4.0 SOHC Motor (kinda new.. I replaced it myself)
Guys,
A little history... then the issue.
It was a HOT day and I was driving her pretty hard. The coolant had been boiling out (not sure from where), but I would have to refill it with coolant about twice a day. This went on for about 2 weeks. Then finally it overheated like hell and cut off on me. I let it sit for about 6 months now I am finally trying to weed out this issue.
I can start it fine... It turns over and runs fine for about 15 mins. After that however, the engine starts to steam anti-freeze out of what appears to be the Fuel Injectors... I am getting mixed diagnoses from mechanics... granted I havent taken it anywhere yet, but they all seem to say either Head Gasket or lower intake gasket... I was wondering if this sounds familiar to anyone ?
Thanks in advance,
MikeX
