Apparently my radiator is severely blocked, so in about a month I'm gonna do a combination of timing chain, water pump and radiator replacement.
On a side note, my gauges were installed. Apparently my engine has 0 psi in it. ._.2020 F250 - 7.3 4x4 CCSB STX 3.55's - BAKFlip MX4

non-original radiator? Quite likely the dimensions inside the fill neck aren't quite right and the cap won't seal as a result.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).
