I have a coolant leak?????? There is no sign under the truck but it is going somewhere???? I can smell it coming out of the exhust. I have had the dealer take a look at it and they put it under a pressure test and said nothing wrong. I am going thru about a gallon of fluid about a month. I have had the injectors replaced and it seemed to start after that. Any help ??????

Welcome aboard. Sorry to hear you are experiencing problems.

Let me guess - you own a 2001 truck. Sure sounds like a head gasket to me - 2001 have known problem with the first generation of gaskets used, especially if the truck has been turned up with power adders, boost increases, or both.

Please fill out your signature with truck info, it will help us, help you.

Could also be injector cup seals ..

That would be my guess, as well, if the problem didn't exist before the injector change.
