    I did talk to the head mechanic at freightliner! He is the 1 who told me about the bad cast on my particular head cast!

    Often the overflow reservoir tank cracks inside the reservoir and leaks out during operation under pressure going unnoticed because the crack is internal and gets blown away by the fan during operation.

    The tank cracks between the overflow tank and the high pressure overflow tank which has a vent to ground tube which if the high pressure tank is being pressurized will push coolant to the ground tube which dumps out and is blown away by the fan. There's your tsb.
