I'm betting the shop foreman couldn't find any of the older techs that wanted to work on the old 8v92 turbo over. Not much room in a pusher RV engine bay. Hard on clothes and body. Can make far more money working on trucks. Probably stuck a young kid on it fresh out of diesel school. Never seen a 2 smoke before and even worse in an RV. Scott will have all the RV Jimmy 2 stroke work he can handle until the body gives out even more. Body killing and requires expensive tools. Old RV owners are not at the top of the financial food chain

@riflessss Sure, thing is these vehicles are too big for the average person to take apart. I mean, you’ll need facilitees like a dedicated workshop. Then, if you have the privilege of your own facility for storing and mainanence, how to handle big parts and buy all the, often special, tools and so forth. I see this all the time, people buy a used bus and convert them into RV’s or whatever. The average owner doesn’t have a clue what it takes to keep them on the road. The example given in this video shows enough what can go wrong, specially when these vehicle’s get older most without any doubt do not get the proper care they need, too expensive, too big, no knowledge. Now don’t get me wrong, this is a great bus and I wish I had the opportunity to own one. Over here in Europe that would be nearly impossible.

You are spot on with the K&N filters - have replaced multiple Powerstroke engines due to dusting. They ruine the turbo, if the owner does not replace engine oil within spec (less than 5000 miles) it often ends up with a dead cylinder, trashed HPOP due to dust in oil. The K&N filter get clogged and sucked down into the airfilter box and let in-filtered air pass by and take out the engine. Even injectors ( 30 pluss internal parts) will eventually have internal scoring due to contaminated oil ( I build injectors myself so I see the result of the highly spoken of K&N race filter - just like what’s shown here. Personally I prefer using a large diposabel paper filter of good quality - type round/oval - S&B or similar. I’ running 238cc/80% nozzles and GTP-38R turbo pushing 40 psi (waste gate wired shut) for more than 10 years - with regular maintainance - without any problems att all. So guys - most of you know, please do not waste money on a race-filter designed to be on the race track rather than dusty everyday conditions.

Scott a couple of things have been a constant with you in every one of your videos I have watched over the past 3ish years, and that is your integrity, ethics, and the pride you take in the work you do. No matter how many diagnostic tools a guy has in his tool box those traits are still priceless, and always will be. You remind me of my late father in that regard, he was a heavy duty mechanic and knew his way around the Detroits and the other big diesels. I can't give you a higher compliment. He's been gone a long time, but hearing you explain what happened at the other shop and your obvious distaste for the way your customer was treated...well...it reminded me of him. You could be teaching an ethics/integrity class to up and coming techs if you ever had a mind to. The world could certainly use more mechanics like you. It is good to see your son on that path.

One thing people should realize about turbo motors, is they arent as sensitive to air filter restriction as a N/A engine is. On a N/A engine your relying on atmospheric pressure to fill the cylinders. If you lose 1 psi through the air filter at WOT, which would be a really clogged filter, you would feel the difference upon replacement. On a turbo, the turbo is actively pulling air through the filter to feed the engine. So if you lose 1 psi though the filter, again approaching EOL; The turbo is going to work slightly harder to get the boost needed, so it might end up in a slightly less efficient spot on its compressor map, but the effect on the engine will be unnoticeable. It'd be like if you were at 2000ft and drove up to 4000ft you'd lose about a lb. To get 25psi out, the pressure ratio might be 1.9 instead of 1.75 for example.

Turned out to be a faulty DEF pump, Eric had it diagnosed and replaced in a day. When GM saw the video, they were not pleased in the least and gave the dealer a roasting. Naming and shaming, if you have the documented evidence is key to giving incompetent dealers and mechanics the ass kicking they need. Seriously.........they had the wrong diagnostic port...........thats so weak. PISS WEAK.

It does seem that newly qualified mechanics these days are conditioned to be told by a computer what is wrong. Add to that, they are likely to specialise in one particular manufacturers products, and be required to keep up to date with all the continual changes to software and spec, (every thing older than 6 months is 'out-of-date,' and by a year is Obsolete in "Nerd-land"). Working on something new, (IE, something that THEY have never worked on before, regardless of age), is scary, as the good old-fashioned, common sense diagnostic process is, I am sure, something that they are not taught. Present them with an old car that has a carburettor, and they have NO IDEA what to do! Unless they grew up with a dad, (sorry, PARENT, as many lassies are car nuts as well :-), who instilled the enthusiasm in them for old vehicles, it is going to up to folks like you to keep these machines on the road!

With regards to the cooling system, put laundry liquid soap in the water. A full bottle and run it for a week or more. It will NOT hurt any rubber, water pump etc..Washing machines are full of pumps etc. It will clean out the oil and sludge in the radiator and cooling system. A good flush and fill with anti freeze/rust inhibitor. An old radiator repair guy put me on to it.I've.Done it heaps of times..

The tune up and k and n filter was probably 90 percent of thr problem....a turbo can't provide boost if it can't get air....the bus probably could have skipped the new Injctors and new turbo!!!
