2006 Explorer XLT 4.0 LTR
Hey guys new here. Looked through some of the old threads couldn’t get a good answer for what I’m trying to do. Got a 2006 Ford Explorer XLT 2wd 4.0. Over the past few days the radiator, water pump, thermostat as well as the lower and upper housing and ECT sensor has been replaced. I can drive it around for about 10 mins before starts overheating and the fan starts working severe overtime. Wanted to know if you all have any suggestions
 






I take it that it was overheating before all the replaced parts?
 






Check the coolant for HC's.. Maybe a head gasket leaking combustion gasses into the cooling system.
