    Thanks for the suggestions, guys.

    I was racking my brains about coolant lines to the DPF/DOC area.

    I got a call back from the TM, who is an ex-trucker and generally mechanically inclined dude.

    Turns out that the in-transit heat lines for the trailer run over the top of the aftertreatment assembly.

    Furthermore, they are plumbed into the coolant via the cab heater core circuit.

    This is not totally obvious at first glance.

    Turning off the heater core valves stops the leak.

    I learned something new today.

    I've asked them before about a shop manual for this truck, to no avail.

    Anyway, back up and running, probably stop at Nick's Catfish and Barbecue tonight.

    Driver gotta go.........

    It's always you 7 foot tall mofos critiquing the opening diameter of pee bottles.

    I don't skip pages. Too many little nuggets of info to be had.
    Find myself parked at quite possibly the worst Loves in all of the world, but they have a Arby's. Gonna take @Rideandrepair advice and try the Gyro. Gonna be plenty pissed if it's not any good. Hard to beat a beef and cheddar. Throwing all caution to the wind. F it. I'm getting two.

    Beef and cheddar with extra Arby's sauce for the win.

    I disagree, French dip for the win, with a strong second to the traditional gyro.

    Gyros is the better deal. French hard to beat.

    Sometimes things aren’t meant to fit, that doesn’t seem safe...
