Well appears to be a difference between diesel and gas when overheated, short version this august my GMC 6.0 gas unknown to me lost a hose, notice guage climbing and overheating on dash message, then limp mode and no place to pull over on hill, so carried on to the top, by this time guage pegged hard over, overheat message now showing, pull over appears to be no coolant, took a lot to refill while engine was still hot, heat took out starter, so a tow from BCAA of fifth wheel and truck no direct cost to me and the shop only had to replace starter, no other damage, had a good holiday and towed home and still no issues, so glad in this case the old gas held up.
It really should not have.
Glad you got her fixed.
