Thought I would just put some more details on my situation. I had my tour in to the ford service center five times now. The refused to believe that there was anything wrong with my car. It has been swallowing antifreeze at an alarming rate for months. Plus I had it confirmed that I have exaust gases in my coollant system. When I picked it up from time number 3 to shop... it broke down on the way home (radiator hose blew off). Finally yesterday I get the call. They finally think there is something seriously wrong with my car and are "tearing" into the engine. I also have a loud wine at idol and another CEL they are looking into.... and don't get me started on my other horror story... my wheel almost feel off on the highway. It has been an adventure. It is hopefully coming to a successful conclusion and I will have my baby running good. What a nightmare.
Note to public: If car overheats on the way home from buying it. Give it back to the dealer. Don't chance it. It isn't worth it.

Hey, thanks for the comments. I am very glad I bought the warranty. I almost didn't. What a mistake that would have been. Well they pulled both heads off and sent them to a shop. They found that one head was off one three thousands of an inch. Does anyone know if that is enought to cause the problems I was having with radiotor fluid loss an exaust in my coollant? Thanks again.
