Thanks thats what I needed to know. I feel its a head gasket are head seal cuzz it will hold pressure and not leak down. I would think iffn it wuz a injector tube I would git leak down with a radiator pressure test of 15psi. Only see this problem when engine izz under load. Also feel it leaks after hot at idle but so small a leak its hard to see unless you seal off the rad at cap and have sum slight bubbling then thru a combustion tester. It will not turn the fluid yellow like a gas engine will, do you know iffin diesel will turn the fluid yellow like gas engine will ?? Strange that the rad temp izz 120 deg at the thermostat and inlet ti rad and same themp at outlet of rad I seen no cool'n of the radiator, remember he has removed the thermostat after he tryed a few new'ins with no effect still pushes water out the ouverflow at a good rate. It may be circulat'n so fast it does not have time to cool the water down with out the thermo installed, 130 izz hot as I seen it git. I do know when you git air in the system it will cause air locks are pockets of air amd cause strange things to happen. It would be EZ to say run it cuzz it ain't git'n hot but he don't won't to find out the hard way when it has never pushed out the water befor. Thanks
