Update on Motor. I was changing the oil yesterday as maintance. No water in it. I will check the transmission. Did not know water could get in the trans. How?
Could a bad thermostat cause this? I made a mistake in my post. The temp guage is moving from 80 to 100, not 90. I am ordering a thermostat and will change it just because. Any other ideas on this?
As for the windows, thought they were vaccuum controlled. My bad. Will check fuses today.
thanks

I refill the overflow and it stays steady at 80 for another 600 to 1000 miles. A wonderful little game. I can not find the leak yet.
