Same procedure worked on my Fusion with 2.5L engine after doing it three times, third time is the charm. Thanks Auto Repair Guys😁✅👍

[@ademworthwent1168]

Man u guy. U have been the single most helpful guy in my life for the past 2 years, as u just so happen to do cars i needed the help with. Bravo, i would love to hang out with u. I would learn so so much

[@eyeorewolf]

I typically just leave the radiator (coolant tank) cap off and let the car idle and add coolant as it's drawn down. This makes it easier for the air to escape because atmospheric pressure is lower than the cooling system pressure.

[@kenhood5003]

I did what you said and it worked. Thank you

Going to flush my Edge this weekend. This was helpful, thanks!

[@billyjones9045]

Your edge has the same motor as my explorer ..3.5 or 3.7...search water pump problem

[@bigggestjoe]

Hi @Autorepairguys, please I have a ford edge 2008 that is doing overheating in Nigeria and also consume more gasoline with little miles, please how do I resolve this issue, please your response means a lot cause have spent a lot and the situation is still the same. I already change the fan and remove the thermostat.

[@turboflush]

Is the coolant supposed to flow from the small tube in the coolant reservoir?

[@michaelaudreyjustthe2ofus885]

Just leave the cap off and let it run. The air will purge as it circulates. Cap off, heat on, run till operating temp. Done.

[@g8gtatlman483]

worked for my edge too

[@richlininger4349]

Doesn’t work on these particular cars

[@noepadilla6688]

Gonna try this.

[@nydariapeterson4017]

Are you sure

[@DirtySlim7923]

Works perfectly. It just takes time for the thermostat to open up.... Did this on my girlfriend's mkx and heat works great now.

[@dianalane1655]

Do I need to bleed the system if I'm just replacing the coolant only

[@kenhood5003]

If everything goes good do I take the cap off to let the air out even if it's at the correct level the next day

[@charlieryan1736]

Thanks for making this helpful video

[@ddb722]

It worked great thank you

[@peteygnyc]

What digital thermometer did you use? It isn't in the description on your site.

[@macker0077]

I'd like to know the best way to DRAIN the system. I opened the drain cock on the radiator, but only got just over 4 liters of fluid out. My owners manual says it takes 11.1 Litres of fluid and I was only able to put back in the amount I took out?

[@40yeartrucker25]

Same here to holds 12 Qts and only got 5 Qts out.

[@macker0077]

@@40yeartrucker25 I'm thinking the only solution is to do another drain and re-fill to try and improve the coolant quality, similar to what you have to do when draining the transmission fluid on this vehicle. Not sure how else you can get the majority of the old fluid out? I guess you could disconnect the lower rad hose, add a garden hose to the coolant reservoir, then run the vehicle while you fill the reservoir simultaneously with the garden hose and let it run till the fluid coming out the lower rad hose is clear? Only issue with this, you now have city water in your cooling system vs. distilled water/coolant mix.....

[@40yeartrucker25]

Can't have any hard water with the yellow antifreeze . Next summer I will drain and fill with a 50/50 mixed with distilled water may be twice.

[@macker0077]

@@40yeartrucker25 definitely not ideal (city water). I wonder if taking it into a shop that has an anti-freeze recycle system might be an alternative, though you may not be getting the Ford Spec. anti-freeze? I bought the pre-mix Motrocraft anti-freeze (3 jugs) and have 1 and 3/4 jugs left. I may end up doing it the way you are planning....

[@Hustlegang313]

Just changed waterpump on a 2010 mkx...it wont stop over heating.....do i need to burn the system????? Coolant leaked in the engine we cleaned as good as possible....changed the pump it ran good for a hour and started over heating

[@hectorj9269]

Hi i have a 2008 lincoln mkx temp sensor go up like is hot and i turn of turn on and go in regular temperature but on the morning stars up good afer driver for 20 to 30 minutes don’t star right away i have to to put the key 2 or 3 times forward and a the 4i starter star fine what you think that’s going bad

[@ruben2772]

I have a question ? Did the explorer reach the gas station?

[@mehdijari2407]

Good work Thank's my freind

[@mikebrock1965]

Does this procedure work with the 3.5 and 3.7 V6 in Mazdas?

