Benn Reading about head bolts(?) on some of the 6.0s
What is the deal???

I just crawled under my truck and found a leak at the oil drain plug and some stuff near the exhaust manifolds. sorta above them, little oil, drip

Have I got probs or what?? this is the first time I've been under truck in 16000 miles or since I bought it, plus I got a recall about wiring and a customer satisfaction thing in the mail.

AS you can tell I know Dooddly about my truck or engines in general.

Thanks in advance, Herb

Herb,

I am 6.0 stupid, but from what I know the head studs are being done by guys adding beau coup HP performance mods to the truck. They hold better and prevent blowing head gaskets and leaking anti-freeze or pressuring up the cooling system with cylinder pressure........ but again.. I am 6.slow stupid.
