What's wrong with my truck? - 5
Ok so i filled my overflow tank a bit too much and i guess i didn't put the cap on all the way. I drove home from work and popped the hood to check coolant levels and too my surprise, the entire engine bay was covered. A few days went by and now my truck makes a terrible screeching noise while turning. (Just the smallest movement from my wheel makes the noise) there's also a bad screech when going over bumps or hitting potholes.
I was thinking, maybe the antifreeze ate away at the oil that makes it run smooth but some of the sound sounds like its under the car and not just under the hood.
I drive a 99 ford ranger. Does anyone know what the issue could be? I'd like to figure it out now before the snow comes.
Antifreeze may have got on your belts… See if belt is loose or burnt due to antifreeze making it slippery…
- Wrong sparkplug put in truck? I have a 93 ford ranger, for some reason thought it was a 97. Put sparkplugs in for a 97, not sure if that's bad or if the sparkplugs for the two years are pretty much the same. Been driving it around fine, just don't wanna do damage to it.
- What's wrong with the truck? I went for a ride with my grandfather yesterday. He told me to drive on the way back. I've driven this truck a lot so I know how it feels and drives. The first thing I noticed was that the steering was loose and shaky feeling (wheel moves with bumps). It's usually tight and very responsive. I also noticed the brake pedal felt kind of squishy instead of firm. What's wrong with this truck? It's a 2000 Ford Ranger 4WD.
- What do you think is wrong with my truck? I've a 2000 Ford Ranger and today for the first time it gave me trouble starting up. I had to crank it like three times before it actually started. The check engine light is on but I put coolant(and water) in it yesterday so it's not the coolant
