Acura 97 acura 3.2 tl. where is the coolant temperature sensor located?

What does all this have to do with a political party??

Sounds like a mild fuelling fault, start by replacing the cheapest part - The ECU coolant temp sensor.

This sensor is located in the thermostat housing

the temperature sensor for the coolant must be faulty or the connector is shorted this is usually on or next to the thermostat housing and it screws on. check the connector and make sure is in good shape if so replace the sensor and disconnect the battery for a few seconds.

For 1996 Acura TL 2.5L PFI 5cyl the Vehicle Speed Sensor - Location is located mounted on transmission.

Hope this helps (remember to rate this answer).

since you didnt say what size motor the first is 3.2 and the second is for the other motor

Before ordering or installing fans I would buy and change your Coolant Temperature Senor on top of the engine block. It plugs in to the ECU and tells the fan when to kick the fans on. If that does not work you also have a temperature on the bottom of the radiator, known as your fan switch.

Follow the upper radiator hose the the mototr where it connects is the housing for the thermostat.

how can i fix a overheating on a acura tl 1997 3.2

you need to have the fuel pressure checked at the engine and then check the line for flow

Many possibilities. 1st check coolant level when cold, make sure it's at the proper level, and a 50/50 mix (half water half coolant). Is the engine temp getting too high, or is it actually 'boiling over' with evidence of steam and coolant loss? Don't drive it when the engine temp gets too high, you can cause other serious problems. When the temp gauge starts to climb, check under the hood and see if the cooling fan is going on. It's possible the fan is not operating due to sensor or switch failure (they signal the fan to go on and off as required), or it can be a fan motor that's shot, a thermostat that is not opening properly, a radiator plugged up with rust and corrosion from neglecting cooling system maintenance. So as you can see, there are many reasons for your car to overheat. Answer my questions above, and I'll try to help you pinpoint the cause.
