Coolant leak - Bama Boy - 10-18-2019

How long should system hold 20psi


RE: Coolant leak - Bama Boy - 10-18-2019

Help lol I've take pipe loose at back of egr cooler, its dry there


RE: Coolant leak - marek4792 - 10-18-2019

leave it 24 hours if it doesn't hold pressure at all you got a pretty good leak somewhere


RE: Coolant leak - Rawze - 10-18-2019

24 hours, or at least over night. then check everything around truck, etc. next morning. Leaks show up the best after the truck has cooled off over night.

its normal to loose a few psi as the coolant drops in temperature over night. Otherwise, you should not be loosing too much pressure.

K thx, the egr cooler at rear seams dry but I'm not sure that was right end. Now I've created a pretty good air leak. Well I guess I'm just not meant to mechanic on my own truck. As much as I hate it, I guess it's off to KW tomorrow

if u don't start learning how to turn a wrench on that thing, your destined to always be broke and at the mercy of idiot ripp-off mechanics at the local stealers$its.

Yea I know, this just seems to be more serious than my degree of experience.


RE: Coolant leak - Bama Boy - 10-19-2019

K its gonna be raining here most of the day, so it will probably be difficult to do much today. But if I continue trying to work on this.... I'm pretty sure I have a coolant leak, I think it's real possible it may be egr cooler. I did pull the pipe off back side near firewall. That appears to go back to intake side. What would i need to do to check further to see if it's the egr cooler leaking? This is 2013 2350 in a 2015 KW T680
