Curious as to what everyone is using for a service interval on the engine air filter. I know Paccar says change when filter restriction requires it. Thinking about changing mine out. 132K miles on the original, with restriction gauge reading 13 "/h2O
I heard they're a little pricey

Also, belts and tensioners...any recommended end of life expectation...would rather change that stuff at home than on the roadside

You can just buy air filters thru mail and save a lot over going to dealer for parts, just push on the longest part of fan belt to see how tight it feels and when it starts getting louse and chirping a bit when fan turns on its time to replace the belts ?
Evil_E Thanks this. -
For an OTR type truck you could probably go a long time with air filter. Like years.... I change mine quarterly but am in dust always.
Belts I would just have some on the truck and keep an eye on them.Evil_E Thanks this.
