only thing i can think of is the oring competly failed and put true oil pressure into the cooling system. 40 psi of oil in cooling system, something is going to blow. luckly it did blow, probly saved the motor by getting your attention
Well I was on an uphill on ramp when it happened. I started to smell antifreeze first. Checked the engine temp and it was fine. Watched it start to climb and knew something was up. My truck even in traffic on the hottest day never went that high on the temp. It was a trip because it was maintaining it with out issue. I only knew there was REALLY a problem when I started seeing the steam. By that time I was on the off ramp. Towed it home and started it up to drive it up in my driveway. Still runs like nothing is wrong...
I will be fixing the oil cooler regardless. Sounds like its a good thing to learn and hell it might save me a couple thousand.
