Hi my name isXXXXX will try to help. If you have a seperate fuel heater on this then that is likely the cause of your problem. Let me know if you need further assistance. Thanks for using JA
it is loosing coolant just sitting in garage i drain the seperator and 2 days later it is half full again when first start after sitting for a couple of days it will start then die start again stays running but has white smoke
Are ther any signs of coolant in your crank case oil? fuel in your radiator? If you are getting white smoke then the coolant is either entering your combustion chamber ( head gasket, etc) or it is leaking into your exhast system through the EGR system and burning in your exhaust. Is it throwing any codes?
No coolant any where else but code 128
That means you have an active fault present. You will need to pull your codes to see what codes are logged in memory. Try pulling the codes using your set recume cruise control switches if possible. If not, you will need to have a scan tool plugged in to retrieve your codes. With the ignition switch on , hold your set resume switch until the check engine light blinks. It will then start in diagnostic mode and blink your codes. Example: blink blink blink.... pause blink blink..... pause blink would be code 321 and then onto the next code. It will repeat.
