Hello!! I own a 1989 Ford Probe GT Turbo 2.2L Stick Shift... I have had several people look at my car and i cant get any answers..
I took my car a couple miles away from home one day and apparently the radiator had a pretty large hole in it and lost most or if not all of the water out of it.. The temperature hand was at the top on the n (normal) but not in the red and the car shut down all on its own.. Well now it just trys to start but wont.. When you turn the key it turns over so the starter is good.. But the kicker is i can push start it and it drives fine.. it dont smoke, it still has lots of power.. The turbo still works.. but it just wont start.. does anyone have a clue if my car is dead or if i can fix it fairly cheap.. I love my car..
Any help is greatly appreciated.. and i have had someone check the starter.
