<DIV></DIV>&gt;I also had a problem with the electrical connection on top of the
<DIV></DIV>&gt;coolant tank coming loose, which resulted in full-right swing of the
<DIV></DIV>&gt;temp needle and blinking coolant light.&nbsp;&nbsp;I ended up wrapping the
<DIV></DIV>&gt;connector on the top with black electrical tape and I haven't had that
<DIV></DIV>&gt;problem since.&nbsp;&nbsp;I've also had problems with low coolant fluid level
<DIV></DIV>&gt;due to leaks which resulted in the same set of swinging needles and
<DIV></DIV>&gt;flashing lights.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I had similar power-loss problems due to low fuel pressure resulting
<DIV></DIV>&gt;from a hidden leak in my fuel delivery system.&nbsp;&nbsp;The one piece I had
<DIV></DIV>&gt;problems with a few times is that small hose that is on the other side
<DIV></DIV>&gt;of the firewall from the engine bay.&nbsp;&nbsp;This is the delivery side, not
<DIV></DIV>&gt;the return side.&nbsp;&nbsp;I also had the small piece of line leak on the fuel
<DIV></DIV>&gt;rail.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I'm not reading all the messages on the list, but hasn't Joy had a
<DIV></DIV>&gt;problem with the fuel delivery system for the last month?&nbsp;&nbsp;Did she
<DIV></DIV>&gt;ever verify the fuel pressure with a gauge?

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; Yes, the coolant light will flash steadily if there is air in the top of
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; the expansion tank (not the one behind the license plate-it's supposed
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; to have some air- the one to the left,&nbsp;&nbsp;The sensor is a little finicky,
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; but it's usually right. That doesn't mean it's hot in this case. Pretty
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; confusing, because the same light will be flashing when it's
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; overheating. If you're sure the coolant level is okay, just proceed
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; cautiously, keeping an eye on the temp gauge.

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; and the coolant light was on, though the engine was
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;cold.&nbsp;&nbsp;I stopped, turned the engine off, waited a bit, turned it on again,
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;and tried again.&nbsp;&nbsp;Now it wouldn't get above 2000 rpm or around 25 mph.&nbsp;&nbsp;I
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;made it to the top of the hill (pretty steep) and pulled over, where I am
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;now making coffee and waiting for the engine to cool down enough that I can
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;check the coolant.
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;I don't think it's a coolant problem, though.
