2005 Ford Ranger Coolant Reservoir Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service the coolant reservoir, specifically the Degas Bottle 2.3L, safely and effectively on 2005 Ford Ranger?

  A: The first step to service the Degas Bottle 2.3L requires that the coolant pressure relief cap remains tightened slantwise to the engine operation due to system pressure buildup which can rapidly eject steam and hot liquid that may result in severe injuries. Clear the first step involves removing the speed control servo mounting bolt when present then setting the servo to the side. Disconnection of the three hoses precedes draining the engine coolant into an appropriate receptacle. The coolant recovery reservoir can be extracted from the vehicle after draining it while removing the mounting bolts. The installation process requires performing the cooling system filling and bleeding procedure with the reverse removal steps.
