Hopefully, she can find someone to put in the pump, without the whole gasket job. I have never read any posts about head gasket failure on the Duratec here, probably because it is all aluminum, less stress on the gaskets. [To Amsra: check if the cooing fans are running, with a/c on. If ok, then turn off the a/c, the fans should run when the temp reaches the M on normal]
