Coolant in oil '97 4.6 lt.
Coolant in oil '97 4.6 lt.
F150 has had what I deem excess pressure in the coolant overflow. Until recently, I haven't seen any coolant leaks but have noticed that the coolant smells funny. Almost like gas or exhaust.
Last week there was coolant leaking out from the back end of the motor. Then one has the truck wouldn't roll over. Hydrolock, I believe it's called. The day after, the truck started and there was coolant in the oil.
My assumption is that one of the head gaskets is blown. I don't want to tear into the motor until I get a few opinions. I did get a code P0303 which is a cylinder #3 misfire. By the way, the truck has 170,000 miles on it.
Any help?
