    Does anyone know the gallons per minute output and the head pressure of the coolant pump on the 13 liter volvo engine or where I can find that spec. The dealer hasn't been any help at all.

    Just curious why you are wanting to know the pressure are you suspecting pump failure? Reason I ask I just changed one on a 2008 d13 that was overheating down the road but staying cool at idle. Markster1957 who is on this forum often suggested pump failure and it is quite common on d12 13 and he was right the impellar could easily be spun while holding pulley. What are your truck symptems?

    actually I don't have any problems. I pull food grade liquid. Some of the products need to be kept hot. My older truck was set up to run the coolant from the engine through the trailer. I purchased a new tractor and don't want to be mixing my coolant with every other tractor in the fleet. I am building a system by which my tractor coolant will run through a flat plate heat exchanger and the trailer fluid would run in a separate loop through the exchanger. I need to know what the rate is to properly size the heat exchanger as well as choosing a pump for the trailer side.
