I am having problems starting the car as well as the fan runs at all times. There are posts that state that the temp sensor is bad but would a bad coolant temp sensor cause the motor to surge? The car can be cruising down the road and it will surge forward and I have to hit the brakes to control my speed. It happened even in park the engine would suddenly rev up to 3000rpm for a few seconds and then drop back down to idle again.
