    broken valve spring

    its not looking like it will be a fast fix, no one i have talked to has ever heard of a 6.7 having a valve spring fail. i have a fleet of crane with 190 of these engine and not a one has had an issue like this, its unfortunate, just a small defective part caused such significant damage

    check your fuel supply, make sure of its quality and that it is ULSD also carefully remove the fuel filter and have a look see if you have any debris or weird crystallization's on it. are you adding any additives to the fuel?

    FUEL MAGIC vs. P0147C

    the injectors and the rail pump dont like it either, we had the system go in one of our cranes and cummins blamed it on high sulphur content in the fuel scoring the pump and damaging the piezo crystal in the injectors

    Mopar CAI for 2012 3500?

    i like the mopar quality, i have had k&n before i didnt like the cheapness of the product, cold air is much better than hot air without a doubt but how it gets used the chrome tube wont have any real detrimental effect, the truck spends 95% of its life putting around the city and 5% puling my...

    FUEL MAGIC vs. P0147C

    i see what your saying and yes more lubricity is obviously better as long as its not just adding more sulphur back into the fuel which most do, there are some that keep to the ULSD levels and those are fine.

    18k lb towing, manual or auto tranny?

    i was meaning total payload/trailer but the numbers were also off the top of my head i just remembered when i was purchasing my truck the manual had a much lower capacity than the auto, auto's are also a much stronger design than most standards (look at heavy equipment) but to each their own, my...

    FUEL MAGIC vs. P0147C

    most "lubricity" additives are just putting sulphur back into the fuel, the extra sulphur will damage the fuel pump and injectors, totally honestly the new ULSD only need what u get from the pump, cetane boosters wont harm anything though, if you had a older diesel designed to run LSD then you...

    FUEL MAGIC vs. P0147C

    i'm not familiar with that specific but generally additives to ULSD engines are not a wise idea, there are very few that actually do much other than add sulphur back in, and most climates do not need need any additives other than northern canada to help lower the cloud point ect

    Class Action 6.7L

    your fuel in oil issue is interesting, i would run it for another 1500mi and resample to see if you still have fuel in oil. a "leaking" injector would have to be washing down the cyl as the high press common rail doesn't have a return on the injectors unlike the old style. as for the making oil...
