1993 Chrysler Shadow from Mexico - Comments

Hello:

I write these message, because my Shadow presents the following fault.

I like too much this car, I take a lot of care of it, but the last week it began to "jump" themselves and to extinguish themselves. The cables of sparks plugs, sparks plugs, distributor, pump of gasoline, gasoline filter, were already reviewed. Right now we are with the electric system, and we did not find anything. If someone knows that it can be, I request to him that write me: p_mach1@yahoo.com. thanks.

Hello, I write from Mexico, recently I bought a shadow car 94, some days in the panel is on the light for "check engine", I want to know, what is the meaning? what should I check?I don't have an operation manual, please let me know your answer.

My e-mail is jaime.robledo@ge.com.

Thanks

Jim

I have a 1994 shadow 2.5 with a problem of heat gauge showing hot all the time when running. The heater does not give very much heat in the cold weather. I have replaced the head gasket, which showed cooler engine temperature for a while. The temperature is back up to hot again. The head has been re torqued, coolant checked etc. I live in an area that I need a heater that is better with winter temperatures around the -20 deg. mark for six months of the year.My return address is hassell@mackbc.com

To the guy with the "hot" Shadow, my first couple of guesses would be a bad thermostat, or more likely a clogged heater core. If the coolant has never been changed, you probably have a lot of scale and rust clogging the radiator passages, and clogging up the heater core. So, you don't get circulation through the engine and the coolant trapped in the block just gets hotter and hotter, even though no heat comes out of the heater. I hate to change my own coolant anymore because of the environmental concerns, or I would run a couple bottles of Prestone Superflush through it. However, if it's clogged it may be too far gone for that. You may have to take it to a garage, and have them do a pressure flush to blow some of that scale, rust, and gunk out. Once it's flushed out, and refilled with 50/50 anti-freeze and water, things should be going a lot better.

Hola me compre un dodge shadow (chrysler) 1993, les agradeceria que me digan donde puedo conseguir un manual del mismo dado que es usado y los otros dueños no tenian el manual. Tambian les comento que le tengo puesto un tubo de GNC (gas natural comprimido) lo cual confunde a la computadora del auto y a veces prende la luz de cheq ingene.

Espero poder comunicarme con otro propietarios de este vehiculo. muchas gracias
