    R/A told me to override the engine shutoff after I asked "can I make it 17 miles with my regen light flashing?" I made it... Still waiting to get back to the yard for that...

    Sure... just means the pressure differential across the DPF is starting to get above the preset limits - might be a sensor problem as well as constipated DPF.

    But overheat is a different animal. While diesels do better running hot, running too hot can do some serious damage to the engine.

    Hello ladies and gents. Well we went back to Carson California dropped off a load at general mills . Got a load back from Arizona to Virginia and the truck is in the shoP. trainer at home relaxing and I'm in a hotel room going crazy. Couldn't stay on the truck because freightliner shuts its gates at 12am and lets the German sheppards out. Been here since Friday morning. Hopefully they can get it done by tomorrow. Anxious to uPgrade but can't do much until I get 30k and I'm only looking at 15k smh!
