Thanks guys So for me it's just the top hose I think it is maybe cracked Anyways the hose is leaking is it possible to just get the hose Is there a name for the hose
Unbelievably un-mechanical. You do realize you dumped coolant all over the radiator right? Ever heard of a radiator drain pecock? What is up must go down in the system via gravity.
Could be that. Or in my case it's a water pump issue if your pully is slightly off center compared to the rest then it's definitely the water pump. Good luck!
I have same year and same engine, I’m trying to do a coolant flush, I have half the front end body disassembled and I still can’t find the coolant petcock. Anyone?
Thanx for the video guy... I didn't know it had a skid plate underneath there. It isn't my car it's hers but know I know what to look for and what to expect changing that housing out or simply the gasket and how to tell the difference in the replacement housing. Good job my man .
I had the exact same problem with my 2013 Fusion 2.0L ecoboost. The gasket had the same problem as yours and cost just under $3 US. It is easier to just drain the whole system. There is a red 1/4 turn drain on the drivers side of the radiator bottom hidden by the black plastic front cover.
How did you bleed the system when you refilled with coolant? Ford makuloco makes it seem like you need to venturi vacuum fill the thing since there is no bleed screw
Never lol. Make sure the front of the car is up higher than the rear. Keep yhe over flow tank cap off. Take off the small threaded cap from the black hardline and fill there. Run with both caps off with heater running full blast. Keep an eye on teml gauge. Shut off if starts to overheat. But keep topping off system if the system burps and shows it need more coolant.
I am noticing the coolant line in the reservoir very slowly dropping, but I don't see any leaks in the engine bay. One thing that I did noticed not too long ago was a burning plastic smell whenever I would turn on the heater. And that correlates with the time around when the coolant began to mysteriously disappear. Some say it's the heater core, but I have to find out where it's located to check. I also checked the engine oil and the level has remained the same and there's no sign that the coolant is going into the engine. The transmission shifts as it always has, so I seriously doubt the coolant is leaking into the transmission. Since I haven't noticed any change in the car's performance, I am not super worried...but I want to find and fix the leak without breaking my piggy bank.
Hey Wayne, if your coolant is low enough and not circulating through the engine properly, that could cause the engine temperature to rise. But you would need to know more about the problems and run some test to make sure it is the actual problem.
On my Ford Edge has the 2.0 liter ecoboost engine in it? And my light didn't turn on but I knew something was wrong. When my keep didn't work. I looked at my coolant reservoir and it's completely empty. And soon as you hit. Little bit high RPMs for about 15/22 seconds you'll see your coolant guage in your car go higher and higher until they hit the light to the turns on.
@@makebetter-homeandauto6831 what would make my lower water pump keep pumping after the engine is shut off we replaced the motor in my 2014 Ford fusion 1.5 echo boost
Wayne, I have a 2013 Ford Fusion. My “engine coolant over temperature light” came on-but it was only when the reservoir was bone dry. It was kinda scary. I ended up having a leak somewhere
