Can't fail if it ain't there. But tell him to keep the egr valve and keep it plugged in to keep everything happy

If you haven't done so already the blue spring upgrade for the fuel pressure regulator is a good idea.

A updated STC fiting with new HPOP o-rings wouldnt be a bad idea.

hope they flushed the cooling system

if not a flush might be in order here

also a coolant filter is a good idea if you dont have one yet

Well thats Great

However some of these trucks take Many Many repeated flushes to clear the system out Something Most shops Fail to do

Some of us me included went to GREAT LENGTHS to Inshure a Clean cooling system

Running Cleaners pullen thermostats undoing all cooling system connections and stuffing the hose in to flush Pullen block drain plugs with many many cycles as there are Lots of places for Casting sand to Hide in there

Im not saying the Guy screwed up but I doubt he went that far with it

The guys that dont flush good usually have the same issue 10-15K down the road just enough time to Kinda put it behind them and forget some shops reliey on this for Job security

I bet I had 10hours into Flushing my coolant system out over 2 days with 3 diffrent cycles of VC-9 Cleaner. I even opened all block drains and just let the hose run threw it for awhile if you remove the thermostat and stick hose there thats considered a reverse flush of the Block.. I did a Bunch of Flushing one day added a Coolant filter drove like this for a Month then Did another round of flushing only the second goaround I replaced the Oil Cooler. SO far it looks like it paid off as my ECT and EOT spread is only 2-6* this time of year and stays about the same driving around town

If I was in your shoes Id add a coolant filter for shure
