Oil temps
Question while towing 14,000 lbs toy hauler in the summer my oil temps seem to be on the high side to me (this is my first 6.0 ) I some times will hit 260 during a pull and hover around 235-250 coolant temps are around 225-230 is this normal for towing I have done the unloaded test at 65 and temps are where they need to be any thoughts ?

I think we found a winner, hook the egr valve back up. If you don't want it to work, get a programmer and command it off, or delete the cooler.

My fan is working it comes on at 218 and sounds like the truck is going to take flight. How dose the EGR valve work with the fan ?

Your fan should ramp up half way at 210* and the full speed at 218*.
Everything take signals from the computer to command the speed of the fan. The egr valve is just part of the equation.
Your 6.0 starts to defuel at ECT of 225* and EOT of 252*.
Did you notice a loss of power?

The fan won't ramp up to full speed with the EGR valve disconnected.
If you want the EGR turned off you'll need a tuner to do that.
Or quit towing with it disconnected. It isn't rocket science.
