Wow, lots of responses. I did ask at the FL dealer and here is the pricing: Liner kit $3,529 Main bearing kit $292 Gasket kit $363 Head bolts...
Yeah. Need to inframe my 2008 14L DDEC VI Detroit Series 60 engine. I can't afford the OEM stuff so I'm down to either Interstate-McBee or PAI....
Thank you for your super quick responses.
OK, my 2008 Cascadia has sunk liners, which blew the head gasket. This is a 14L EGR DDEC 6 Detroit Series 60 engine, ESN 06R0994171. Mechanic is...
Did you have the injector height set? I read a lot of comments about the DDEC 6 getting 5 MPG but other people tell me 7-9 is normal. My truck...
Oh no. 5 MPG is all that I can expect? May have to sell my truck and buy something else. I read that the Series 60 is supposed to be one of the...
Did you clean out the DPF filter? If it is plugged, then the engine has too much back pressure and that will kill MPG.
4.5 to 5 mpg. I hope that my engine gets at least 7. I'll go broke with that kind of mpg. Is that with the EGR modified?
OMG ! This is exactly the kind of information was I looking for. Doser valve. I read a lot before making my purchase and everyone talked about...
Well. It's complicated. I live out in western Canada where every truck is deleted. BUT I'm going to doing flat deck work in the maritimes and out...
Please see attached pic. What does this box do? I'm thinking of converting my DDEC VI intake to a DDEC V one because the EGR on my truck has...
Small update. Turns out that the dealer where I bought my truck from is not the owner of the truck but is a consignment seller. The actual owner...
@swaan and Working2party: Thank you for your replies. That's what I was looking for.
I read Wikipedia a long time ago. I know about the Uglyfix but its $100, not $2. The resistor may be $2.
@LondRanger, please explain more. What is the $2 part that disables the EGR? What if the DDEC 6 was already deleted? My question was focused on...
Like the title says, which Detroit Series 60 engine is better? The 2005-2006 DDEC V or the 2007-2010 DDEC VI? I know that the engine wiring...
@TTNJ, thanks for reading my post. I bought the truck sight unseen but paid for a diesel repair shop for a pre-purchase inspection. At no time...
Oh? So THAT's the problem? The mechanic told me that he's done hundreds of heads that way and that if you don't shim the liners over spec, that...
@CountryBumkin, this video is GREAT ! This is exactly what my truck is doing. Has a new head gasket (still under warranty in fact and he...
