Coolant was changed last week and I have only noticed it since...I have bleeded the air out of it by opening the cap and running it for a while.Any Ideas??? Or is it normal?James Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/32769-boiling-coolant-after-shutdown/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or just the coolant around the turbo??James Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/32769-boiling-coolant-after-shutdown/#findComment-500715 Share on other sites More sharing options...
seventytwo Still have a turbo, it's just on a diesel.
