    I am having to change my filter about every 5000 miles . The coolant level seem normal . When I open the Davco's drain valve , only about 4 ounce of discolored liquid drains out. Right after that, it looks like diesel . Could it be the winter blend in this weather ? Truck drives normal .I drain 6 ounce and it rises back up to where it was within a minute of idling . I hope it ain't my cups . Any ideas ?

    does it get full or only half way up?

    why are you changing your filters?

    oh and if it is the davco, it is in front of the IP system, not behind it, so it would not be cups.
