Hi all,
'89 16V turbo convertible has been overheating. It's fine on the highway, doesn't like to be putzing around at low speeds. Diagnosed this to the thermoswitch, as the fan doesn't come on (and did come on when shorted).
I notice in the Bentley that replacing the switch is no big deal, but it does ask you to drain the cooling system before replacing the switch. Is this move totally necessary? As one who does not have ready access to a hose, it would be a lot simpler to switch this part out in a few seconds and see if that fixes the problem!
Second question, I know the thermostat temp has to match the switch. Am I safe to assume a 92 degree thermostat on this car?
Thanks in advance!
