We have a 2008 Chevy 5.7 with a 2008 Hydramaster 4.8 salsa.
About 4 weeks ago we had a water pump go out. I had the truck taken to the local PFM shop. They replaced the water pump and thermostat.
We got it back ran it for about a week and it began to over heat moving into the 240-250 range. We took it in and they test for head leak. 4 test and still no positive for a leak. We ended up pulling and replacing the heads. They then put it back together and Friday they tell me they are ordering original hoses to isolate the engine from the truck mount. They said they had no over heating with the truck mount unhooked.
They hooked the TM back up and I took it today to my house cleaned both floors. We began to run hot and hit 250 again. When I was shuting the TM off the engine also died. I waitied for things to cool and drove it over to the shop on my way back it began to run hot and I had to use the old trick of running the heat to get it cooled down.
Just as I suspected on friday they are now saying it is the TM and want to be paid and say there is nothing else the can do.
Has anyone had this problem before?
I am going to take it to my distributor Advantage Marketing on Monday. They have been champs in helping us to navigate this. PFM wants to hear from them that we do not have a TM issue.
I would really appreciate some imput. If you have direct knowledge of a problem like this. Could you give me a call 317-331-0456
