Need help

Hey guys I need some help on a 06 Dodge Ram 3500 5.9. When it is under a load it will shoot antifreeze out the overflow bottle. Any ideas other than a head gasket what could cause this? Any help would certainly be appreciated.

It's my pot and I'll stir it if I want to. If you're not careful, I'll stir your's as well!

Are you by any chance overfilling the overflow bottle?

Headgasket or some loose head bolts...

Not too many areas to look at. If it happens when you get some boost going, then there you go. Either you are lifting the head or the gasket is unserviceable; either way you are pressurizing the coolant system.
