- 2001 Ford Explorer Sports
Hello All,
I am a 48 year old novice at truck repairs. My 2001 Ford Explorer Sports Trac is overheating. A mechanic friend and myself replaced the thermostat and got all the air out of the line.
The resevoir was filled with gunk. We refilled the radiator and for a few days it was running fine. Then it began to overheat again and when I parked it and check the radiator, it was near empty.
Does anybody have any ideas of what I should look for or what can be causing this problem?
I would appreciate any advice, because I am almost to the point of taking it to a garage.
Thanks,
Craig
