Coolant pushed through overflow reservoir (ser 60-14L- DDEC-5)

I had many series 60 before. long time ago I bought a truck with series 60. the truck had green coolant inside and the mileage was around 650k. I changed the coolant to red elc and mount a go I got problem like yours. I guess red elc cleaned corrosion between cylinder and block , little space opened and got sunk cylinder. next purchase was a o/o truck with 250k m mileage. I kept adding extender and changing coolant every 300k. that truck has now 1.7m miles.. overhauled at 950k. when we pulled cylinders we saw clean surfaces between block and liners.

 

I don't know any good shop in los angeles area for engine overhaul. I know good place to do clutch, trans and rears.

 

if you will do that at one point you will stop truck driving and you will became mechanic. And then god knows only will you be good one or just one of regular* today's mechanics. ))))

 

Verdel all you need is big size pickup truck with crane mounted on back and compressor, parking lot, tools , sun shade and workshop manuals. I can help you with manuals. but there is no need get hands dirty for brake job or wheel seal replacement because in area where you live you can find good street mechanics who can do the job fast, cheap and with quality. if you will have a problem with drive line(clutch, trans, rears) let me know. I know good , fantastic fast place in long beach area. They can remove, fix and put back you trans within 3-4 hours ))). Your logo shows Hollywood Hot Rod. Are you from Burbank area right?

 

I would recomend to replace bullgear too, to avoid engine failure later.
