I start loosing coolant on my truck after replacing the radiator. No leak but i keep loosing coolant.
Oil is clean, crankase breather is clean, transmission cooler is by passed, egr is deleted, no white smoke out of the exhaust. Where is this coolant going ? How much air can be trapped in the system if possible ? Truck is running fine no overheating
Cummins isx 15 coolant loss no external leak

Update: it was the air pockets in the cooling system, i didn’t do the right procedure to get rid of the air after refilling the system, i will run it and will update soon once again to confirm it was the air and not some other issue

dosgatos, D.Tibbitt and QUALITYTRUCK Thank this. -
Well…
It went from max to min again. I decided to do a combustion leak test with that blue fluid from amazon, unfortunately my engine failed, color changes from blue to green meaning that is comb gases in the coolant and leading to head gasket or cylinder head issues. What are you guys thinking ? Once again, it does not puke coolant thru the reservour, no smoking no coolant in oil. Could be something else like air compressor ? I have replaced only the head on the air compressor not long ago i think i bought it on amazon, could have failed that one ?D.Tibbitt Thanks this. -

My only .02 is I wouldn’t purchase any engine components from Amazon. I do Genuine.

Cooler still has coolant passing through it, even though there is not any exhaust gas flowing through it any longer. Think of cooler the same way you think of a radiator, except that coolant will leak into exhaust flow instead of on ground like radiator.

thank you -
If i remove this little flex pipe, will i be able to see if there is any leaks ? Also on the flex pipe from the exhaust i see some white and reddish mark.
