Problems coolant leaking with 2004 ford f250 xlt power stroke diesel 6.0

Asked Nov 25, 2009, 01:05 PM — 4 Answers
Problems with coolant leaking with 2004 ford f250 xlt power stroke diesel 6.0. My truck does not overheat but I'm losing coolant very rapidly after turning it off, the dealer claims that the EGR controller is bad and the head gaskets are blown I find that hard to believe since the motor only has 78K please help with any information
