<p>[QUOTE="BoxCarKidd, post: 4437068, member: 151415"]Check air dryer exhaust port for coolant. After rereading post that is surely not it. Open hood and see where steam or smoke is coming from. If it is from blow-by tube could be just a tired engine with worn pistons and rings. Could be coolant entering crankcase in a high temperature area like the middle of the a liner and its not seen much in the oil because it is in the form of steam. Then the crankcase pressure carries it out of the engine. Take an oil sample. Come off the road hot, leave engine running with a sheet of cardboard under blowby tube and see if coolant drops on it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
