    Here in ND my 2 main dealerships ( Kenworth and Western Star / Freightliner ) both look the other way…..

    I actually called WS/F and asked him if he had someone to come delete it again and he said he has a guy that comes right to his shop.

    He will even warranty the engine up to a certain point :eek:

    Wallwork's works on deleted trucks? They must have a different policy out in the patch. A friend of mine blew his W9 Cummins up around Hillsboro, and he had a hook take it to their shop in Fargo. They pulled it in and found out it was deleted, and pulled it right back out. Wouldn't touch it. Had the hook come back and take it to a nearby shop about an hour away that would.

    Go over to rawze and ask over there. Those guys know the red motors good. They could probably point you in the right direction

    They are nailing shops everywhere for huge coin . Best to keep secret if your in this boat.. 2 gallons should be easy to figure out it leaves a sign somewhere..

    1st rule of owning a deleted truck is don't let anyone with a laptop access to truck that you don't know .

    My E Model is preemissions and I still don't let them near my ECM. It's a Fed law that compels them to do such stupid things. I talk with them about it before I take the truck in (which is extremely rare) and if they refuse to honor my terms to NOT plug in then I don't use them.

    Now that I have ET and tons of files it's not a huge deal anymore but before that I would have to really be on top of them about it because a good tuner will charge you about 1k to put a new file in for you.

    The most obvious for losing that much coolant is a crack in the radiator, a lose or split hose, next on the list but very doubtfull it'd lose that much coolant, is a cracked head, or a loose or cracked gasket. If it was a cracked head you'd find water in the sump oil.
