Diesel Gelling Concerns, Diesel Motorhomes and Twin Turbos - Top Diesel Tech ... - TruckTrend Network

Whenever the temperature drops below 0 degrees, the fuel filter will clog with gelled fuel. I also have two Volkswagen diesels and two pieces of off-road diesel equipment that get their fuel from the same source as the Ford, and these have never gelled. Mill River, Massachusetts The stock fuel filter isn’t in the best location on new Ford trucks. We’ll assume you already tried replacing the stock filter with a new one, as after the fuel in the filter gels for the first time, it usually leaves some pretty nasty buildup. There are a number of simple things you can try first, like insulating the filter or parking the truck in a garage. There are also heating blankets or patches from auto parts stores you can put on the filter. Even though it will only keep the outside warm (but it can’t get too warm, as the housing is plastic), it will help keep the fuel from gelling. These pumps come complete with a filter assembly and can be ordered with an optional heater. The filters are also rated for diesel fuel and the correct micron filtration, so you won’t have to worry about contaminating your fuel or improper filtration. If the fuel does start to gel, these types of powerful electric pumps can usually push. Source: www.trucktrend.com

Crankcase Concerns, EGT Troubles & Clutch Choices - Top Diesel Tech Questions - TruckTrend Network

My Ford pickup truck has a 6. 4L Ford Power Stroke diesel engine, as well as an H&S Mini Maxx programmer, an S&B intake, and aftermarket exhaust. I was looking into buying a crankcase ventilation kit to relieve crankcase pressure, but I don't really know much about it. Just looking for some advice on whether I need one or not. Via email We're glad you asked, because crankcase ventilation isn't commonly discussed, although it is a subject diesel owners should be aware of. In a running engine of any sort—diesel or not—ring sealing isn't perfect, and a small amount of... It holds the rods, crankshaft, oil pan, and basically every passage that oil travels through in the engine. Stock ventilating systems on most newer engines resend any blow-by directly back into the intake tract, instead of just venting it to atmosphere (as it was with older diesels). This means that over time, a lot of oil residue builds up in the entire intake tract. The excess oil is especially hard on intercooler boots, which can blow off under hard acceleration and high boost when coated with oil. I have an ’02 Cummins-powered Ram with a 5-inch straight exhaust, a Scottie 2 intake that sucks air from the fender and the cowl, a MADS Smarty programmer, an Industrial Injection Hot Rod VP44 injection pump, a FASS 150-gph lift pump, a Banks...
