First off, 92 16v turbo convertible.
Drove home from Christmas, everything was fine. When we got home the cooling fan kept running and running. Next morning the battery was dead. Found the technical bulletin about replacing the fan relay, which I did today. Did some looking under the hood while I was there and found the nipple on the head was broken, and that the tubing was gone.
Today I replaced the nipple and put a new bushing in, got some vacuum tubing from a parts place and replaced everything. I knew the battery would be low, so I hooked up the jumper cables to my girlfriend's Jeep.
The car will start, but it won't stay running. It'll run for a minute or so, then it drops away, tries to keep going, but eventually dies. Is this the battery, or do I have a vacuum leak or something even more serious?
Thanks, I need all the help I can get.
