Hi, I have a 03 F-250 PSD 6.0. I checked the water and found oil in it. I was wondering if the gye that just had this same problem has figured this problem out yet?
*runs great
*compression good
*not blowing pressure back into the cooling system

Quite possibly the stuff your looking at may be radiator leak stopper - that black pellet stuff. The smog guy overheated my '69 f250 and melted the block hose under the headers and thats what flowed out. He thought it was oil in the radiator. I remember my brother putting it into the truck before the start of last winter. Truck didn't get but 600 miles put on it this year.
