Currently my 97 ford is burning coolant randomly, I pulled it in the shop when I got home at noon and pulled the injectors and pressured the cooling system up to 15 psi with regulated air off the compressor and left it sit. I Have checked it every 30 min or so and I can't get it to push coolant anywhere. Cups are seeping as far as I can tell. Trying to get one of my old android phones to charge to run my scope so I can look in the cylinder. Anyone have any ideas?

No coolant in the pan, but I do have a mess inside the valve covers. Looks slightly milky but the rest of my oil is nice and clean. Wondering if the head gaskets let go on the ol girl with 330k on it

No, let's not d3lete it, let's just close it and leave it. It may help out somebody else in the future. Good job on finding it, at least it's not head gaskets.

BTW, glad we were able to help you out finding the issue. LOL
