    The people who design the parking are not drivers and they lay out what seems symmetrical and sensible for the flow of traffic. When it doesn't work as planned so be it. The screw up is cheaper than shutting down the lot for a week and repainting lines. It really sucks when you don't have auto mirrors.

    Ok, so EGR cooler is toast. This is on a cummins, correct. The cooler has been a problem on the cummins for a long time. The delete probably added to its demise.
    This is a company truck, or is this yours?
    If company, who had the delete done?

    Pro's always adapt and overcome. I've always found Missouri pizza to be wacko. Was it any good?

    Its a '13 ISX. Egr cooler was blocked off a week ago and the truck has continued to lose coolant at an increasing rate to what it is now. We had it all done at a shop that they've used for years now.

    I think were gonna pressure test the coolant system and also do a compression test tomorrow.

    There's a chance that if the engine has to come apart that I'll try to buy the truck and have my co cover the repair cost, which I'll then pay back. Id have to be all in at like 30k though, truck and repairs. There's a chance they'll trade it off and put me in a newer truck, or there's a chance they'll put me in one of the 379's sitting at the main yard. Id like to go the o/o route, but Im nervous being stuck with one co because I'll be in debt to them.
