    04 D2 Running hot under load

    No CEL at all. Only the knock sensor code and the overheating on long drives/under load. Other than that the truck runs well with no other issues.

    04 D2 Running hot under load

    Honestly not sure but they did mention they would have to block off cylinder/heads, etc to properly pressure test. I'm clearly not an expert here... Based on your post and jymmiejamz should I just assume its impossible to diagnose the liner issue? Basically is the loss in compression only...

    04 D2 Running hot under load

    The shop was upfront that a visual inspection may not identify the problem. Especially with a liner issue. The truck overall has 102,000 miles on it and the block only having the 50k. Maybe I'll dive into the HG job but I don't think that would fix the low compression right?

    Thought about that but likely not the issue since this happens on the freeway as well

    04 D2 Running hot under load

    Thanks. Are you asking long term fuel mpg? I get around 11mpg but honestly never pay attention as I expect it to be bad.

    D2 Running 10* hotter after new radiator

    Drove the truck a bit more today and it has some strange spikes. I'm wondering if the new fan/clutch combo is faulty. Didn't have that much resistance when the motor was warm...

    D2 Running 10* hotter after new radiator

    The grey T-stat has lowered the temps to around 197-204 under normal driving. It did spike to 215 on the highway (80 degrees out) going up a grade. But the truck seems to go back down to lower temps fairly quickly. Heading to Lake Arrowhead this monday for a little run. We'll see how she does...

    It's supposed to be the "warmer weather one" but curious if it's just not as "good" as the other.

Mainly the passenger rear by approx 1". THinking of just buying 1" spacer for the rear for the quick fix but curious...

    Scan Guage 2 accuracy

    Interesting. As with my case the IR gun vs scan gauge at idle were almost 20* different. Very strange... I had another tech point the IR gun at multiple points in the radiator and all the temps were even and normal. Going to change the t-stat just in case and add some water wetter. So would...
