Oil Cooler again??????

[dukeyaz]

Driving from PHX to Flagstaff to pickup a horse trailer. Truck only while going up to Flagstaff I was running 245 EOT and 200 ECT. Pulled over and watched my Rad fan just barely spinning.
On the way home it was dark and outside temp was lower, but the 3 horse slant bumper pull trailer sure wasn't making it run any cooler. I still never saw over the above temps.

Last night I yanked the Radiator fan and top end down to turbo off.
Today I bit the bullet and ordered the BulletProofDiesel oil cooler kit. I also ordered an exhaust.

Sure hope I get it all installed by Sunday. Heading to Malibu pulling the 38ft fifth wheel.

That should tell me if my system is working better.....

A 45° difference between the oil and water is too much. 15° should be all of the difference you see. Let us know how this goes.

Finished the install.
Started vehicle up, it fired ran for a few then died. Now it won't start. Any suggestions?

Don't post in more than one sub forum.

Quick comment. When installing the system remember to keep it clean. Also prime/fill the lines and cooler as much as possible.
I will inform you all when I return how the system performed while towing my 5th wheel.
