[QUOTE="JohnP3, post: 2010989, member: 39387"]I fixed them all, I have seen more guys go broke driving a Cat that I ever did a Detroit, the oil leaks on a Cat are at least twice as costly as a Detroit. Oil leakage is easy to check next time you are at a stop and a truck is Idling, look on the ground, then look at the oil pan the coulor will tell you who's engine it is. I made a list of engine problems Oil pans is something I forgot, I have change at least 50 on Cats for cracks, maybe 10 on steel Cummins pans, for corossion. I did one S60 a forklift in the yard pulling a truck got out of position and the forks hit it. A truck is there to make you money, PERIOD, if you drive at max RPM you will go broke[/QUOTE]
