good to be back
Hey i used to post on here all the time, its been about a half of a year. anyone remember me...??
ha, well i just started my truck, it sat for about 4 months, and it has about 200,000 on it.
Well when i started it i noticed that water was pouring out of the bottem, well i figured that there was a leak, and sure enough there was a freeze plug on the ground, i am thinking... before when i had my truck it would smoke all the time, do u think it could of been water leaking out of the freeze plugs, they're all old and stuff, well thanks in advance..
oh ya, is there anyway u think my block might be cracked...??

Hey, I remember you. Welcome back.
I think your truck would have been steaming rather than smoking if water was evaporating really rapidly...but it might be hard to tell the difference when moving. Try installing a new plug and see what happens.

Hi Chris, Welcome back. I suspect your engine froze in one of the cold snaps and it threw a freeze pkug. Maybe it didn't crack the block. That is what freeze plugs are for, right?
