| Hello. Purchased our first large truck recently JUst starting hauling it corn in between the snow this February . Losing coolant ,kept adding but couldn't locate the leak quickly. Hook up a rad. Pressure tester and loaded it up to 14 psi . Head gasket leaked along with the rad coolant tank visual bubble. Cap that was on the rad. receiver tank was a low press cap( 4 psi ) where Mack dealer service stated it should be 14 psi Could not locate a code reader except at a Mack dealer ,Towed it in to them .EGR valve is stuck- EGR cooler is leaking - Head gasket shows a visually discolor trail where it was leaking - EGR tube has moisture in it - exhaust manifold has oil film in the end of the inner chamber. One of the piston jugs have a slight mark in it but the service manger thought it would clean up. Just to repair these items it would be pushing 15 k Question I have to answer is where should u stop. New jugs,piston ,rod bearing ,rebuilt heads etc.... Going to speak to them tomorrow and they will have a price if I want to completely go thru it, can't even give a stand up guess. Truck is a 07 with a Eaton auto , 600k mileage. Appreciate any advise or comments.
