======================
Is that truck de-mandated?. If so, then why is the Doser pipe supply line still connected?


* Removing the supply-pipe (at both ends).
* Removing the short piece of stand-off on the IFSM that it attaches to.
* Installing a threaded plug into the IFSM where the stand-off was (part# 3678921)

It could just be left on, but then you have to check every so often to ensure your Desor injector has not gotten leaky, causing mysterious fuel mileage losses.

Also: I see you are running a Donaldson fuel filter. That is fine, but i hope like hell your not using Donaldson Oil filters (anything that is NOT fleetguard). That is dancing with the kiss of engine death!.

I never thought to remove the doser supply, thanks a million for the recommendation, I’ll take care of that right away!

I purely run Donaldson, have for 10 years on all my truck and have never had a issue , I’ve had problems with Baldwin. My oil filter is a Donaldson Blue series synthetic, I run Donaldson blue air filters also.

I didn’t know anyone was having issues with Donaldson’s....
