Coolant is clean green. I put an Egr delete kit on and discovered a small hole in the small over flow to radiator hose.I replaced that and so far there's no leaking. My instrument display still says low coolent level. Any thoughts on that?

What if the sensor under the surge tank is broken or unplugged?

Slobber tube had a little blowby, did some towing and it went almost to zero, rings sealed. I love this truck.
