Hello my name isXXXXX if the cooling system is full, the most common concern we see for this is a defective thermostat, it could also be a water pump not flowing coolant properly or it could be getting combustion gas into the cooling sytem, this is not too common for this truck, I would try the thermostat first and see if the fluctuation is resolved, any more questions just ask, Thanks Steve W
