As with any engine that overheats, the cylinder head of a Ford Mustang will warp if there is insufficient coolant to maintain a safe temperature. Once the had overheats and warps, the head gaskets fail and the cylinders loose compression.

Run a compression check on the engine to see if there is low (near 0) compression on cylinders, and if you determine that the head gasket has failed, you will need someone to resurface the head(s) and replace the head gasket.

It's an expensive mistake, but far too common.

It's highly doubtful that overheating the engine would cause an electrical problem.

Why does your 94 Mazda Protege not start It was starting with no problem a couple of days ago Now for some reason it does not you found that it ran out of gas due to a broken gas gauge and you put gas?

There are two main types of no-starting conditions. Cranks but won't start, and no cranks no start. For a no crank no start condition it is best to suspect a problem with the starter circuit. For a cranks but won't start you have to remember that an engine requires the things to run gas, air, and spark. So what type of condition do you have?


What part would I need if the car cranks but doesnt turn over?
