I had a coolant leak on my 2008 Sport Trac where it was spewing coolant all over the floor. I had a small leak in the radiator fixed and the water pump completely replaced.
I check the big white reservoir constantly to make sure the coolant is full, but the mechanic told me what I really need to do is check the radiator when cold to make sure it is full with coolant. If not, pour the coolant directly into there, and not the reservoir.
Is this correct? Is it okay to put coolant directly into the radiator? I was only doing it to the reservoir.
