I bought a 389 Pete probably 4 years ago now. This truck has a “simplified modification package” and also was overhauled when I bought it. Ran...
there’s only one supply line from the T to the filter housing and then 1 line from the filter housing to the priming pump block. Even if I bypass...
Fired up, still having the same problem.
engine off I was getting bubbles. I do not know if that’s actually from air getting in the system or if it’s from my T fitting here that I made...
I also used a 5 gallon diesel can yesterday on the small supply line that goes from the priming pump to the frame mounted filter housing and it...
I went and bought an oil sight glass plug and used a T fitting to plumb it in. I bypassed the housing using this and it runs better BUT, I can see...

Hello everyone, I’ve been chasing a ghost with my truck for over a year. This truck was overhauled 250k ago (no idea what all was replaced,...
I have a 2013 Peterbilt 389 with an isx15 Cummins. This truck is fully deleted. When I say fully, I mean fully. There is no EGR, no EGR cooler, no...
