the early cummins and commercial heavy trucks use just a road draft tube dump for crankcase vapors, no egr stock. the oil stays clean a long time. i've been adding a remote dual oil filter setup on every truck that i get. anything to keep the internals cleaner is a good investment, to make the engine last as long as possible. heat and dirt / contaminants are what wear out components. parts and service are really expensive nowdays.
i routed the pcv line to the ground, it kicks out oil that otherwise goes right into the turbo ( on my lbz, not sure about others) and the oil coats the inside of the intercooler etc... the oil is nasty! i did block the egr and that right there helped keep my oil cleaner! i had an 02 that always had nice looking oil but my lbz oil is black as sin.... the reroute and egr blocker really seems to help! not a 100% fix but it keeps my oil looking cleaner for much longer...... hope this helps, later
One more thing before i do this,the T fitting that comes from both valve covers is the one you route to the ground,and then cap off where it went to the turbo with a barstool cap? Thanks for your help,nate
where did you route the pcv to?did you block the egr? I put an fs2500 oil filtration system on my o5 lly and the oil is still dirty.i have heard its because of the pcv & egr valve
can u zoom in any closer?
