Unhappy Blown head gasket

Im puking out the degas bottle and the truck is not runnin as good as she should. Im returning everything to stock but a few questions.

Can the dealer tell that I had my SCT on it after I return to stock?

Will my cat and muffler cut off Void the warranty? If so anybody got an exhaust for the truck in my sig for sale??

Cat and muffler missing shouldnt void the warranty. The SCT shouldnt show up either. Im thinking the EGR cooler may be blown

Hey Adam! Sorry your still having coolant issues. Our dealers around here are not too mod friendly. Not Friendly At All IMO. You will have to drop you rig off and WAIT A SPELL!! I have had better luck in Elizabeth City, N.C. not to far from us. They basically ask if I have a tuner "ON". There is also someone here using a friendly in Hampton or Newport News. Good Luck!!

the never ending puking...hmmm life is so much better egr free and studded lol.

good luck with getting it fixed. a buddy of mine was puking out the degas bottle..dealer put a new cap on the bottle, go figure.

btw dealer will never know once you return it back to stock, and depending on the dealer the intake/exhaust shouldnt be a problem...i brought my truck in the dealer with a 7 gallon tank of water/meth in the bed of my truck and they like thats awesome lol
