I know I need to have the overhead ran. Should I also check the cam as well?
Those descriptions are pretty vague ...
kinda point towards a stuffed up exhaust of intake ... or a clogged up IMAP, or possibly an EGR valve opening too far.
Any check engine lights?
Does it pass a rail leak test?
Injector cut-out tests?
you say you put a re-man DPF on it ... what about the DOC and SCR elements? For all you know, the DOC could be getting face plugged?.
You have an engine that requires software to work on it... Invest in the software and an older windows7 laptop --- learn how to do things yourself.
I got a malfunction indicator lamp that came on about 150 miles ago. I made it back to the yard without any issues. Im going to clean all the sensors tomorrow. Rail leak and injector cut out test I have not done. I will have to buy the software and I am trying to learn as much as I can to fix things myself. thankyou
