Coolant flush
Dropped the lower radiator hose and got about 3 gallons out each time. Replaced with distilled water, drive around the block a couple times until the gauge read normal, repeat. Used 13 gallons of water and it was draining clear and other than having to go buy a new hose clamp to replace the POS stock clamp, went well. Put in 3 gallons of Motorcraft Gold at the end and the fluid is about an inch below the MIN line in the degas bottle. I'll keep an eye on it and may add another half gallon of coolant if it drops any. The manual said 28 quart capacity so 3 gallons of coolant is pert near 50%.
