  • Description:

    Ever wonder why your 2000-2010 Ford Explorer suddenly overheats or becomes hard to keep running? Chances are it may have something to do with the components that make up your Explorer's cooling system. The thermostat is just one of several important components that ensure proper coolant circulation throughout the radiator, heater core and the engine itself.

    The thermostat uses a wax element that melts and expands whenever safe coolant temperatures are exceeded. This actuates a valve located within the thermostat that opens all the way to allow greater volumes of coolant to circulate throughout the cooling system. With time, the thermostat can end up stuck in the open or closed position. If the thermostat fails in the closed position, the coolant will overheat and eventually boil over. If the thermostat fails in the open position, it may become harder to start and run the vehicle when the engine is cold.

    Blue Springs Ford Parts wants 2000-2010 Ford Explorer owners to understand the importance of using genuine Ford OEM parts for critical cooling system components. Unlike aftermarket parts, OEM replacements offer guaranteed reliability and quality you can trust for years to come. Order online or call 800-248-7760 to find out more about genuine Ford OEM parts.
