I have a 2004 F-550 with a 6.0 diesel. I jusy had the heads machined and new head gaskets. Now it runs great but I am getting diesel mixed in with the anti freeze. I start with a low resivior and it keeps adding fluid to it. The resivior gets a darkish color to it. You can smell the diesel in it when I drain it.

I was told to change to orings on the injectors. When I explained that to a diesel mechanic, he said the antifreeze doesn't go near the injectors so that can't be the problem.

The machine shop did not replace any o rings when he took the two parts of the heads apart. He just put them back together with the old o rings, etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
