We got a 07 international with the acert c15 cat. Seems to me it runs hot gauge only goes up to 240 it'll climb up to 220 before fan cuts on unless idling or shifting through town is that normal? Also horsepower say 475 pulls more like it's 375 anyone got a idea on that also?

I have an 07 W900l nxs cat and the fan kicks on at 210. Yours sounds really high, could be temp sending unit is faulty. There's so many things horse power wise it could be... Check your ACC for leaks and clamps, hoses. Check fuel pressure. Mine runs strong with 118psi. What's your boost? I baby mine and turn the fan on before it gets too 205 temp. Or start dropping gears and slow down. Hoping I can get at least 1.2 mill before I rebuild it.

Acert fan on temp is commanded by ECM and is preset by caterpillar to come on at 217 water temp.

Toss in different thermostats. Put in a 205 degree temperature sender that turns on the fan. Live a stress free life of not having to worry about temp. Find someone local to re rate you up to 550 hp. Live a life of empty pockets, lots of fuel stops, and miles of smiles. Get a custom tune, for the miles of smiles, and few fuel stops.
