    HP 2000 APU reviews. Looking for people to give me their true thoughts about the HP 2000 APU. If you’ve neglected it and it didn’t run right please don’t chime in and tell me it’s a piece of junk they do need service and just like everything else. But I’m interested in people that I’ve had them the good and the bad that did all the maintenance when they were supposed to. I’m about to have one installed and just trying to get a little more insight.

    Garbage tier junk. First for disclosure i have never owned one but my uncles fleet HAD about 2 dozen including his own truck. Fleet ditched them after 2 years due to major issues. For example, consistantly had altinators failing every 250-400 hours no matter how many times they were replaced. Water pump issues, had several blow off the condensor and they didnt cool for #### even when they DID work. major electrical issues, shoody box build quality leading to water getting inside, fuel pumps just keot failing, they had one that came with a bad fuel pumo got a new one that failed at 50 hours and the replacment replacment failed in 3 hours. The perkins motor constantly overheated in 90-100 degree weather. And they used about .35 gallons per hour. Also the bunk heater would heat the bunk to 80-90 degrees shut off and not turn on again till it got to 30 degrees then heat to 80-90 again. And they always leaked oil after 700-1300 hours on every single unit due to head gaskets failing.

    I remimber he almost lost his #### more then once about it. He cut his off and put a carrier on after 13 months when his motor finally sized.
