I would like to update this thread and ask for some more advice. So when I filled with my fleetcharge, sure enough I was able to get 5 1/2 gallons in. I tried squeezing the hose, no change. I let the truck run without the rad. cap on for a while, no change. I drove the truck for probably 100 miles. Some at 75 mph on the highway. Came back expecting a drop in coolant but to my surprise it was still full. Also I should note that the temp. Gauge rises as it always has to the "N" and pretty much stays there. Occasionally when idling it will touch the "O". Wouldn't any air worked itself out by now?
One thing I did notice that is interesting to me is that I went and bought a new 13 lb. cap just because the old one looked rough. I told them to get me a cap for 91 7.3. It was way bigger than the hole on the radiator. I knew this wasn't the OEM radiator but maybe it's for a different truck and doesn't have as much capacity? I've attached pic of it
