We have a 1992 Ford Explorer.
It has a V-6 in it if that matters, but here is my question.
Since we got it, if we towed anything, even a little trailor, it would surge from cool to hot and die. At one point, when stopped after doing this, the antifreeze was just blowing every wich way out of the overflow tank.
My husband thinks that the heads are warped because of it getting so hot, but he is being second guessed by his brother saying that the Explorer is worthless and he is offering to take it off of our hands.
I do not trust my brother in law any further than I can toss him when it comes to cars as he is always out to make a profit...
What could be wrong with the Explorer to be causing this and is it reletively cheap to fix?
**As of the last time it was run a couple weeks ago, the exhaust was burning water and letting it out through the tail pipe. There are no "leaks" anywhere in the hoses...
Please help.
