- 1996 Explorer XLT 4.0
Howdy ya'll,
My 1996 Explorer 4.0 XLT has a minor coolant leak coming from the passenger side of the engine compartment. I have looked on numerous parts sites and diagrams and I can't find the part number/name where it's leaking from. I've searched through other coolant leak threads here on the forum as well as parts lists on multiple websites and random part diagrams that come up in an images search. The part in question appears to be a sensor or valve junction point with multiple coolant hoses coming into it. I believe the plastic body of the part is cracked and it's letting coolant out. It only leaks when the engine is running.
It would be awesome if you guys could help me ID the part and let me know of anything to be cautious of when replacing it (the only thing I can think of right now is introducing air into the coolant system, which I assume will work itself out eventually).
Here you can see the coolant leaking:

Thanks!
