Mileage? If your cars engine has high mileage there are many things it could be. First I would try a major tune up! Cap, Rotor, Wires, Plugs, Oil change, Oil filter, Fuel filter, Fuel injector serivce etc. If your gas milage does not get better, you most likely have an injector or some other fuel system problem. altough their are other things that can cause this problem.
Take it to a garage. It can leak at several places and there are seals that can be installed to stop the leaks.
It's possible a seal has broken. Find where it leaks from, could be pump, hose or steering ram. Then replace part.
The same thing happened on my 1997 Mercury sable. I bought a tool and spliced a new section of brake line at this location what happens is this. section of brake line is prone to road salt staying in this location due to the way it is attached to the car. this quick fix has worked for about 4 years and cost me only the cost for the brake line and couplers to attach the old and new sections together. Be sure to test for leaks before driving and watch for leaks. re bleed brakes after repair. Hope this helps -Loren Pickerill
Is it leaking from the side by the coolant reservoir?
all vehicles burn oil as long ass its not a excessive amount all the time check for leaks park over clean cardboard to see if your leaking it just in case
Many possibilities. Clogged catalytic converter, vacuum leaks, incorrect spark plugs, defective ECU, etc. Take it to a Ford/Merc dealer.
If you're popping your bones i think you should be more worried about excessive bone marrow leaks and excruciating pain.
No. The expansion tank will not let coolant drain into the radiator. Doing this will cause the whole system to be clogged up. WHO POSTED THIS MISSINFORMATION. OPEN A REPAIR MANUAL BEFORE YOU ANSWER QUESTIONS.
Excessive noise, shudder in the steering wheel when turning it in either or both directions, leaks. IF YOU CAN TURN YOUR WHEEL LEFT TO RIGHT WITH OUT IT BINDING AND THERE ARE NO LEAKS AT THE RACK THEN MORE THAN LIKELY YOU RACK AND PINION ARE OK
Cannot check fluid level. Factory filled and sealed with a preset amount. If there are no leaks, do not worry. If it leaks, after necessary repairs, drain and refill with correct amount.
if you have no oil leaks check to see if your exhaust is oiled up at rear ,stick finger in tail pipe and if oil is in exhaust this is a sign of worn pistons or rings
Could be a few things, is it a small amount or a large amount? Check where it is coming from, when you remove the cap you are depressurizing it, I would check the hoses for small leaks that or the drain pin as well could be loose.
