I can't recommend the GDE tune strongly enough. Best money I have spent. My intake is as clean as can be and I get great fuel mileage. Average is 26 to 27.
I run the GDE tune but i dont live in an emissions state. So far it has been perfect but the cam gear and main bearing issues have me spooked. I also hear great things about the 2019.
There is such a high failure rate and so much documentation that 19 engines a week fail. Get a lawyer, file suit and settle. Big companies settle fast. The Banks bullet complicates matters. I am sure you wish you pulled it off before taking it in.
Hey I am CS in Alabama, I am new here but I have had my 2015 truck for four years and 75k miles. Great truck so far - not one single repair ever. I am running the GDE tune it seems it really helps this engine. I see from the demand data for the engine, as a part, that about 5% of our 3.0...
Gulf Super-duty synthetic 5W-40 is CK-4 just like Rotella so it should be fine. The only issue to check is the amount of zinc and phosphorous. Its not made by Gulf oil, its actually made by new-tier brands, inc. They use the Gulf name for marketing purposes. I dont know, i say stick with...
I got this off a discussion board but I would call Banks. No way that silencer tube does. that is nothing but a metal tube replacing a plastic tube.
Will Banks products void your warranty?
I have a psd, please no flames. I am considering a chip and exhaust but dont want to loose the...
I would start feeding some Lucas Fuel Injector cleaner through it at the rate of 1/2 gallon per full tank after you change the fuel filter. Change the oil to either Rotella T6 or Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel truck. Other than that you say it is bone stock. I would get the Green Diesel Engineering ECM...
2/21/19: EcoDiesel; Preliminary Approval Granted
Good afternoon, everyone. On February 11, 2019, the court entered an order granting preliminary approval of the class action settlement. The final approval hearing will be on May 3, 2019. You should receive a notice of settlement soon via mail and...
I couldn't be happier with my engine and the GDE tune. Great mileage and never a problem. I did make a gasket out of FEL RAM to block off the EGR tube to make sure any coolant from a faulty EGR cooler couldn't make it to the intake. Until I am out of warranty I will keep toting around the...
5% of ecodiesel engines died an unnatural death. Its kind of like saying "the Chevy Vega is a fine car" back in 1975. Most problems were related to the oil being unable to lubricate the engine once the soot from the EGR got heavy in the oil. There were some causes such as people using mineral...
I like Rotella T6 or Mobil Turbo Diesel Truck. Both are good, meet CJ-4 and CK-4. I just go by the oil minder. Biggest concern is always going to be the EGR throwing soot into the oil so, uh, yeah solve that and you are all good!
