If there's no coolant in the hot pipe on the passenger side or when you pull the elbow off the sgr cooler and there's not any coolant then if you have a thermoking tripac apu look at the coolant hoses that run from the cutoff valves to the apu bc the coolant isn't separated. The coolant from the truck always run continuously from the truck to the tripac. NOT THE THERMOKING EVOLUTION. Separate coolant system from the truck. Tripac is the same. Come to find out after all the work the thermoking dealership found out where the coolant was going. The tripac had a bad head gasket causing lost of coolant. That was the problem the whole time. If you don't have a apu be sure to ck your coolant lines that runs to your def tank. Hope some of this will help after changing every coolant line you can think of 😅😅😅

@bustedknucklebydieseldr32282 жыл бұрын
Thanks for reaching man. I could Deff see where your coming from here. But you Gta remember cars, trucks and semi trucks all were made to recycle exhaust gas. These semi trucks take the EGR and use it to there advantage and great power out of it. The only downside to the entire system is the aftertreatment which as well all know always have some type of sensor issues. The engine itself runs great with a combined mixture of fresh air and recycled air which infact brings up the temps for combustion and create more power. So I believe they stayed away from an Eng side def filter because they used this current method to the engines benifit. Hopefully that doesn’t sound to confusing. But. To clear it up the Eng we made to run as powerful and as dirty as it can and it’ll just get cleaned later in the aftertreatment so there not worried about soot issues.

With a coolant leak they should be able to fix fairly quickly. Guessing where it’s coming from could lead us in so many directions so my best advise is take it to the ones who did the rebuild or a mechanic you trust to put the system under pressure and see where all the leaks are coming from. There might even be more we can’t see without being under pressure. Those are great year trucks and I hope it brings you no issues and lots of $$$ in return.

Thanks for watching and great question. You know I can’t honestly recommend going any longer losing that much coolant. It is quite a bit. A failed cooler won’t cause hydro lock but if you start noticing your oil level rising due to coolant contamination than I’d stop running it right away. Than you’ll get locked up. When I do drain the system I drain it from the block so most of the cooler would be empty upon removal. When you do go to remove it maybe a 2 liters worth will come out. Not much. If you don’t drain the system than expect around 3 gallons to come out. Being the highest point shouldn’t be much more than that. Failed coolers usually lead to coolant just being burnt up in the intake but long term effects will definitely weaken the valve seats and cylinders. So sooner the better. Hope that helps and thanks for your support on this channel.

Hello. I recently had to change my radiator at a rest area. I hitched a ride to a dealership bought the radiator and changed the radiator at the rest stop. Once completed I filled up the system with water intending to change it out with antifreeze once I got back home. This happened in Pennsylvania, well I went from Pennsylvania to Kentucky and now I am in Montana, twice while driving the low coolant warning comes on and each time the reservoir has been slightly below the low mark, in total I have had to put about a gallon of coolant into the system. No signs of outside leaks, could this be due to me just having water in the system and it just evaporating? Also, never had a coolant leak prior to this situation.
@bustedknucklebydieseldr32282 жыл бұрын
I Gta say damn. That took initiative doing it at a rest area. A radiator is no quick and easy job. If your reservoir keeps getting low than for sure your leaking somewhere. Either external or internal. A quick check for internal would be checking the EGR crossover pipe going to your intake. If it’s really wet you most likely found your answer. If not wet than something on the outside is not sealing. Usually those radiator hoses don’t seal well after so many miles once touched.
Thank you for your reply. I will be keeping an eye on my coolant and if I continue to loose, I will inspect the crossover pipe. Thank you for making your videos.

I was driving last night and my truck started stuttering made some metal noise when I hit the gas , had it towed in town , looked today that egr Venturi pipe has oil or coolant inside of it coolant tank is low , and I have a code 1636 FMI 2 . Any help would be great , checked the turbo also the ring around turbine by the air filter hose is rattling moving around the turbine is fine spins

Well couple of options. If there’s coolant in the pipe than your cooler gave out. If it’s fuel than your injectors are failing open. If it’s oil than get ready for a big bill, could be a head issue. Smart thinking just towing it, don’t want to hurt it worse.

Pretty good question man. I would lean towards no because when the cooler leaks the coolant goes through the intake and gets burnt up with combustion and goes through to the exhaust.

All good man and thanks for reaching out. Sometimes they does occur and usually relates to a fuel issue. A lot of times I’ll find the fuel doser after the turbo plugged up and not delivering fuel to get temps up or the fuel shut off valve in the hydrocarbon doser block isn’t switching on. Both these should throw codes and lead you to part. When they don’t throw codes il run a low temp regen and watch the numbers. Usually will have a onebox sensor far off from the rest and there’s your problem. Hopefully one of these will be your answer.

@@cristoperodriguezgil8075 so I don’t believe I have any videos on it. Showing numbers and understanding them is very difficult to teach.

Fluid is bubbling hot. Also it looses pressure driving and wants to cut off pull over because speed slows down makes me pull over. Cools down 10 to 15 min later turns back on, I assume it’s because coolant is cooled let’s me go about another 10 min driving before same thing occurs. I’m bummed just got the truck 744400 miles just got license as well can’t get on a roll at all. Any suggestions big bro?

If there’s any type of coolant leaks on the Eng than they’ll be smoke from up front. If it’s smoking from your tail pipe than either coolant from your EGR cooler is getting past, burning oil pst your piston rings, or dpfs are contaminated and need inspecting. But it’s hard to say without digging in. Congrats on the new truck and license and I hope things turn around for the better.

Good question, a leaking EGR cooler will saturate the dpf filters and possibly contaminate them to the point of failure. For the most part they can be burnt out in a regen but in the even a regen fails than they would need to be replaced. As for the doc’s there shouldnt be an issue with smoking them out in a regen. But in rare cases yes it might cause docs to push out and not filter properly. Hope that helps.
