Stopped Knocking Noise ... But ... Now In TROUBLE !! December 04, 2016, 12:51:19 PM My Wife's Cougar ('86 XR-7 Turbo) was making a Low-Frequency Rattle. She asked around, up here, and found out that a Water Pump was the most-likely cause.(She is, still, having trouble with the HVAC (No Heat) and I thought I would replace the Thermostat, with a Hotter One, while I was Replacing the Water Pump.)I got both items replaced and went to check for Coolant Leaks. ... something 'odd' seems to have happened when I tried to crank the engine ...The Engine was running like a sewing machine when she parked it on Friday Afternoon, and I started this process on Saturday Morning.After letting all of the RTV Set/Cure - I went outside, this morning, to tighten and check everything. When I turn the engine over it will start... run and will Idle Up.But it feels like it has a 'Miss-Fire' and, when Idled Down ... the engine stalls and quits.-- any ideas ? -- Quote Selected
