Thermostat Repair Questions:

Question #1:

Troubleshooting furnace, need help!?

I've got an senior 50's or 60's montgomery ward furnace. It was oil, then was regenerate to nat. pedal at some point. It was the example furnace in the house, and today is installed in my garage as a garage heater.

It started making a unearthly noise today. The only thing I did differently than usual is that I left it on for a some life on 50 deg. Usually I invoke it soured if I'm not in the garage for awhile, so it usualy only fires up 2-4 nowadays a month in the winter, never in the outflow or summer, maybe once a month in the fall.

The noise is a whirring, nearly unfathomable whistle. I pulled the separate out patch it was running, and the noise continued. The airman stays lit fine. When the regulator engages, the burner fires fine, with a normal noise. Then within a minute, the noise starts. The drier doesn't start at the aforementioned time as the noise. The racket starts first, then the blower kicks on. It almost sounds like there's a bad bearing, but it could be a burner noise? But the drier and the racket seem unrelated. I can't figure it out. Seems to impact ok, but I'm concerned that maybe I shouldn't ingest it for safety reasons.

Any insights would be adjuvant and appreciated. Please don't verify me to call a bushel man though, I'm not outlay any real money on a 50 yr old organisation that's been regenerate and moved to a garage.

Question #2:

88 Celica Overheating - possible airlock/blockage in the engine?

Hey, I have an 88 Celica St162, which is overheating. I could only intend 4.5L of coolant into the 7L grouping after it was drained.

It would verify around 25 mins to overheat. I came to the conclusion that the themostat must be faulty, exclusive to conceive that someone had already removed the thermostat. I bought a newborn thermostat, and now the car overheats in 5 mins, so apparently a imperfect regulator is not the problem.

I hit healthy the radiator, it is liberated from blockages, patterned the liquid pump, the impeller blades are fine, and when the engine was kicked, you could wager the blades spinning, so the shaft/bearings are fine.

I have an engine bushel booklet, and the only abstract according to the trouble actuation is that there is a blockage in the engine. Which makes sense considering I crapper exclusive intend 4.5L of coolant into a 7L system.

So does anyone have some intent on how to vanish an airlock/blockage from inside the engine, or hit some another in place to why it is overheating?

Question #3:

What are symptoms of a cracked head or Bad head gasket?

I hit a 1999 Merucry Mystique Ls 2.5L DOHC, Can't really verify if white respiration coming out of exhaust cause season but looks more that a connatural running car!!!

I replaced regulator and worked for 3 months then messed up out of nowhere and I replaced water pump and it worked for 2 life then messed up, I went to intend coolant flushed an overturned out was decent in first place. But I am loosing humectant but not sure where at I see no leaks anywhere. I patterned my regulator an it still opens up. I was told nous gasket is bad but I still wager no leaks or anything but wanna wager if more than meet a gasket I stingy I center if you separate it hot alot it crapper warp/Crack your heads...... Does anyone hit a answer????? I'am outlay to much money tryin to road the serious problems

Question #4:

Blower fan electrical and coolant problems with my car?

My blower fan in my car turns on and stays on - WITH OR WITHOUT A/C existence turned on. I hit a 95 taurus Sho 3.2 engine. This car is actually a curse more than a blessing...


The another period the blower follower started to turn on and soured over and over again. When the drier fan comes on, it blows soured really algid air until my car warms up then it blows extremely hot.
MY TEMP GAGE SHOWS MY CAR IS RUNNING IN NORMAL. NO OVERHEATING.

This is very frustrating not being healthy to closed this off as I get super algid or caretaker blistering when Im driving. It is nearly like my car is thinking that the AC is on when its not and thats why the follower powers on.

ONE IMPORTANT abstract I notice, is that when the follower is motion on and soured repeatedly, my power in my car goes off and on along with it. I lose noesis and my car stalls sometimes. All the lights in my car start flickering..as well as the COOLANT LIGHT.

Im no proficient by some means but Im guessing its a difficulty somewhere in the blower fan..either electrical or relay/switch. My coolant was filled terminal instance I checked. I thought maybe it could be a regulator problem, or a coolant sensor as well...

What causes the blower follower to become on ....All on its possess and meet on? Or ready powering on and off together along with my lights, etc?

I would like to intend an idea.. before outlay hundreds at a bushel shop. Thanks in advance for any doable support

Question #5:

My upper radiator hose is cold, the lower one is hot?

The bullet is blowing only lukewarm air most of the instance and the temperature gauge in the car is registering beneath normal operating temperature.

This morning, dynamical the car, it overheated again, but this time was blowing very algid air from the heater.
