Well...I was drivin around the other day...and I noticed my car was running alittle warmer than normal. I got out and checked it...and then heard a noise... went and got some advice and the guy Guessed that the noise was the smog pump...that's been capped off..and I guess the valves jacked up or somethin...so I'm gettin rid of the smog pump now. The runnin-too-warm part...(the guy guessed) was the clutch fan. This sound right???

Then I was driving home yesterday from work...got in the car...rolled down the window and drove home. Got home and tried rolling up the window..and Nothin. I took it to my dad's mechanice today and he had to..rebuild/fix the window motor. Then he goes to move it..and it doesn't start.
The damn fuel pump went out..so I had to get a new one of those..and then he put it in.
Now I've noticed I've lost quite a bit of power from a stop. I don't think it'd be the fuel pump (should increase alittle..maybe..right?:S) But I was thinkin maybe cuz it's running a lot warmer than normal...

Would it be the clutch fan?? or could it be a thermostat..or what?:S Also...if I were going to get a new fan...which one should I get? Clutch Fan... Flex Fan or Electric Fan???

Make sure to upgrade your alternater if you havent already before you put in an electric fan.

First what size fuel pump did you put in the car?
Second have you changed the fuel filter?
Put in a 180 thermo good upgrade anyways
