I have the hottest truck on the East Coast today for sure!!!!

i was wishin that happened to mine while it was in the Atlantic Cummins shop last month.you should come out better than tradin it in.

 

Just curious, but why isn't the dealer's insurance covering this? Or is that what the causation expert is for?

 

I'm thinking whoever is holding the title at the time is the lucky winner.

 

Have you had any work done to it recently?

 

Insurance company won't just pay top dollar, going to be a pain, but at least you weren't on a rest break when it happened.

 

They say those newer engines run hotter.......

 

Do you know if there was any fuel leaking above that area? Friend of mine had an '05 387 with a C-15 and his caught fire from that. He started up his truck and proceeded to load up his personals ( clothes / food / dog ). He started to smell something burning then noticed smoke coming from under the hood. Since he was in the yard and there were plenty of extinguishers around they got it out. He told me they ( they being insurance or Caterpillar ) determined the cause to be a small fuel leak which ignited when he started the truck.
