I just pulled 10700lbs 750 miles, truck did great, was a 10-20 mph side wind all the way, truck never lost power, water and oil temp stayed withen 10* and after I got to Iowa I had just a little bit of coolant on the degas bottle, I was running Erics street tune, going home i will run the tow tune. Would this just be that I had to much coolant in?

Looks like your eating coolant. It had to go somewhere.

 

[Twan]

Sorry, meant on the out side of the bottle, the coolant level is ok. Just had the white coolant marks.

 

[MorganY]

Did you over fill it?

 

[Twan]

Not sure, it was just under the min line. It's seems to like to stay a 1" under the line.

Ford relased an updated sticker with a lower line. so that is the proper updated level.

 

[Twan]

That lines max is the bottles min right? I had it years ago.

 

[jdgleason]

Tough to say. Keep goin and see what it does... Anything out the exhaust?

 

[Twan]

Nope, was just a little bit on the out side of the bottle, will know more tomorrow, pulling back home see if it leaks any more, I left it low, hoping it likes to be on the low side.

Are you studded? what type of gaskets? egr? I know you have a PM turbo and injectors right?

 

[Twan]

Just have sct, PM a 4" still have the stock coolers and bolts with 119,000 miles.
I'm thinking It was overfilled, had very little coolant leak.

 

[Twan]

Pulled home and didn't use or leak any, guess it was overfeild. The powermax like to be tuned with the street tune, holds better egts than my tow tune.

could be a bad cap not holding pressure..you have the updated cap? get it pressure checked

 

[Twan]

I still have the 1st cap on it, but I pushed it hard on the way home loaded and it did great. I was hoping they were going out so I could get studs.
