You are absolutely right cat sdp it threw a fit and was derated but due to poor diagnosis I got nailed with a fuel pump a set of filters and a $875 bill .
I'm thinking tech didn't fully understand how the fuel system works and he started by changing out the transfer pump and then the filters but I think my issue was only clogged filters that were causing trouble

Your probably going to need an art head and spark plug soon......
Once you do a bunch of half baked regens the art head is doomed.....
And change the screen filter in the art head fuel supply line too -

Does any one know the oil psi on these trucks?
SDP C15 a acert
Mine has been over hauled by cat, new head, oil pump etc!
When it's cold it's at 65 psi max until it warms up and then, I have 35psi at idle and 53psi going down the hwy. What worries me it drops to 47psi while pulling steep grades. -
All your #s seem a little low but are probably "within spec"
I'll look on mine tomorrow ... -
S - Someone
D - Doing
P - Prison time.
