Cat c15 Sdp air locking

Unfortunately no, it's looking like my only option is a tear down.

 

I installed a zero pressure system on my cat to buy me some time. Hoping to push the truck till spring breakup. Here is a video of my secondary coolant tank..... yeah I think she's bubbling a bit!

 

Thought I would give a better video that shows the whole setup. Don't mind the dirty truck.... and that rubber glove is covering my espar connectors while it gets rebuilt haha.

 

I'm ripping the head off right now, on vacation for the long weekend then the heads coming off and I'll start measuring everything.

The thing gave out hard on me one day, truck started blowing massive pressure out of the coolant so I'm assuming I blew a fire ring. I'll update with what I find next week.

 

Yes, when the mechanic rebuilt my engine he did not cut the counter bores. In 5 spots along the flange where the liner sits on the deck, I had bad wear.

Cat allows 1 thou..... I had 10 thou at one spot where it blew and 5 thou at another! What happened wasn't so much the head gasket blowing but the very top o-ring on my liner actually burnt and allowed combustion gases to go direct into the coolant.
