    I don't know why you are having that problem. The truck and engine model that you listed for that particular year was one of the best ever produced.........Come on people

    Did you flush your radiator at least a hundred times? No matter how much you flush it out it still has oil in it.

    I had a Briggs and Stratton that did the same thing. Never did fix it......just gave up and sold it. It was air cooled too....

    Could be the transmission oil cooler.

    Some transmissions have a heat exchanger instead of an air/oil cooler. But Im almost positive that the coolant pressure is higher then the oil pressure in the trans cooling circuit.
