Postby Letsgofishing101 » Sat Mar 11, 2017 4:38 pm

Hey Guys.

My truck I have just discovered has spat out all the coolant in the resevoir tank and needed about 2L to top up radiator. Very strange havent had it long but done about 8k after fully servicing after purchase. Havent run it up hot yet but got bubbles in radiator.hoping not head as its only done 69k.

Any help ideas Id be very grateful.

cheers

Sorry to be a bearer of bad news. Bubbles only come from leaking head gaskets. Its either the gasket or head
Sanding your knuckles before starting work can help. That way you cant skin them
