My Probe has a tough idle after head gasket job done. Had a new aluminium radiator fitted recently as well. Full service done.
Had a problem with the idle control valve years ago. Any suggestions? 1996 2.5v.

Radiator needed urgently
I need a radiator for my Probe 24v 2.5 1996. Tried everywhere but can’t source one. Had the head gaskets done and fitted a second hand rad which wasn’t any good as it’s leaking.

Thanks
Steve

Re: Head Gaskets
Hi As far as I can gather it’s this. If exhaust gases are present, the test fluid will “sniff” the gases as they are pulled through the fluid. If the blue fluid turns yellow or green, exhaust gases are leaking into the coolant system, and a head gasket repair is required. If fluid remains blue, exha...
