Yes, That was me. I should have stopped and spoke with you. I spent the next 2 hours talking with other Millis drivers that were there.![]()

I would love to tell you that I was joking. I would also like to tell you that I am smarter than that...unfortunately, such is not the case. How, why?, Wtf? Big dummy, Very very poor planning, maybe missing link in the DNA? Hmm, all of the above.
I do enjoy posting my inadequacies though.
Did I mention the scenery was nice.....

I caught up with Boomer today. Our loads were going to the same place.
Very good to meet you Mike. Looks like you are really enjoying it. Your Trainer seems to be a really great guy. I look forward to seeing you again when you have more time.
Be safe and have fun!

Great to finally meet you to Bill! Ya me and him are getting along great. That was a tight spot I was trying to back into. Look forward to talking again

My truck was not running well for about the last week. Engine light on and off constantly, oil pressure drops. I was routed to Richfield and got a B service. It is like my old 660 again. Running great. I must say Craig at BRF is a great guy. He was very informative and helpful. I am in Rochester unloading. I hope I get a run down south so I can try a different route,lol. I did get a chance to meet the class in Richfield. Nice meeting you guys and best of luck.

Not sure if this is what happened to you but - most of the 660's will loose oil pressure. Alarms will go off and pressure drops to about 20. Truck still runs fine just drops. It appears to happen (to me at least) about 1/2 to my next B-serv. I have to stop in a T/A - they change the oil filter - add a gallon or so of oil and off I go!
Seems to not be a "fix" for this problem so I have learned to expect it. -
Thanks Baritone, You hit the nail on the head so to speak. I am also having EGR pressure problems. Shut the engine down and restart the fault is gone. It will stay away as long as I soft peddle it, but hammer down, big RPMs and back it comes. Then the engine is in "safe mode" if you will, Turbo boost doesn't rise above 20 and she's a dog( sorry to call my baby that ) I spoke to Craig and we will be addressing that on Monday. I have an easy run this weekend though. I don't plan on tackling the Appalachians this weekend!
-
I'm not sure but I think you had this happen to you once before David. I think I remember a post about you changing a filter and it corrected the problem.
-
Yes - just have to stop and get the oil filter replaced and add oil and good as new. For some reason they cant seem to fix it for ever. So plan on it happened between b-serv. each time.
curtiscurse and ricrey99 Thank this. -
Engine light right back on this weekend

I dropped at City Brewery this morning and ran over to Madison Kenworth. That place looked like a Millis convention. Those T7's are giving the guys fits. Not major stuff just pain in the neck things. My EGR hoses were pugged
3 hours later I am back on the road, and the girl is running GREAT! Mechanic at Madison said the EGR hoses should be checked every hundred thousand miles. Those guys are really great over there.
