Author Topic: 98 gt 4.6l cooling help needed blk67stang ¯ Member # 6234 posted                              I looked at the reservoir and it looked low so i filled it up and started the car. After it was running for about 10 mins I saw a little water leaking from the exhaust and a tiny bit of smoke.Also i felt the lower hose and coolant in the reservoir, it was not warm at all but the top hose was hot. Any ideas? -------------------- ford is a way of life Posts: 214 | From: bayarea | Registered: Nov 2005  |  : jareds98gt ¯ Member # 7701 posted                              did the temp guage move?? did the thermostat open? -------------------- 1997 Saleen S281 #192 Posts: 269 | From: nor cal | Registered: Jun 2007  |  : 302n/a ¯ Member # 1465 posted                              sounds like it could be a headgasket issue -------------------- Raiders A's Warriors Sharks Posts: 2605 | Registered: Jun 2002  |  : blk67stang ¯ Member # 6234 posted                              Easy fix the thermostat was stuck. -------------------- ford is a way of life Posts: 214 | From: bayarea | Registered: Nov 2005  |  :
