this is going to be hard for me to explain but here i go. i noticed my trucks coolant cap has been whistling (head gasket failure sign). so i went and got a new one. and i thought everything was fine because this one didnt whistle at all. i checked it almost evrywhere i stopped and it never puked out coolant. i did an oil change that night as well. rotella t6 with rev-x for insurance down the road.( never had stiction issues) my injectors are a year old with 30k and are new ford remans built by rcd as 190cc 100%. i used a new motorcraft oil filter. and i let the truck run for a good 15 mins after the oil change. i let the truck sit over night and fired it up the next morning to warm it up to take my son to school. and noticed it didnt fire up on all cylinders. i then let the truck warm up watching it and it cleared up and was fine. i figured maybe the rev-x was clearing some nasty ***t up. i then took my son to school and drove back home. i poped the hood to check the new coolant cap was olding pressure and it wasn't whistling but coolant had come out of it and on everything else. so i figured id show my dad. i waited for my dad to show up (30 mins). i started the truck up and boom again the truck idling ruff. i wasnt expecting that. i then checked it with the auto engunity and #1 cylinder contrubution code. so i let the truck idle for a bit while i checked the oil and coolant. well theres a white milky residue in the oil and theres dirt flaky looking oil in the resivor. so that leads my to think i have a bad oil cooler. well that only a year old with the updated ford cooler. i have an egr/cooler delete and arp head studs. i have a coolant filter. can havng coolant in the oil make my injector go out like this? obviously i have a bad head gasket problem but does my cooler need replaced too? i got a quote $1600 to have the head gasket problems fixed ( useing oem gaskets this time. i just dont know weather to buy the oil cooler and call up rcd for one injector?
