I have a used ford expedition 1997 when I give it gas I hear gushing water for the first 3-3 seconds and anti-freeze is leaking from the front right side of the truck. The truck does not over heat and every thing else seems fine. What kind of problems am I looking at?

Hi there,

I would first have a cooling system pressure test done to locate the coolant leak, the noise may be air trapped in the heater core due to the coolant leak.
