In this video I'll be showing how to replace a coolant reservoir on an 01 Ford Escape 3.0L.

Note: The system will need to be filled and bled properly before returning the vehicle to service. Failure to do so could result in an over heat condition which could damage your engine and cooling system. The fill and bled procedure is not shown in this video. Please use an reputable repair manual for information pertaining to this procedure.

Note: The red handled pliers used in the video are actually made for clamping off hoses. It is not recommended to use anything other than "hose clamp off pliers" to clamp off your hoses. Using anything other than hose clamp off pliers could damage your hoses. Note: Read and understand the instructions given by the manufacturer of any tool you have and only use the tool as intended by the manufacturer.
