OK I have a 89 four banger mutang and It just got a new electric fan a few moths ago. It runs great, but lately it has been almost over heating. The ar will make like a huffing sound and shake real bad after it starts (that is IF it starts) The fan is still on and it has basically new everything. Anyone know what maybe wrong???

woulda posted this in the 4 cylider forum but no one talks in there.
Thanks *haley*

Are you running your AC, or heater when you start it? Because that is a big load on a cold 4 cylinder engine. Just a thought?

Possibly a head gasket or intake manifold gasket. With a small leak.
