Hello- my son got my Dad’s 2003 explorer and looking for guidance / experience in helping him do repairs….
His coolant is holding…..I wasted $60 in coolant…..b/c we replaced the t-connector which was broken…..and thought that was the issue….put 3 gallons of coolant in….drive it home and it was smoking again….coolant everywhere - zero coolant in resovoir…..where it’s supposed to be…..when I stopped and got out…..all of it was on the ground - I couldn’t see where it was leaking out? He did get into a fender bender and broke the headlight on passenger side….wondering if the radiator got punctured? How can I tell?
