When to Service Your 1999 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon Cooling System

If you’re not sure what the purpose of a radiator is, it’s hard to tell when to have your Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon radiator serviced. Nonetheless, it's still extremely important. The radiator is in the cooling system of your car, and it helps your engine temperature stay within a safe range. If your radiator isn’t functioning like it’s supposed to, the engine can overheat – or worse, break down.

Staying on top of routine radiator maintenance for your 1999 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon is a huge factor in the longevity of your engine. In fact, Ford recommends replacing coolant/antifreeze at specific intervals, but it’s a good idea to keep your eyes open for any indication that your radiator is failing. You could be on the verge of a radiator-induced engine breakdown if you notice leaking coolant, overheating, or an illuminated low coolant dashboard light. When you experience one or more of these issues, head to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for a Courtesy Check.

Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon Radiator Q&A

With regular maintenance and service as needed, you could extend the life of your 1999 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon radiator. Get answers to common radiator questions, and head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care as soon as you suspect a radiator issue.

  • Why is the coolant light on my Ford dashboard on? Pay attention to the temperature gauge and lights on your dashboard. If a low coolant warning light comes on or your dashboard temperature gauge keeps rising, it’s likely that your engine is about to overheat (and could leave you stranded on the road). Wait for the engine to cool down, then have your coolant system checked immediately at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • Can an antifreeze leak wait? Notice a leaking fluid that's green, bright orange, or pink and feels sticky? It might be antifreeze. Antifreeze is toxic but has a sweet smell and taste that's attractive to many cats and dogs. Do your pets a favor and have an antifreeze leak investigated ASAP. Then hose down the driveway or garage floor!
  • Can Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon radiators be cleaned? It could be a good idea to have your Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon radiator cleaned out a couple of times a year, maybe at the same time as a tire rotation or oil change.
  • What can cause my E-350 Econoline Club Wagon to overheat? Low coolant, a damaged cooling fan, a faulty water pump, a malfunctioning thermostat, or a clogged radiator could all cause your Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon engine to overheat.
  • What can cause a E-350 Econoline Club Wagon radiator to make boiling or rumbling sounds? Your E-350 Econoline Club Wagon’s cooling system could contain air pockets or your radiator might be clogged. Another possibility is a faulty radiator cap, which is an easy fix!
  • Is it bad to have rust on my E-350 Econoline Club Wagon radiator? Yes. Having rust in your Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon radiator can cause leaks, a reduction in cooling efficiency, and even radiator failure. If rust is left untreated, it can corrode the radiator's cooling passages, causing small cracks or holes that can significantly impact the radiator's ability to function. To help prevent rust from becoming a major issue, it's important to properly maintain your radiator system.
