Hey buzz I think your right about the early stages. When I bought the truck last year I quickly found out there was a hole in the top of the rad but it always drove ok, etc. Now that I've changed the rad and everything I guess the gas can't escape and the problem has become obvious. The head...

Well I had the block tester come and did a test. The fluid didn't change much but I would say it was almost green so there must be some gases present. If I leave it running with the cap off it doesn't overheat or push fluid out. I cut the rubber seal off the bottom of the cap so I can still put...
