I now have another problem with this truck. I figured I would take a look at the coolant and it's a light brown oily mess. If you let it sit long enough it will be more oil at the top and thicker but it stays mixed pretty good. I would guess that it was green coolant before. The truck has never had problems with overheating or running smooth. The wierd part of this is that there is no sign of water in the oil AND there is no oil gone from the engine. The tranny is also on a separate cooler from the coolant so it can't be getting the oil from the tranny in the coolant. The only thing I can think of is that someone might have put oil in there thinking it was coolant or put oil in there thinking it was the fill up point for the engine oil, but can't think of who might have done it. This truck really has me stumped.
