Picked the truck up in Houston last year, drove fine, no issues, did the front axle seals and wheel bearings, then started noticing disappearing coolant.
Pulled the head, had it fluxed, new gaskets, bells and whistles, decked, and put it all back together, etc... Still having issues.
You can follow the issues here... https://forum.ih8mud.com/80-series-tech/757496-found-water-oil.html
I "think" there still might be an issue with the head. I found out that the machine shop only fluxed the deck.
The engine DOES turn over and it DOES start and run, I just don't start it or use it because of the issue...
Please PM for any questions. Located in San Antonio, TX...
