dang it dang it all to heck im really starting to hate this truck!!!!!!
ok so i bought the cheap expansion plug ian posted above and put it in and started the truck up imediately it starts blowing coolant out of the filler neck im going wtf. so i put the cap on hoping the t stat will open when it gets hot, i keep feeling the upper hose and its hard as a rock and hasnt been running 3 mins and the truck has no heat yet.
so i crack the cap and it sprays everywhere, so i say f*** it and i go for a drive and i dont even make it past taco bell which is 30 seconds away from my house if you are walking.
so i bust a u turn in the middle of the street run a redlight and get home to find the expansion plug blew out.
so is the excess press a blown head gasket???????
i am going to try one more time to get the expansion plug to stay put and if it doesnt im thinking about pulling the head, i just dont want to buy another fireringed gasket and rings.
what to do what to do
