I own a 1998 3.8L V-6 stang w/160k miles & have recently had an issue w/the engine running warm. It hasn't overheated but it runs poorly w/the A/C running on hot days or in rush hour traffic. Otherwise, it stays cool at night and if I don't run the A/C during the day. I replaced the thermostat and had the radiator flushed along w/an A/C check & serpentine tensioner replacement. I've been told to replace the water pump because of a "whining noise" coming from the engine compartment. Does anybody have any suggestions? I would appreciate your input. Thanks
