Use OAT coolant only if you mix it with HOAT it form sludge overtime. The best thing you could do is have a shop with a coolant exchange machine do the service.
This is my current setup it works very well oil temps warm right up but stay where I want them. Its a large cooler I bought from anfittings.com then built my own brackets and hoses. I mounted the cooler behind the front bumper so the heat isnt displaced into the intercooler or radiator. Cause of...
2 inch is the max for stock uca’s lots of people run bilsteins set at 2.8 and experience failures. Lots of people also experience failure of the upper shock mount, mostly due to install issues. Personally I have never had an issue running ready lift.
The oil itself shouldn’t evaporate but the moisture and or fuel that gets in it. If your running a none synthetic oil the lighter molecules can evaporate off which leads to slugde and high oil viscositys. But knowone should be running dyno oils in these trucks.
More blow by is created when you work the engine hard. There is also more air being moved through the engine so more moisture content. Plus the higher engine temps mean more can evaporate out the system. Multiple reasons why its good to work the engine hard from time to time and get it up to...
Just removed it and put a plate on the turbine housing. It’s just something to keep and eye on especially if using the turbo braking feature cause thats what caused it.
How much a catch can well catch depends on the usage of the vehicle. On mine this is what I drianed out of mine after 1800 miles and a long tow. Thats a lid off a spray paint can for reference.
Necessary depends on your usage. Towing heavy up grades then yes. Unloaded freeway cruising probably not. But it well prevent the stock oil cooler from failing while your on a road trip and screwing up your vacation.
Just more lies and speculation it’s already been announced exactly what power train there going to use and when production should start. Its also going into the jeep wrangler as well.
It well be the same power plant we have now just with updates like a bigger turbo, different glow plugs, more power, etc. All the bs lawsuit well lead to is a software updates for 2014-2016 trucks.
It works like a conventional thermostat but slightly different. With oil coolers you dont want air pockets so the derale thermostat sends 90% of the oil back but keeps 10% circulating through the cooler at all times. Mine even when below 0F ran fine with no issues warming up with the d&j setup.
