Multi part question

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

okie my clutch fan is going out and its running all the time. even when the motor is cold... thats what a fellow FC mechanic and owner tould me.
So what could happen and the worst that could happen?

i didn't know that the motor wasn't mounted right, opps my bad. its a little higher than normal. What possible long term effects could there be ? I have all new mounts the mazda comp ones. in the engine bay on the tranny and in the rear end.

also he tould me the cooling intake the (elbow) to the water pump is turning brown. from its usual black. he said its going bad. what could happen and the worst that could happen? i know OVERHEATING IS BAD FOR A FC!!
but i never over heated the motor.

i need to know. cuz i took my smog pump out and let him barrow it, hes a cool local guy. and since the car is apart i might as well replace these things while Im puting back the smog pump.

w in t f is a smog pump?

I must do a SOY'ch for this part. Got a part #?

Are you talking about the fan clutch or the fan relay?

Make sure you rent or buy a pressure pump to test out your cooling system's weak point(s). Perhaps it is time to replace something.

No worries on the motor mount issue. Might want to get a ETD though to smooth things out a bit.
