    hey guys !
    I had fuel in my coolant system and had to replace to cylinder head and coolant tank. It coast me a lot and they also flushed the system with special cleaner many times.
    I drove it about 1500 mills , I had diesel in it again. Flushed it again. Drove about 3 days I still have some diesel in my coolant.
    Is this normal ? Or it still mixes the diesel and coolant ?

    Obviously problem not solved. Can you return to shop or did they fold up the tent and split town?

    I can return.
    But when I contact them they say it's normal cuz there is still diesel in the carburetor and it's hard to clean. I'm not sure if the problem is solved.

    Yea I know...
    I was just having some fun with you.
    Does the the amount of diesel seam to be declining or does it smell like its full of raw diesel?
