1993 Mercury Topaz GS review from North America
"Good if you are a mechanic"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear struts failed, A/C failed.
Passenger side window motor failed, exhaust needed parts replaced.
CAR DIES WHEN HOT. The initial problem is it would not start after running for a while 15 miles or so, until the next day... then it would run fine, till it dies again.
Now, it will only run until it gets warm and dies until enough time passes till cooled and will start again. I have replaced the Ignition Control Module on the distributor. I have also replaced the Camshaft Positioning Sensor (as there is no Camshaft sensor to replace). There is spark and fuel at all times. Please help... any thoughts???
