Blown head gasket is a pretty good bet. I'm dealing with it now

Oil getting in the radiator is usually from an oil cooler going bad. I've never seen oil in the coolant from bad headgaskets on a 6.0, but doesn't mean it can't happen. It sounds like you could have more than one problem also.

if that is the case ford needs to start buying ther parts from china insted of taiwan its a beter part. ya . this truck only has 54000 miles on it thats a shame to have it in the shop allready. what happen to quality? ford ,chevy,dodge thay seem to be all in the same catagory.

It's not the parts fault necessarily. It's a bad/sloppy design.

my intercooler went last april. the rad and dipstick looked like a chocolate milkshake. the turbo had to be torn down because of lack of power. this week the turbo crapped out and ford bought me a new one. btw its an 05 6L with 51k.
