fluid flush?
I have a 1999 f-150 sport 4x4 with the 4.6l engine. I just turned 40,000 miles on it today (tear tear). I am wondering if i should have all the fluids flush before summer. Would it be a good time to get all the fluids flushed now? I do not think it has been flushed before because i bought it used last sept. and it only had 30,000 miles. It doesnt get used to pull much if anything. What do u professionals think?

coolent flush
I have found that it's good maintenance to do a coolant fush every other year. Once a year won't hurt but it's probably overkill. I recommend just plain water during flushing, not harsh chemicals. Try adding Redline Waterwetter each time. This will help keep your heads cooler & lube the waterpump. Pep Boys usually carries the Redline products.
Have fun.
