So, I got my replacement Brake Resevoir from Paul Grant.. Thanks Paul !

Installed it and while looking over the truck as I have for the hundredth time since I've gotten it..

I crack the cap on the Res for the cooling system.. and Pffft.. A little pressure comes out... I drove it about 40 miles yesterday...

This means my cooling system is airtight thru the engine !

Yeah ! So far hasn't used a drop of oil. And no coolant thank you Jesus !

And nothing else since I got all the leaks stopped up.. Really the only thing leaking was the steering, Which was leaking even when the truck wasn't running..

I looked in thru the throttle body and into the plenum and it appears to be clean as a whistle... Really....

I don't know what to think. The spark plug I pulled looks fairly recent as do the wires but they're 7mm.. And the plug looks perfectly normal...

Clean both ends of both PCV hoses and where they attach to valve covers and the intake and the throttle body.
