    steamy tailpipe.

    The seaping of the rad cap, and even seaping after you changed it. Sounds like head gaskets. The bad thing is, you can't test coolant pressures under load, because you have a BIG coolant leak. So you spend all the money to do the EGR cooler, just to find out, all that has to come back apart to...

    Fluids

    I burn everything I can find. I filter it and mix with no problems. Used trans fluid is the best. NEVER in a 6.0, or newer it will give you lot's of problems.

    If the truck is all stock, like you said. ( no exhaust or chip ) you'll be ok.

    Coolant Filter Kit

    I ordered 1 extra filter, is there any part stores that have them ? ( cheaper ) I've also been looking into a coolant additive, ( to clean ) Schaeffer Oil 3.0 | Industrial Lubricants | Diesel Fuel Additive | Synthetic Motor Oils. I've never heard of them, but just seen a show. ( local )...

    2002 7.3 Coolant Temp runs hot with load

    Just got home. On the way the truck was getting warm again. I pulled over, and checked everything out. Found out the truck wasn't holding pressure. Replaced the cap with OEM. All is good. Thanks again to all.

    Time for new batteries?

    That is great life. I'm in Phx, A/Z. If you get 3 years that's great. Agree with everyone. Test both separate, and if one is bad replace both. I have always done that except on my own truck 2 times. And I've been stuck 2 times for it.

    Help Needed Transfer Case Problems

    I would remove the driveshaft. Check u-joints, and rear pinoin yoke. (make sure it's not loose) In 2 wheel drive the chain isn't moving. Only when you have it in 4x4. The repetative noise, that increases with speed. Sounds like rear pinion bearings.

    Engine running crappy

    That's alway's a quick, easy, and most of all free check. I read somone talk about the cat. (being plugged) 2 15mm nut's, drops the cat down enough to drive a check. After that I can't think of anything else. With out having a scanner on it. You need to have PIDS checked. (sensors) Contribution...

    Truck cuts out

    You need to be able to get the truck to act up. (you can't fix somthing that's not broke) Take a log when it happens, everytime. There is lot's of things it can be. The other member we were talking with narrowed it right down. That doesn't meen you have the same problem. And is the truck doing...

    Truck cuts out

    What he checked was the max, output of the pump. Did the truck act up while he was driving ? The other member that were talking with also. Read what he said. The truck acts like a miss, and runs great at full boost. If he had that scanned he would see max pressure also at wide open throttle. It...
