If that was a joke it went over my head!

Have not even started my engine in over 2 months. Had some coolant issues blowing out catch reservoir. Thought thermostat stuck closed. Changed it. Refilled with distilled water. Cap off radiator. Started up engine and a gusher came out open radiator. Head gasket... Cracked liner... Cracked head... No idea but engine gets pulled.... When I'm up to the work... Hopefully I have enough of what might be wrong and no machining required... Am using Felpro head gaskets. May change to Victor Reinz. I have a full set of overhaul Felpro gaskets.Am sure going to install the Flow Kooler water pump this time around. Have entertained installing the cam Russ has.....
Your glow plug system should not have been damaged by you leaving the key on.
There is another problem. Probably the controller. (Which chose this time to die.)
It didn't happen because the key was left on. If that were the case, it would kill it every time you drove a few miles, because the key is on, then as well.
Yeah, not in that position, but everything in that position still has power, when the truck is running. So it's the same as leaving the key in that position, AND the run position, when you are driving.
The controller itself is supposed to turn itself off after the cycle is finished. If it doesn't, it's the controller's fault.
EDIT: Actually I think that position, literally IS the run position, once you have started the truck.

You can always buy it pre-diluted in a pinch.Well nothing big, got it inspected today.
The new radiator showed up today! Plan is to put it in Tank and swap the old brass rad from Tank to Diego. Ordered up a large bypass transmission cooler to put in front of it since it's a manual rad going in an auto truck.
I'm looking forward to Diego running again, but I don't know if I'll be able to buy enough distilled water to mix the coolant since everyone is rationing supplies because of the idiots hoarding toilet paper....
