Hey guys, I have a 2002 Ranger 2WD 3.0L MFI OHV 6cyl, and was wondering if you could help identify a part that has been leaking. I am a broke college student that cant afford a repair shop, so any advice for fixing this would be great. There is an awful leak coming from under a temperature sensor. I have a picture of the sensor, a video of the leak, and then a picture of the part an AutoZone guy thinks it might be.
Hose that its leaking from Recommended Part Sensor top
Its called Ford Ranger 3.0l Coolant elbow, part number F77Z-18599-AA, looks like this: https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/lckAA...3gq/s-l400.jpg
Heads up, Dorman sells this part cheaper but...............sensor threads may not be correct so won't work
It is a Common part to rust out on 3.0ls if coolant wasn't changed on time
Pain to replace because you have to loosen and move brackets so you can screw it out and new one back in
Yeah, I replaced it last night. I took it to a shop and had the guy tell me what the part was. It was actually the one on the left with the plug in the top. Relatively cheap fix, but I hated every minute of it. I got the Dorman Heater hose fitting (47993) because AutoZone didn't have the other one. It didn't fit perfectly, we had to cut the stem down a tiny bit to get it to actually fit, but it worked in the end and the hose is holding strong.
