water on carport after motor has been shut down

[mskinner]

I have an 05 6.0 powerstroke. When I let it sit for awhile there is coolant on the carport. I took it to the dealer and they put the system under pressure and found no leaks.Where is the coolant coming from that I see dripping on my carport.

Welcome to OB!

Something to check is the coolant reservoir, make sure it is not over filled, or it will puke. With the motor cold it should be no higher than the "Low" line on the tank. There was a TSB (Technical Service Bulletin) about this some time ago.

Also make sure that the seal on the cap is clean so you get a good tight seal.

One other thing, make sure the radiator hoses are tight, I had one loose straight from the factory

Just keep the coolant level in the bottle lower than usual, just a switch below the min mark when cold. If you are running a hot tuner you may need to make a modification...
