Hal, firing order is correct. I see no bubbles when its idling, but if I rev it up any, without thecap on, it literally "floods" the engine bay with coolant. My concern about it being a head gasket is it will hold pressure with my tester, and another tester since at first I thought mine was bad. If a head gasket was bad, wouldnt the pressure drop?
Lloyd, It doesnt get any better the longer it runs, but it doesnt get any worse either. The cap is on when it pushes coolant out, but only IF you rev it up. It acually runs better when its first started, the shaking occurs within about 30 - 45 seconds of first starting. Im not so sure its a fuel problem, since Ive already replaced everything, pumps, lines, filter, and both tanks. I know all of thats good and working right. (this started about a month after all of that was replaced, but Ive only driven it maybe 200 miles since then. Im slowly "restoring" this truck.)
