OT...TRUCK-U

Watch'n the TRUCK-U show on right now. Man, i'm glad the 7.3'z dont have the EGRCooler. Whata a pain to replace / delete, and what a effin mesh it makes when they do let loose.

Huh, they were "disecting" the problem, and found that it lies with the oil cooler. The 6.0 cooler looks like a radiator in a block form. Well, the coolant passages get plugged up, thus creating higherthan normal oil temps. Which then, the EGR heats up, cause of lack of flow, thus exploding the guts of the EGR. SO, the remedy is installing the Dieselsite Coolant By-Pass....cool stuff.
