I just got this mustang a couple days ago, its a 96 GT vert and I noticed that the heat was on cause i could feel it coming out of the vents only the heat wasn't one, it was coming from the engine. is there anything that can explain this. I'm going to check fluid levels but nothing indicated that it needed to be done. I think he may have also used a cleaner on the engine before we bought it. but I really have no idea what might cause this.

Does the temperature gauge seem to be working? Does it overheat?
