I have an 860 Ford that?s overheating. Radiator is about a year old.
Removed thermostat to see if it made any difference and it did not.
This radiator looses a lot of coolant out the overflow tube. I can fill it
anywhere from full to 2 inches from the top and it starts running out of
the overflow as soon as you start the motor. Nothing leaking from
water pump & water looks like it?s circulating when I look at it when
the radiator cap is off so I?m guessing it?s not the water pump.
Replaced both hoses when radiator was replaced & ?flushed? the
block with garden hose while I was there. Have not tried operating
without the cap but might try that next. Anybody have any
suggestions?
Thanks(in advance),
Gary
