I think its got other problem
I did the Burping running for close to 20min it with heater on it pushed a lot of antifreeze out about four times I filled it. I went to town its up hill 5 miles on the highway it started making serious lifter noise and rocker arms chattering. I pulled into a parking lot lifted the hood no overflowing or serious boiling. The temp never got past halfway I did notice out in the daylight taking the oil fill cap off it had the Copper color of the K&W sealer. It must have a cracked head or something. The sad part is the cost to fix it will be more than the truck is worth? I hate to put it down its been a great 4X4 the hills is where its having issues the lifters. I let it cool for 20min and back on the road ticking but moving
