They're great trucks. They just don't like their intake gaskets very much.

ok thx,
found a loose bolt on wp, tightened, no leak.
but noticed water comming out of the catalytic converter, on the engine side is this a head gasket? or what?

thx again!

Water in the exhaust is normal - just a by product of combustion. To check for a head gasket, do a compression test and check for bubbles in the coolant while running with the radiator cap is off.
