Head Gasket ??
I will be taking my truck in for the leaking passenger side head gasket. Do they have to drain the oil when they replace the gasket ?. I put Royal Purple oil
in it, and will supply them the oil for the refill if they have to drain it.

I just had my driver's side replaced, and they drained the oil, radiator, and intercooler. Also expect it to take 3-5 days to complete! (at least we get a free loaner).
Also the must have refilled the oil with 8 quarts, because it completely covered the dipstick... I had to drain out at least a quart.

I have an extra set of factory head gaskets and oil pan gasket that I bought with my employee discount. I have them for sell because I just bought a full complete set of gaskets for my engine overhaull.
The dealer would not let me buy everything except the head gaskets.
If anyone is interested e-mail me at gsuavy2002@yahoo.com
