Hi.

my name is Dave and I have a 1993 Mazda MX-6 with a 2.5L V6 and 5 speed manual transmission. Every time I pull off in 1st gear or the car is sitting at idle, it heats up. The car has never overheated on me and this condition is particularly strange because i dont experience any changes in performance. Currently the car has a bad exhaust (no cat converter, and the manifold-to-header pipe weld is broken) to avoid buying the wrong part, I was hoping for a professional opinion.

thanks.

Ok so I need to know when it gets warm is the engine fan coming on? Get back to me with that and we will go from there.
