I pulled into garage yesterday after 2.5 hr trip to Columbus. When I shut off engine and got out, I could hear bumbling and hissing noises coming from under hood. I could hear liquid hitting flooring of garage under the truck. I got down on floor to look and saw antifreeze running everywhere. I lift hood and see it was coming from overflow tube of antifreeze container.
I get back in truck and start it...wanting to see temp...and it was at 210. I shut off motor and can hear the same noises and again....antifreeze sputtering on floor. I saw the fan was running but forgot I had air conditioning on low. So let it cool overnight.
This morning went and bought antifreeze.....it took the whole gallon to fill it. I ran the motor for about a half hour and temp never went above 200....and fan never kicked on. No leaks anywhere.
Where I am puzzled is how did a gallon of antifreeze get dumped if my temp wasn't above 210?
