Ok so last Sunday I'm driving home from my soccer game in San bernadino when my fuel line cracked and I started leaving a mist of gas behind me. So I pulled off the freeway and had it towed home. I ordered the part and put it on. Now everytime I turn on my a/c it smells like gas (which is understandable) but after 3 hours of my truck being off..the engine is still pretty hot. I took my smarty off to see if it would change anything but it didn't..any ideas?

 

Gas ? We thought you have a diesel ?

 

Is it hot on the gauge or you just feeling the heat in the engine bay by hand? That is one big hunk of iron under that hood and it holds heat a long time after it is shut down.

 

Ya what I meant was diesel gas...I'm pretty sure they don't make smartys for gas engines. But ya it's by hand that it feels hot...I know it's a big engine but it didn't feel like it got any cooler after a 3 hour period and that was only after a 5 minute drive home from school

 

As long as your not overheating on the gauge, and not loosing coolant I think the heat thing is not a problem.
