Thinking outside the box
I have been struggling with cooling problems in the Sebring for several months. A new radiator helped it along until the end of May. The shop installed a fan, but unfortunately a short test drive told me there was more to the story. The mechanics figured it was gasket problems, that the extreme heat had warped the gaskets, so it was in for a couple weeks while those were replaced. Got the car back and a short test drive told me there was more to the story. (sorry for the repetition). Took it back to the shop. The mechanics discovered that one of the jerry-rigged o rings was allowing the coolant to leak, and consequently the car was overheating. They ordered 2 factory o rings that will be in tomorrow. There may be more, the rest of the story. Stay tuned.
