[QUOTE="Yardsale , post: 1027708, member: 58988"] My OEM lasted for 240,000 miles and then one of the side tanks developed a crack. Replaced with an aftermarket of similar design (best I can tell, it's a Valeo; hoping for 100,000 miles). I'd say, if you are having problems like this, the problem is not diagnosed. Are you using the correct fluid? Not all service providers pay attention to such things. Ford is specific about radiator fluid (orange, green, whatever). I suspect that the appropriate amount of rust inhibitors and or the pH is important. [/QUOTE]
