looking at a 6.4 tomorrow

Going to look at an 08 kr 6.4. I know what to look for on diesel trucks but would like to what to check out on the 6.4 to hopefully get a problem free truck.

Look to make sure it hasn't been puking coolant out of the degas bottle.

Also look and see if there are any coolant leaks near the radiator or egr system. For the most part the computer is sensitive enough to throw a code for any engine or transmission issues.

Yes like said there really isn't much to look for other than leaks or codes honestly.

High miles or low? Prob a good idea to make sure the engine oil has been changed often and the coolant has been flushed once but not mandatory

It's at 80k it had an Egr cooler replaced at 76k. Was completely stock still had muffler and everything. No leaks that I could see.
