I don't rember if there is a procedure in the TM, more do I have pictures. I've been out of the Army sense 2014. I also was an operator, not a maintenance guy. I just have the experience from being a diesel technician in the civilian world and a gear head all my life. Further more, I spent most...
The ctis controller and power manifold, if memory serves, just need to be unplugged as they are mounted with in the cab. The DDEC needs to be physically removed every time though
that is an aftercooler for the engine coolant I believe. It dosent look like and air to water aftercooler(aka intercooler; cooling the intake air charge. Called an intercooler due to its location; in between the stages of charge. In this case after the turbo but before the supercharger. An...
There is lube in the compressor. It's not engine oil though. If it's excessive then you could be looking at a new air compressor. I don't know what the recommended replacement time line is for the compressor. I can tell you I've never seen one get replaced while in the military.
the EGR duct is the top one on the air filte box that goes under the cab. It connects to the exhaust on the stack. I miss spoke when I was speaking about oil in the aftercooler. I had a truck with a blown turbo at work I was working on. The 8V92 dosent have an aftercooler system. Though I would...
Oil consumption is going to happen because of the Positive crank case ventilation system; slobber tubes Comming off the valve covers. Block off the smaller diameter hose that goes to the air box comming from the exhaust. The air compressor is driven off the fuel pump(injection pump). There is no...
Thanks NTD. I got back Dec 22nd. As far as the issues go; that was very close to me physically, emotionally and personally. I'm OK and safe. But have shifted my attention to transitioning to civilian life.
Those could work with some modification. Unfortunately the shape and dimensions are different than the ones you posted. I'm trying to Rember how to replace the stock ones. I shattered one in Afghanistan last year.
That sight glass is made of actual glass. I've shattered a few in my day. I think finding the replacement is the hard part. If your not running the winches I would put a threaded plug in its place. If you have no leaks in the system, and you know how much fluid is supposed to be in there...

The c18 doesn't like to just sit there and idle. its part of the TM to switch the high idle on for any extended idle time. We have CAT and Oshkosh Rep's down here that diagnosed the no start and very hard and slow cranking as hydro - lock due to fuel pooling in the bores.
you know the over the road trucker that have onboard trackers so the main office can track the truck and the main office can message the truck driver? Its kin of like that, but for military use with other features and capabilities.
