The fan on my ford escort shuts off when the ac isn't on. Shouldn't the fan run at all times when the engine is on?

Try checking the gas cap. if it is not tight, the engine light tends to come on at random times

What does it sound like when you blow a head gasket on 1991 ford escort?
It sounds like a jalopy, or it sounds fine. But, you will probably lose coolant throughout the engine and the coolant will mix with the engine oil. Your low coolant light will probably come on a few times a week.
1994 Ford Escort LX.The fan at times wont shut off and it wont let the engine start.When the fan finally shuts off after ten minutes the car starts with no problems.Can someone help?
I am assuming that this is a European Escortand not an American oneIf the fan is running with a cold engine when this problem occursthe most likely fault is the engine coolant temprature sensorthis sensor sends signals to the ECUif the wrong signal is being sent, the Ecu may think the car ishot when infact it is cold so the engine would be getting a very weakfuel mixture this would also cause the cooling fan to cut in on a cold engineI hope this helps a littlebest wishes
1997 chrysler minivan starts and shuts down and some times the dash shuts down- could i need a new computer?
A failed computer is possible, It could also be the cluster, wiring, ignition switch, etc.
Your 1999 dodge stratus ran out of gas and when you put more in it would not start what could be wrong?
The fuel pump only runs for a couple seconds after the initial start attempt, then shuts off. Crank the engine for a few seconds. Then turn it off and then do it again for a few more seconds. Do this several times in order to get the fuel to the engine. After a few attempts, the engine should start.. Hope this helps...
You have a 88 olds cutlass ciera that shuts off some times in stop go traffic after it shuts off you are able to start it up again when applying the gas pedal there's a slight hesitation?
the throttle position sensor is bad
If Snowblower runs for 3 seconds and shuts off several times?
If the engine is have trouble turning over at start then there may be a problem with the firing in the inner chambers. If you have a friend that's a handy with engine mechanics you should ask him. However in the short term check the fuel level, are you using the same fuel from last year? You may need to change it.
How do you check for trouble codes on a 1993 ford escort with a jump wire to the wiring harness?
Go to the local library and obtain a repair manual for any escort up to 1994. Your car has the OBD 1 which is easy to access codes from but you will need the key as there are many codes that can be stored. Basically you take a paper clip and short across the diagnostic link and the engine light will flash but again there is a procedure you need to follow. I have done it many times but not on an Escort; but is is not hard once you get the manual.
Is there a single failure point for the ignition Your 1998 Malibu ls engine shuts off without warning at random times restarts fine the plugs and ignition cables were replaced but it still happens?
My wife's car does the same thing. We have narrowed it down to a worn ignition switch.
Are you still logged in to Wikianswers if the computer shuts down and restarts while you were signed in?
Until the connection "times out", yes. However, this won't take long.
When 2000 ford escort zx2 is in park or just idling in drive with brake what makes the car vibrate but stop when you take off?
I have a 2000 Ford Escort ZX2 with Dual Overhead Cams and a 2.0 4 cylinder engine. When I first started experiencing any trouble it was a lot like you describe. Then the engine would cut off at stops. I had taken it to Ford several times while it was still under warranty and they replaced the ignition coil a couple of times and it worked for a while. After the warranty ran out and I had the problem again (exact same symptoms) I replaced the ingnition coil myself but that time it was a vacuum leak. Hope this helps
