This article supersedes TSB 10-17-9 to update the Service Procedure. ISSUE:

Some 2008-2010 F-Super Duty vehicles equipped with a 6.4L dieselengine may experience an external coolant leak at the radiator. This may be caused by a hyper-extended thermostat. If the bypass thermostat hyper-extends, it causes the primary thermostat to oscillate. This oscillation causes thermal spikes throughout the cooling system and stress on the radiator tubes.
ACTION:

Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition.
