Anybody blown more than 1 headgasket
Okay my truck went in for studs in November at 71K and now at 76k it's puking again.
The dealer installed the studs, but I'm at a loss with this truck man. The warranty is up in July of this year so I'm almost at the point where I can't be without the truck when it goes back in the shop. The truck ran fine until I hooked up my 7500lb trailer to it and hit a few South Carolina/Georgia hills. That's when it reverted back to it's old ways of puking coolant out the reservoir cap. I really like the truck and I've put a ton of money in it, but I'm about ready to go over to Duramax so I can at least attempt to get over 150k without major engine problems. I know all the Diesels have problems but this is ridiculous man.

something wasnt done right, either your heads are warped and werent replaced or decked or they didnt install the studs properly.

I am on my second set of gaskets. Something was wrong with first job. I think the heads that were supposed to be "micro" planned, got a serious deck, and the heads warped. So got new heads now at Fords expense. Chances are the heads were warped and they didnt check them correctly.
I wouldnt dare run your street tune while pulling that weight, the timing is too advanced and it builds alot of cylinder pressure. |

I was running it on the tow tune today when it went south. I'm really exhausted mentally because I have to go without a truck again when it goes back in the shop. I don't pull it with the xtreme street tune.
