Well the truck just hit 163K miles and I ran out of water this morning. I already knew before I popped the hood because of two things...lol

 

1. I slowly lost heat in the cab.

2. Truck started to overheat almost immediately after I lost all heat.

 

 

This happened to me about 2 weeks ago and I didn't think anything of it at first, but from the looks of it I can't find traces of any water leaks anywhere. So I guess I will throw the coolant pressure tester on the truck and see where I spring a leak. I am thinking water pump most likely due to the nature of the beast and the search button feature lol.

Thanks guys for all the advice. I pray something will band aid for now until I can get a replacement block

Cheapest bandaid is keep filling with water, but watch freezing temps. Plug in at night when freezing.

Hey, did you ever get this thing fixed up? What'd you do? Got any pictures?

Wondering if you found a block or did a band-aid repair ?
