Engine Swap - birdshill123 - 12-17-2008 14:45
Greg: Lots of rv'rs with Cat C7 and the 5.9 Cummins as well as other
engines have slobber tube problems. yes they are crankase vents but
they do slobber dirty black oil Our FC has one as well. In a rear rad
setup the slobber mixes with road dirt and it becomes like concrete on
the rad. Murder to clean as you cannot use a pressure washer. The best
way is to open up the bed, crawl on top of the engine and spray between
the rad and the CAC. Some people have built a wand of PVC and shove it
between the CAC and the rad. Lots of fun. Most have extended the
slobber tube so it runs past the cooling sytem. Many have installed
bottles, race car cans and other containers to catch the liquid.
