Hey everyone, just decided now that we are shut down to pull the 817 in to the shop today and start doing fluid change/filters. I haven’t started it since January but fired right up, warmed up for 5 min and then drove it it 1500ft up the road to in-front of the shop. At that point I shut it down because I was smelling something. Looks like coolant was exploding everywhere from the expansion tank. I gave the cap a twist to make sure it was shut and when I cracked it open a hair coolant came pouring out. What do you think head gasket got it possible air bound? I’m a Detroit guy so this 250 might have some shuttle nuances I’m in await of? Had the truck two years with no issues of this nature.
thanks
