1995 Mercury Mystique overheating Please Help
My 1995 Mystique is overheating. I've had a new theromastate put in, and the mechanic said the head gaskets and everything else looked to be fine. That was 1 weeks ago, now the car is overheating again. I've put some "stop leak" in and that worked for about 1 week. I've been told that is the water pump, but I don't know where to find it, or even how to get to it. The car manuel does not show me the engine or anything, but where to put in fluids.
I know that you all are thinking is this person stupid, but no not stupid, just igorent to the fact that I don't work on cars much. I've had to learn several things about cars and truck since my father died and I'm a woman whom just had double fusin back surgery 5 months ago. I have been under the car 2 times trying to fix it, but now I'm at a loss. I could really use some information where I could find out where the water pump is and how to replace it. I've been researching the internet for help, but so far have not had any luck. Please help, Lawbj37 |

Get a Haynes manual for your car. They are not to expensive. You will find step by step instructions on how to make repairs. If you have an idea what the water pump looks like, it is attached to one the pulleys. Look at all the pulleys the belts ride on.
