The timing has needed fixing twice. The transmission has had to be rebuilt. It overheats when high speeds are reached. It has had too many things go wrong with it than I'd like to deal with.
All in all, I like this car, It is the cutest thing I have ever seen. I just can't deal with spending more money to fix it than I paid for it. It handles like a dream, but has no acceleration or speed. It also doesn't help that it is not 4x4.
We just bought a geo 92 for my daughter and it keeps overheating and we can't find the problem what was wrong with yours?
I finally found out what was causing my 92 Tracker to overheat - it was a collapsing heater hose, fortunately the top one. If your temperature gauge goes down when you accelerate then that's probably it.
I had an overheating problem and it turned out to be a sticking thermostat. That caused it to get very hot several times and ended up splitting a tube in the radiator. I replaced the radiator and rad cap and the problem still surfaced. Took a while to track down because the sticking was intermittent. A new thermostat and it hasn't happened since.
