So a buddy of mine who used to work for Ford, helped me pin point the drain to the CCRM. I finally changed the CCRM with a slightly used one from E-bay (mistake? ).<br /><br />I let the car idle for at least 15 minutes with the radiator cap off, and I see that it is begin to bubble and shoot out, as if the coolant has no where to go. <br /><br />You think this has to do with the CCRM? or just time for a new reservoir? <br /><br />Any advice is much obliged. <br />Thank you,<br /><br />Raj<br /> <br /> <small>[ 2015-02-16, 04:17 PM: Message edited by: BLK35th ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Egocentric</b> <br /><small>Member # 9529</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2015,1,17,12,37,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> When it reaches operating temperature, it begins to spill out the the radiator cap outlet? <br /><br />Have you left the cap on and waited for the fans to come on (if they do?)<br /><br />Has it been bled properly? <br /><br />When coolant warms up, it expands and pressurizes within the radiator system the cap needs to be in place. <br /><br />Let the car idle, radiator cap on, fan on HOT @ Maximum. Open the bleed screw, allow it to bleed the air out of the system until a steady stream of coolant is spewing out. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>BTLD GT</b> <br /><small>Member # 5229</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2015,1,17,14,57,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> when the engine is cold fill the tank until its at the cold fill line then cap the system. run car at around 1500rpm with the heater on high until u have heat coming out and u reach running temp and the fans cycle at least once. <br /><br />Daniel<br /> <br /> <small>[ 2015-02-17, 02:58 PM: Message edited by: BTLD GT ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>BLK35th</b> <br /><small>Member # 4685</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2015,1,18,19,50,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> ok, sweet.