[@Hustlegang313]

So i need the car to be cold???? Not hot....like how cold over night cold or normal temp??

[@boofer875]

Why does nobody use the bleed hose located by the battery/throttle body? It's the safest, easiest and the right way.

[@corjay]

Bc there is no bleed hose on these v6 3.5L/3.7L

[@melverladuan4048]

Not all cars have that bleeding hose

[@frankbayer3787]

Good video

[@jeffb706]

During the first step of starting the vehicle. Nothing drained is from my reservoir. It's still full. I've tried starting it and ramping it up more than once. Are we trying to get the engine to a certain temperature for a valve to open or what's the purpose of this step?

[@stevew1268]

Jeff B this is for after you do a radiator flush to fill up the entire system

[@kriswilliams5161]

🤭

[@frankbayer3787]

Thks

[@alexyakobchuk4785]

Remember too you gotta drain and vacuum the coolant from the rear too, vehicle is equipped with a rear radiator

[@seabeeeff]

Huh?

[@martinezjose7140]

Is this the Same for a 2001 ford escape 3.0?

[@1a9r7t]

mismo procedimiento que los ford focus?

[@pedrowalter]

Can't mix coolant types

[@40yeartrucker25]

Yellow is compatible

[@ee7968]

How much fluid does it need after the flush in an ford edge/mkx? does anyone know?

[@peteygnyc]

Unill it's full.

[@macker0077]

CHeck your owners manual. My 13 MKX says 11.1 Liters....or roughly 3 jugs of coolant.

[@pedroulloarivera5184]

[@bossmoneystreet3589]

WHY YOU DIDN'T CHECK THE HEAT ON THE DRIVER SIDE THAT'S WHAT WE WAS WAITING FOR TO SEE IF BOTH SIDES ARE BLOWN HEAT 😔😔😔💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

[@Jayvone1000]

That's not what coolant does. If you're vehicle is only blowing heat on one side it's one of the actuators that controls cold/hot.

Por favor sub español. Urge por favor

[@Brownnproud91]

Que nececitas saber

[@elitep3434]

Todo jaja

[@austin3626]

Ok

[@turboflush]

Setting the heat " both sides" does nothing. Leave passenger numbers blank. The driver side will operate both when the passenger side is off. The only reason to set the passenger side is if (example) the driver wants temp at 77 and passenger wants at 69. Its a comfort thing.

[@williammitchell8247]

This is not the correct coolant for this system... it is suppose to be the Motor craft orange or an equivalent orange coolant, NOT GREENISH YELLOW!

[@mikeschiavoni5973]

You mean,the coolant that corodes the engine and turns in slime every 20k miles?

[@williammitchell8247]

@@mikeschiavoni5973 Which one are you claiming turns to slime?

[@williammitchell8247]

@al carr I have no idea what you just tried to say. I don't care about brand, read my entire comment. I have a '13 flex with the exact same type of motor as this edge, it has 90k+ miles on it and I keep the manufacturers recommended coolant in it. That coolant is the Motor Craft Orange or an equivalent orange coolant.

[@mikeschiavoni5973]

@@williammitchell8247 the orange stuff. Gm, ford, that stuff was terrible. Gone for good now i think.

[@williammitchell8247]

@@mikeschiavoni5973 Unless by "gone for good" you mean they no longer produce cars that use it, then you would be wrong. I have a car that calls for this with 90k miles on it and I have never once run into the "slime" issue that you mentioned. In fact, I have 2 cars that call for it. The other has 180k miles on it.

[@billyjones9045]

Motor sounds like shi* like all fords

[@hemnn6533]

Are suitable add green coolant. If coolant in my car yellow

[@jasonmckeaigg9143]

Never do it that way...ever💩

[@lukeWiz44]

Perhaps you have a suggestion as to the right way?

[@RjctdEK]

wtf never rev the fuckn. car like this shit head fill to full everything on how leave the cap off if it sucked the coolant and it's at operating temp idle it at like 2000 for about 2-3 minutes you'll hear the fan come on and meaning thermostat opened if the fuid lowered add some more and just let it idle until you hear the fans turn on about 5 times put the cap on and see if it gets above normal operating temp more likely it wont and go for test drive and should be good
