Temporarily driving with dpf filter removed

Sorry to hear you had more issues. Always something with these emissions systems. It never ceases to anger me that the government would force this on our industry without having a reliable system first. The little guy ends up biting the bullet. That’s why I keep thinking about a delete. My back pressure valve is leaking and KW said to replace it you have to use an updated one which requires changing additional parts and it will be expensive. And I replaced this bpv about 2 or 3 years ago. There are no lights on or anything but when the truck is idling and the a/c is on you can smell the exhaust fumes. Hopefully I can keep working and get it replaced eventually.

Helpful tip: if you ever go into a derate of 5 mph (don’t know if you know) remove your abs fuse. Its a 10 amp fuse. You’ll be able to move the truck at regular speeds again and at least get off the interstate to a safer spot or maybe even to the shop.

 

I need to see those ads. I’ll be driving through OKC next week sometime. Where exactly are they?

 

Careful deleting the DPF period you can put yourself in a bad position that I'm in now I've got a 13 peterbilt Jake and cruise issues stability control light on and someone changed the ecmu in the unit that I bought at auction and now they want 20 to $25,000 from peterbilt who is the only one that can complete the work to reinstall it before they can work on the truck

 

FYI:
We have had more problems with our DPF.
Spent thousands of dollars
Finally a friend of ours figured out our problem that not one shop caught...
It was just a broken wire in our DPF wiring harness... Go figure!
He replaced that, then used the Hand Held diagnostic tool & cleared the codes , did a full Regen & haven't had any problems since. Thx to our mechanical friend.
