the sensor that controls the fan is bad, or the fan motor has burned up. Possibly, something is jammed in the fan, and preventing it from turning. Could also and most likely the relay has failed, the fan motor could have failed 1st and this will burn out the relay. Look for other cooling issues, I have posed a detailed desription on how to replace the relay without removing the front facia.

Can Texas police pull over a parked car?

I'm not sure how anyone could "pull over" a car that was parked. Police can investigate a parked vehicle that is parked unlawfully or that appears suspicious. If the car is in a public place, an officer would not require any probable cause to look at it more closely than he could by just driving by. If the car is occupied, he can ask to speak to the occupants. The occupants don't necessarily have to talk with him.Parenthetical Comment: As an F.Y.I. - - even if the car is 'parked' - if it is occupied and someone is sitting behind the wheel, then that person is deemed to be "in control" of the vehicle whether or not it is moving or the engine is running.

Would gash in air intake hose cause 93 ford probe gt to die?

i know that's a stupid question.. But i have a 93 ford probe gt and im always having problems with it. Sometimes my car dies when you give it gas. The rpms jump like crazy while im driving and parked and lots of times it goes all the way to zero and my car cuts off. Its idleing extremely low and it almost feels like its puttin while idleing..Ive taken it to shops after shops and they don't even test it they just say its an electrical problem (my distributor) My distributor has been rebuilt about 2 years ago and i honestly don't think anything is wrong with it. I recently seen that i have about a 3 inch gash in my air intake hose. So im wondering could that stupid hose cause all of those problems? please someone help..

The most common cause for occasional, small oil leaks is a worn seal or damaged gasket. The leaks are most visible when parked but occur constantly.


Would your airmatic relay cause your car to lower while its parked?

This is not the cause, this relay is to start the and run the compressor (Basically) and it will not cause the system to lower overnight.
