Bought this car a couple months ago .. and rad blew up in smoke and radiator fluid was bubbling out of the resevior.
So I replaced the rad . And therma stats. Completely new. Topped off the fluids as well. Car sat over night ran fine at a perfect temperature. Now when I start it will be fine, But 20 minutes into a drive it will over heat cause fan shuts off. So I pull over. Turn off the car and let it sit in shade. Turn on the car and put the AC on and it will start....with me moving the fan with a little push with the finger. but as soon as I hit a bump it will shut off and over heat again..and his problem keeps happening . Should I silicone the plug to the fan so it doesn't over heat ,? Or just buy a new fan ? 2004 v6 3.9L 40th anniversary .... any feed back is good feed back . Thanks
