I just drained my 2018 Edge with the 3.5. I wish Ford had a better radiator drain. Mine is the same thin petcock that is on my 2008 F150, except it is on the drivers' side on the Edge. I put a clear plastic hose over the nipple below the petcock, extending straight down into my catch pan. When finished I just tighten the petcock back up, then fold the plastic tube back up under the lower bumper cover leaving it connected to the nipple. That way the next coolant flush is much easier. No mess! Thanks for the video!
Great idea! Thanks for the tip!
Thank every much for the video.
Thank you for the video. Do you know the part number for the rubber gasket that goes into the housing flange?

How do you remove the lower housing on a 2009 Ford Flex? Is there a pin hold the housing to the lower pipe or you just have to wiggle the housing out? Please advice. Thank you.
You can try "tapping" it with a hammer lightly. That should break it free.
Lincoln MKS 3.7L, overheating, replaced water pump, thermostat, flushed coolant, radiator fan is working…. What else could it be?
I don't have a good answer for you. Does the heat work?
As your question is 2 months old you probably already know but cylinder head temperature sensor
Coolant temp sensor aka cilynder head temperature sensor CHT.
IQ ON 1000
Did this fix the issue?
Yes
My 2011 Plex is overheating I already put the thermostat change the coolant and stop for a while and now it's bad
You could have a blocked heater core, or some blockage in the coolant system, bad water pump or some other issue. Does the heat work?
I changed my water pump and my thermostat. Still over heating. I’m gonna try to see if it has a blocked heater core
Any chance the temperature sensor is bad? Do you hear the fans running when it's hot?
U didn't have to bleed the system?!!
I did bleed it while I refilled the system. I don't recall if it was in that video or if I made another video filling/bleeding the coolant system.
@@DCAutoEnhancement How so?
@@jeremyfahrni529 using this kit amzn.to/3Gs4cTx I would think there are videos showing the process on this vehicle. If not, I know there are videos showing how to use the kit.
@@DCAutoEnhancement ok cool. Thank you.
If you haven't found one yet, here is one that I made, it should be a similar process. czcams.com/video/oqcHzbcxP5E/video.html
Did it fix the cool heat issue?
Yes
Had to watch 6 minutes just to watch you take airbox off wow
Thank you for your time. It's kind of a balancing act when making videos. Some people know more things than others and they get mad when something takes longer than they think it should, on the other hand, some people get upset when you skip minor details. Thanks for watching and commenting!
