Ok Guys I am reaching out to you all in dire need of help !!
I have a 2014 Ram 3500 with the 6.7.
I have had cooling issues for 70,000 kms now..
At first sign of trouble I had pressure in my cooloing system , checked it out found out head gasket was going or head lifting as they say.
Got it fixed, new gasket and I put ARP studs in ..
34,680 kms I got on it and BAM same issues again .. run the block test find the head gasket was about to go again or head starting to lift as they say...so I found out this time my head is no good, found some slight cracking in the head on a magnaflux , so I replaced the whole dam thing... New head , new gaskets , arp head studs, etc...
34,777 kms..... LET ME SAY THAT THIS IS NOT 97 KMS LATER IT THE ACTUAL KMS I GOT FROM LAST FIX .. ALMOST THE SAME AMOUT 35000 SO TO SPEAK I am back to the same issues, Low coolant light coming on, excess pressure in the cooling system... WTF...
I have babied this truck since new., I have it deleted, egr too. I RUN THE BULL DOG TUNER NEVER OUT OF TOW MODE.
I have been pulling since day one with truck in my hotshot fleet, never had issues till lately,
there is 300,000 well 292,565 on it right now !! IS MY BLOCK SCREWED ? WHAT ELSE CAN INTRODUCE AIR INTO THE COOLING SYSTEM?
I have tested and checked everything and I sure don't want to pay to have this thing pulled apart again if its not the head gasket, just a waiste of money.,do I need a new engine ? could it be water pump ? turbo ? my turbo is beginning to show weak signs as it whoops on low psi up to about 7-10 psi I thought it was the intercooloer but it tested fine and so are the hoses etc. Si I am assuming that it is just getting weak but can it introduce air into the cooling system ?
please help !!! please !!!
