Ford TempoThe Ford Tempo is an American-built two-door coupe and four-door sedan produced by the Ford Company from 1984 to 1994. It was the successor to the Ford Fairmont, and was replaced in 1994 by the Ford Contour. The Tempo was part of a rejuvenation by Ford to offer more environmentally friendly, fuel efficient, and more modern styled models to compete with the imports.
I have a 1992 Tempo with a 2.3, 5 speed. I think my thermostat is bad because the car does not heat up unless idling for awhile. I am not sure where it is located. I think it is on the right side of the engine. Any help is much appreciated.
follow the hose coming of the top radiator conection to the engine.
it eventualy attaches to the water outlet kinda silver colored.
remove the hose and unbolt that and you will find the thermostat take note to which way it came out.
