Default Re: Emergency: How to run with broken radiator or water pump?

Lots more expertise than me but I'll get you started. These Fords seem to be touchy when it comes to adding cooler water to a hot engine. Any differential in temp is asking for blocks to crack. I don't think 212 water hurts much, but adding 80 degree water to the 212 block might cause you trouble.
