LEAKING AGAIN
ORIGINAL: kraelo
Nope, a headgasket blown could leak from one water jacket to another, or one cylinder to another, or water to cylinder, or water to oil, or oil to cylinder ...
any combination...

OK I am just trying to rule out all the possibilities. It's still very wierd that the truck leaks when it is at an angle towards the passenger side and doesn't when it is on flat ground
www.dap-inc.com cheapest place i've found for head gasket set, was $159 for full kit including bolts, and stuff to rebuild heads.. 32 overnite shipping ..
do the work yourself and save a ton of money ...
rebuild the heads while you're in there, should be less than $200 to have both rebuilt, pressure tested and valves grind.
nothing like boosting your mpg while you can..
order new thermostat while you're at it.....
If you're feeling good, have the intake hot tanked so all deposits are removed,
another thing, rebuild your injectors......
or just replace the head gaskets and not do anything else (use composite only) not steel ....

Before you do anything, when cold, fill your coolant system with wayer, don't waist any coolant. Open your bleeder screw and continue to fill the coolant bottle till the coolant starts to flow from the bleed screw, then replace the bleed screw and coolant cap.
Next get a coolant pressure test done, time to quit guessing. Now you will know where it is leaking from and what will need to be done.
