Diesel: how to fix 6.2L engine?

Apr 08, 2008 by michelle g | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

I have an 86 Suburan with a 6.2L diesel engine; with massive coolant leaks. Seems I have leaks under control; unless head(s) need reconditioning. Any ideas regarding such, are greatly apreciated. I am most concerned with the customers' make shift conversion

hook up a pressure tester to the radiator to check for other coolant leaks before you condemn the head gaskets. It could just be something simple. I haven't heard of any problems other than fuel gelling up with the bio-diesel. Good luck
