Description of the problem | I have a 2001 ford f150 with a 4. 2l v6 engine and at 97,500 miles it started to leak antifreeze. A mechanic told me that it is a problem that he has seen in many f150 trucks with the 4. 2l v6. He said that the lower intake gasket as well as the timing cover gasket have to be replaced to fix this problem. *jb |
