138,x.. miles
Car is now at my mechanic who is a friend and a very knowledgeable Ford mechanic ...owns several ..
Issue: New radiator in 2 weeks ago- drove hour back home and once off the highway temp went hot at lights - by time I got home almost hit red - shut off
and coolant leaked out- towed to shop
needed to replace heater hose(s) - today's diagnosis is cant figure out ( yet) why it starts off normal temp- but goes hot - No blown head gasket .
He will run more tests tomorrow but I'm curious if anyone can point out any "quirky" coolant things to check on Aerostars...
Thanks.
