had similar issue with my 96 gmc 1500, had it checked by local shop they couldn't figure it out so i got down and dirty got down under the dash board and found that the seal had become so sticky it would catch and stop the actuator from working, clean up the sticky seal around it and now works like new with 0 issues.

Great thank you will try the plug thing I have had truck setting since Sat. here's something that got me thinking, when replacing the radiator, we noticed that the oil cooler lines on the old radiator had a o ring to them, the new radiator did not, so he used the old o ring when attaching to the new radiator. could this be causing a bleed over?

I have a 1996 GMC Sierra k1500, I recently I had to replace the clutch system, after that the truck started to go through antifreeze like crazy we could never figure out where it was going (no leaks that were visual) truck never over heated. we ended up replacing the hoses, we went ahead and put in a new alternator thinking the fan was not working. after that, the truck started to overheat so we put in a new radiator, went to do an oil change seen that the oil was milky, so drained everything did full oil change including filter, checked oil again and still has a watery milky color in the oil. Can anyone please tell me what to do from here?
