- 2001 Ford Explorer Sport
Hey guys, I have been a member since Jan 2012 and have gotten alot of good info from all of your post. But now I have a problem that I can't seem to find any answers. I have a 2001 Explorer Sport with a 4.0. That is pushing coolant into the expansion tank until it overflows. In the morning I drain the coolant out of the expansion tank (to bring down to cold fill level) put the coolant in the radiator till it is full. Then drive down the road about 30 miles open the hood and the expansion tank is full and air bubbling up through the coolant. No matter how well I burp the system, the same thng happens. Temperature gauge stays in mid range the whole time. No white smoke, exhaust does have alot of condensation. No coolant in oil. Coolant does look dirty, though. I did a compression check and all cylinders were between 150 and 160. The motor is remanufactured and has about 30,000 miles. Thermostat and radiator cap were just replalced.
Thanks
