Message: [QUOTE="junglejoe, post: 1529894, member: 18893"] As far as the shop.. Well he "claims" to never have had a 6.0 come back.. Yet here is my fuggin truck with what is apparently 5 gawt damn headgasket issues!!! I'm trying to remain calm,Im only human and can only take so much chit from sorry ass shoddy people.. Ill try to answer everyone I can.. Trying to not have multiple quotes to keep it clean.. And yes I do appreciate and read all the suggestions... The oil cooler issues.. It clogs up every single time this dude works on it!! Not sure what's up with that. I personally flushed this truck out to where you could drink the water right out of the block when the oil cooler and egr cooler ruptured. So I know it was clean as bottled water. Yet..the sum beech still eats oil coolers. I have NOT backflushed any of them. As far as the gasket blowing by the water port..you mention high heat..the truck has NEVER been above 212 on the coolant. So as far as high heat,unless you are referring to something else. The heads decking.. I don't know about you sir,but I ALWAYS take heads,flywheels ect. to have them checked for cracks and flatness. Been there done that on installing new chit and tear it right back apart. The reason the felpro gaskets was used is another shop told me to use those with the o-ringed heads..they have thicker material around for the oring..so I did. Is it right? Who knows.. Edit:: I see you meant something else..10-4 I do not know where the heads come from. I'm making sure the gasket is in fact blown again before I go flip a lid on this dude! I am buying another cap today.. Matter of fact Im taking the cap off of my brothers truck that we used to do the pressure test on. His truck has o-ringed heads also with the same felpro gaskets and his pressure only for to 5psi,of course not worked on by this fuggin butcher shop that has done mine $7000 for head gaskets?? No thank you! I could do it my self if I had a way to take the cab off. I know it can be done with the cab on but I wouldn't even attempt that. [/QUOTE]
