Just a heads up.
I have 72K on my 03MM.
Just noticed a coolent leak coming out from around where the crossover goes into block on the passenger side. Glad I was not out of town on vacation. It was leaving some air in system and with all acc's off I could hear water churing thru the heater core as bubbles went past. Leak was dripping down following top of engine back over side of bell housing to driveway 12+oz. Heat would build up fast at WOT. Nice thing about the elec. wtr. pump is it kept things cool to get to dealership at lower RPM.
I have a elec. water pump from Dennis Reinhart.
Both of the # 391533S100 rubber O rings were FLAT and coolent was getting past on pass. side.
Took the FORD dealership just 1hr to fix. I picked up the O rings at another
dealership as they were out of stock. $4.21 ea.
CK your crossover or replace O rings.
