08 Ford Fusion 2.3 Overheating, NO HEAT

10

Asked by Whyyounowork Jan 19, 2019 at 11:35 AM about the 2008 Ford Fusion SE

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

So my fusion has been acting rather strange. I'll warm it up
and drive for about 5 minutes in the city and at a stoplight it
will start blowing cold air and eventually overheat and
coolant will leak from the reservoir. Most of the time if I
give it some gas or take off from said stoplight the temp
gauge will go back down and start blowing hot air again.
Happens mostly when under freezing temps.

Ed92626 It was the water pump. Changed the thermostat last night, then the water pump today. Bled the cooling system and now it seems to heat the cab and keep a consistent temp. Thanks for your input, it helped greatly!
