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? TIA ****MORE DETAILS: 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 ?

freeze plug Busted freeze plug

I have a leak that I could not find where it was exactly coming from, the only thing I could see is that it was running down the starter so after reading some of you guys' comments about think it could be a freeze plug I decided to get under the truck today and take the starter out to see if I could find something out and sure enough the freeze plug right behind the starter was leaking, I tried to tap on one side of it with a crew driver so that section could bend in and make the other side pop out but instead the screwdriver made a hole and as I moved the screwdriver to another section of it, it just kept on making the hole biggerso now its halfway busted but no signs of it coming one bit loose. How do I get it out ? Any help would be really appreciated thanks- 3 replies
