Everything sounds OK in your system minus the fan switch as mentioned. I have seen so much crud in the system that it piled up behind the thermostat. So you might want to pick up a gasket and at lest pull the thermostat to take a look. You can also do a boiling water to test to make sure it...

We obviously have a lot of experience in the cooling department on these trucks and I cant stress enough what was stated above. These trucks need very thorough flushing! A combination of life in the military motor pool and a really bad cooling flow design internally in the block casting, there...

Sintorion, We spent months developing, testing, tuning, adjusting and then even after production started, continued to upgrade these kits. The only thing we have not done is spend time on a dynomometer which we would like to do when it works logistically to do so. You just dont like that we...

We have been over this with you time and time again. The kits are fully tested and proven and are in mass use now in hundreds of trucks around the world. There is no proving this to you at any cost and that is fine by us. Good luck as always Sintorion.

Make sure you run your heater when you are refilling your system as that can hold a lot of air and you will not get a good flush with the heater valve closed either. I do not recommend running a thermostat less than 190deg as these diesels need to run around 190-210 to get proper burn. Make...

Of course modern flex-fuel and multi-fuel engines have fuel quality sensors which determine the octane of the fuel as it is pumped and electronically adjust on the fly.

The more I look at this the more it seems there would be two requirements. One, you will need another reservoir for the purge function. This can be a smaller tank mounted on the passenger side. Two, you will need a purge governor added into the system to switch the pump to vent to atmosphere...

I do like the idea of going with an air direr with purge but dealing with all the metric to AN to SAE fittings, hard lines, CARC paint all seems like an alternative to waterboarding. That being said I think from my limited understanding of the drier set-up, the trailer tank could be used as the...

;)

It is possible you just got a bad tank of fuel. Fill stations have had fuels mixed up and you get a gas/diesel blend. Also algae/water will make it smell weird too. I might just drain all the fuel off and try just a 5 gal pail of known good diesel before I go too far down other roads. Good...

I live up at 8000 ft in the Uinta Mountain in Utah so I am going to need something to keep the water out. I will look back in the thread...

That was my assumption that it is time for a rebuild. The kits are available so here I go! Next is whether or not to keep the alcohol system or go to an air drier setup with a purge valve. It looks like it is about the same money as buying a new Mog set-up. Of course I am sure it will take...

So forgive my overall inexperience with air brake systems but when your trucks are running does your unloader valve constantly bleed off at the bottom whenever the truck is running, whether or not it is at the set pressure? I am trying to get to the bottom of the slow pressure build up in my...

Nevermind, found it: 5938789

Do you have the part number?

Take a look at our blog article which gives you the details on the tech... https://paradoxbydesign.com/blogs/news/the-humvee-diesel-engine-cooling-paradox but for your comments specifically, GM started putting in a system like ours with the LS based engines. GM calls it a steam vent pipe, but...

We dropped the ball on this one. I have been overseas for several days and the guys back at the shop messed up. Heads will roll when I get back. For now we are overnight shipping the package this AM. There is no excuse for this.

On the parts failure point...torque is the issue and 6.5T engines make a ton of it. I doubt that much will change on that mark, in fact it will likely be lower TQ and higher HP. Driving style will have more to do with it.

We will be out of the full CUCV kits for 4-6 weeks. The Hybrid kits, 2-3 weeks. After we get back in stock we should be good for the remainder of the summer. You should be good on a kit later on when budget allows.

Guys we are nearing the end of our current run of kits and I know a lot of us are prepping for hot summer driving. So I wanted to make sure my SS brethren get first shot at the last few remaining kits. We have a few 6.2/6.5 kits left and down to one 6.5 Turbo kit before we will be out for a...
