Hi im having several issues with my 2000 ford explorer.
1. One night TONS AND TONS of white smoke came from my exhaust.
2. It stoped doing it so bad and only does it a few times a day just a little not a lot.
3. My engine got hot for the first time in 10 months.
When my engine got hot i came home. I had been driving around town for about 40 mins
so when i came home opened the hood and saw that i was halfway full on my anti-freeze/coolent
so i filled it up and toped it off. I walked away for about 5 min. Came back and it was halfway down
again. So i was like what the hell is going on. Nothing was leaking on the bottom of the car. Where did it go? The other day my trans fluid was low refilled that...
Umm did an oil change 2 weeks ago.
Changed spark plugs about a month ago. All 6.
Flushed the radiator last week to clean it out and put fresh coolent in.
Also something weird never heard before.
After engine was shut off i opened hood and heard liquids not shure of what still moving everywhere never heard that don't know what it means.
People have said maybe my head gasket is blown. Which it may be not shure.
I also checked the oil dipstick while truck was running to see if water was in oil.
Found about 4 tiny super tiny bubbles of water i guess it was super tiny 4 white bubbles.
Not shure what to do. Not shure what it is either. My check engine light is on.
It had a new transmission put in last year. New water pump. Check engine light is not bleaking.
I have tried to hook it up to a computer the car and no readings are coming up.
Like it won't work. If your a mechanic put a star * next to your comment. Like i said im not shure what to think of it. Oil pressure is fine.
Get back to me asap please.
P.S. HAD A MASSIVE SUPER SHAKE when i started it the other day leaving school. Like it was shaking hard as hell. Then it never did that again. The startup on it is rough once in a blue moon. Any ideas what the shaking may be? Thank You
