Hello , first of all thanks for taking time to help out with your collective knowledge , have a dump truck original freightliner fld 112 , year 1995 with a cat 3306 , 8ll tranny and 456 rears , we bought the truck about 4 months ago its been doing great however we are loosing a lot of water on a weeks time about 4 to 5 gallons of water ( that's a lot of water ) facts : truck runs 300 to 400 miles a day sometime more , starts in the morning perfectly no white smoke , no engine misses hot or cold , starts right up , there is no water coming out anywhere visible , oil is perfect dark black color in a matter of fact its loosing a little oil due to couple of leaks here and there we will fix as we go but no evidence of any water at all in oil , dipstick has no sign of water condensation neither the oil filler cap, engine temp is all good cycles as it should , radiator was completely rebuilt by a pro right when we bought it ( excellent job ), no evidence of any leaks on water pump the little hole or around pump , hoses , truck air compressor area , changed the radiator cap just to be sure ( 10 psi ) truck cooling system holds pressure fine for example after done for the day 4 or 5 hours after it still has pressure as you take the cap off and its pressurized , however I'm worry about the issue because I don't want this to escalade into a bigger problem and it can't be right I think , please let me know if you can think of something else I'm missing ,thanks again in advance .
