Two things?
First I how many places did you ask this question?
Maybe the admins should merge all of them together.
Second is where are you getting coolant in?
The fuel water separator?
I would just rebuild it.

I would just get the rebuild. Might be jumping the gun, right now. Maybe injector cups, and further investigation. The engine may have another 300-500k left before an inframe. I’d hate to swap it out , only to have to throw more money at the newer engine. Prices. Seem high, for a used engine. I’d rather keep everything original. Eventually trade up for a Truck with desired specs.

My mistake, no price on engine yet. I guess it all depends on the costs either way.

My 2014 389 ISX has 587,000 on the clock. It uses no oil or antifreeze. It’s currently running like a champ. It won’t, however, make it to 590,000 because........

Put a Cummins ReCon (570) in A little over 3 years ago. $22,500 delivered to my house. Came with everything including a new wire harness. Haven’t touched it other than oil changes and yearly overhead. Installed it myself in under 2 weeks, painted the frame and a bunch of other stuff while the engine was out.
I was nervous going this route but, no regrets 3 yeas laterD.Tibbitt Thanks this.
