Noises problem
1997 Ford Explorer Two Wheel Drive Automatic 170000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
My 97 Ford Explorer started making a continous loud hard sound. I topped off my coolant fluid the day before. I turned the A/C on high and it stoped but when I turned it off my serpentine belt fell off. I hit a dip or bump in the road about the same time. It was dark but my radiator may be leaking
