A month ago my car's thermostsat blew and coolant came pouring out of my cap. I replaced it and filled back up with universal antifreeze. After that if I would get on my car I would smell coolant. I would pop the hood and there would be a small amount of coolant seeping from the cap. I bought a new cap and it no longer leaks out. However, now after a day of driving, I get out of the car and smell under the hood and I get a wiff of coolant. It is not leaking. I don't think I put the thermostat in wrong, it really just goes in unless I missed something. Anyone have any ideas before I take it in and have Ford run a coolant system check.
On a side note, when my car gets up to operating temperature, the fan kicks on. However, it never kicks off unless I shut the car off. Is this normal? I put a canned SCT Livewire tune in ( I will be getting dynotuned soon) and my low speed fan setting is at 200 and the high speed is 210. I replaced the thermostat with a 195 degree one from autozone. Sorry so long, this is kind of annoying. The fans I can deal with but the slight smell of coolant bothers me. :shrug:
