would a clogged radiator cause it to overheat extremely quickly?
it was at idle for literally 5 min and when i came back the temp gauge was pegged out.
it was blowing back white smoke for a few days every now and then, but i was told it was just water evaporating.
thanks everyone for all the advice- i literally feel at the end of my rope with this truck already.

actually in a previous thread i had asked about white smoke coming from the exhaust because i had gotten her stuck with the exhaust submerged....not sure if thats what you're talking about or if you did misread our water situation here a few weeks ago haha...
BUT the problems did start after i got stuck- however it was about a week after i got her stuck and the mechanic at the garage said he didnt think it had any connection.

submerging the tailpipe will just create a hottub effect in the water...lol Does nothing to hurt the engine.

i wish it was 50s or lower here.
try high 80s + humidity haha
so call me an idiot- i dont know much about the internal workings of vehicles (yet)
if the heads are cracked- they are in fact covered by an 'internal lubricated parts only' engine warranty?
im going to have a LONG conversation with the dealership tomorrow- but i'd like to have so idea of what im dealing with first.

In a previous thread you stated, "long story short- it was submerged in mud/water for about 10 min (waiting for my buddy to come with his chain) it stalled once, and i immediately restarted the engine no problem. (while still in the mud hole) this was about 4 nights ago.
i had no problems immediately, but last night my engine light came on and it doesn't want to start up right away. and the first 30secs. - 1 min of running is shaky. I also noticed a white smoke once I got home and parked"
Did the problems start after this?
