This pertains to my "R.T.A.F. post:When I checked the radiator for over-heating,due to oil loss,radiator was "cold",(below 100 degrees F.),to the touch! This is after truck running highway speeds,for at least 20 minutes,and around town,30-45 M.P.h.,for another 1/2 hour,or so. Could this condition be caused by engine not venting correctly?? No coolant leaks,and engine was cool as well,(I could hold my hand on the valve cover,for a minute,without getting burned!) Engine sounded like it wanted to turn-over,but sounded like a high-compression engine cranking,("hot"),Just after I pulled over,and engine died. An hour or so later,engine started right up,and no rod/valve train Knock. I didn't run it long enough to check oil pressure,but it dropped to 20 P.S.I.,just before I shut 'er down. Thanks!
