I heard a recent news article about the widespread power outages in Texas where many homeowners were using the built in generator that comes in the new Ford F-150s! Definitely a handy feature to have! Hopefully GM will jump on board with the same feature with their full size trucks
I’m no technician by any means, but I’d say if they’re seeing compression loss of some sort, then a leak down test would help pinpoint where the lost compression is going.
Eric did a really informative vid in the link below.
I’m 42. Did a transmission swap in my carport with nothing but hand tools and an engine lift. I was sore for 2 days. Unfortunately it’s just one of those things we have to deal with. Nonetheless, it’s worth it to have the satisfaction of repairing and maintaining your own vehicles!
The coolant at the funnel is steaming, I would guess it is ay full operating temp or close to it. That would indicate the thermostat is circulating coolant through the radiator correct? As for the gauge, it is reading sky high..nearly maxed out. It seems to me that the gauge is not accurately reading coolant temp because of the unnecessary air, so basically reading hot steam?
