pics of blown head gasket

[westons]

here are pics i promised. dealer and tech think the head gaskets all started with the radiator leak. GUYS, CHECK YOUR RADIATORS! if they are leaking, you will not see it on the ground, you have to look on or in driver frame rail. the charcoal blueish grey color is where gasket blew out. if it would have been black in color it would have meant the truck got hot. the blueish color means it blew from weak spot or too much pressure.

How many miles on the truck?

What kind of symptoms were you having? Seems like you were puking out the degas bottle like some of us??

Some questions

-Did you have any fluids where they shouldn't be?
-How did Ford find the problems? Did your truck fail the pressure tests?
-Did you blow white smoke?

Ford still can't/wont find the problem with mine and many others

thanks for any insight
