I was warming up my 1992 F150 351 block (finally back in a ford!) and left it running for 15-20mins. When I came back, my garage floor was covered with Coolant!!! Man I was soo pissed because the previous owner told me that there were no leaks what so ever.
What are the common problem areas?

Mann problem after problem. Im worried what might happen next.





Thanks,

first problem, you didnt let the truck idle and check for leaks yourself when you bought the truck...

second, a common area is the waterpump, if it starts leaking it needs repalced.

 

That happened to me. Just got done polishing and waxing the truck a week after I got it. Pulled it out of the shop to let it warm up, the water pump let go and douched all over the parking lot.

 

YES!!! I found the leak!
It was coming from the by pass hose! Man! such a cheap fix and easy fix. I even took pictures.
Now I gotta fix my 4x4 problem.

Ill post tomorrow.
