I don't remember if I reported my first one on this thread or not, but IC #1 went at 12,000 miles and was replaced by Tomball Ford (no 02 sensors or plugs replaced). IC #2 is now leaking with 19K on the odomoter. This is getting VERY old.

Cool

As I have posted on other threads, y'all might want to try adding a can of BG cooling system sealant to your i/c reservoir. I had a bad leak (the whole reservoir lost in 50 miles) and the BG stopped it immediately. My mechanic says it won't hurt your motor. Now I can wait for Ford's "fix" without sweating it.

Well I guess I get to join this elustrious group (though not my choosing)
Mine started last night 2" down.
Will wait for the FIX or engine replacement which ever comes first!!!!
17,799 miles
Question about adding BG cooling system sealent? If it seals it then you would rather go without getting a new I/C or are you hoping when the Fix-if ever gets here then yours will maybe start leaking, again? How does that work?
