    I reckon I'm just gonna check it in the morning but I've got a real slow coolant leak somewhere that I haven't found so it wouldn't hold pressure that long anyway. I'm thinking about doing the water pump since it's no doubt the original and I'll fix any other leak at the same time. Unless I...

    Alright thanks. I've also heard it could help to flush out the red shit if I take the thermostat out and run it with water and dawn for a day or two. Is that true?

    If I know my head gaskets are good I'm gonna do a very small tune, intake, exhaust, and egr block. But I don't want to put that money into it all at one time if it needs head gaskets.

    So I bought my first duramax two weeks ago. It had 194k miles and I've put a little over a 1000 on it. This morning I go crank it up and it says low coolant. I fill it up with water and run it with the cap off. I pull the bleeder and it's coming out about an inch to 1.5 inches. Another thing...

    I've search and can't find it on here although I'm sure it's been discussed. Is there a chemical additives that has been developed that's known for removing dexcool sludge? And any procedure advice when flushing it?

    He came down to 18 and the way I see it is it's got everything I want, the leveling kit and tires are exactly what I want and I like the brush guard. And the tranny is under warranty and it's not tuned. Is it important if the egr is deleted vs putting a blocker plate in?

With that being said is there anything I should do to make it more likely...

    Any Mechanical engineers?

    This has nothing to do with a duramax but I'm a mechanical engineering student looking for a place to do a co-op. Any company suggestions I could look at?
