Any ideas? 2004 F150 6 cyl 156,000 miles, I’ve been pulling a 21ft bass boat in the summer for years with no issues. Now on hot days (over 78 degrees) it is over heating. Can’t use AC and need to slow down to 60 mph in-order to cool her down. Never have flushed the radiator or changed the antifreeze. I’m wondering if getting it flushed is a waste of time and if I should just proceed to replacing the radiator? For a couple of years now I can hear a roaring sound (like a jet engine) on really hot days, when I start out driving. Could this be a cooling fan? Seems like the power is restricted during these times. Really need to increase throttle to get going?
