Felpro makes an excellent retrofit gasket for this application. Follow the provided instructions, but also use a thin coat of High Temperature RTV on both sides of the gasket prior to assembly to maximize sealing.

Replacement is a simple bolt off/on operation and shouldn't take more than 30 minutes to do.

93 Ford Tempo stalls when its hot outside?

I have a 1992 Tempo that was stalling all the time after it warmed up. I found out there was a class-action lawsuit against Ford for defective design/location of the TFI modules because they malfunction when they get hot. By court order, Ford extended the warranty on these TFI modules to 100,000 miles, regardless of age or resale. My local Ford Dealer ordered a replacement from the Obsolete Parts department at Ford and installed it all at no charge.

Find the blower and locate the electrical connector on it. Using a common volt meter, check the wires for voltage and play with the switches inside the vehicle.....Good voltage usually means a bad blower. No voltage means you need to find another problem. You did check the fuzes first, didn't you? :)
