Always love your videos. Thank you for making them

Now I am thinking to buy DD16 bc you made it look so easy

I love your videos,Maestro Francisco.

One thing I'd like to add, I pumped the little primer around 400-500 times to get fuel flowing so instead, I manually pour diesel into the last filter housing almost to full, then start pumping and fuel will start flowing after the 4-5th pump, then after it fills, i put the filter in, pump till bubbles no more, tighten all 3 filters and pump some more till primer is hard. I then wait 5 minutes, give it another 80 pumps and when i go to start engine it starts super easily after 3-5 seconds of it turning over.

Thank you you were the only vid that i watched that addressesed the primibg and the gaskets. Thank you sio much for your thouroughness

I love the Cascadia, thanks for te video...

Very helpful thank you so much and please keep your videos up

Thanks for the video very helpful

Muchas gracias amigo estos videos son bien servicial!

Keep up to great work on the videos

I was told by a mechanic to never take the fuel filter off while waiting for oil to drain. It can fuck up the fuel pump or something due to lack of lubrication when you go to turn the truck back on. Do oil change, start truck for a minute to build oil pressure and lubrication back up, then do fuel filter

I have 2011 Columbia series 60 all 3 check engine lights come on and I have a code high exhaust temp high and very high... I replaced my 3 sensors on my dpf system. It was the cheapest. But could it be a doser valve or a turbo speed sensor the one that connects to the egg??? I cleaned and baked both doc and the dpf last week and it has a new dpf module out in November 2016. Is there anything else I should check?? There's no loss of coolant and it doesn't overheat. Please help.

Hello Francisco I really appreciate your videos and I wanted to thank you for being so detailed on them. I just bought a 2012 Cascadia and based on your video tutorial I did my first maintenance on my truck 😃 Unfortunately after changing oil and fuel filter and water separator i started the engine I can hear a strange irregularity noise like if the engine is sucking air or not running on all cylinders ! It didn’t do it before ! I drove the truck for a bit but when in idle there it is again. I took a video of it is it possible to send it to you via email ? I’d like to hear your opinion. Thanks

I've been reading and researching a lot on the engine oil capacity, and everyone recommends 47 qt which work out to be 11.75 gallons, that put the oil level way pass the MAX line on the dipstick, make no sense to me. I use 10 gallons, and that put the oil when settle for overnight almost at the max mark. Am I missing something I use to put 47qt ( 11.75 gal) and it would find a way to leak, since I've fix the leak and using 10 gal no more leaks and the oil is not above the max line.

@franciscoamayaYT

After the fuel filter replacement it is normal to have long cranking time.

Great video except your fill procedures are wrong. There is a Allen head plug that screws out on the filter housing and a special adapter that hooks to your overhead to properly fill all oil galleys before starting. Next problem is Detroit recommends changing one system at a time especially if your doing it without the proper fill procedures. Over time you will cause o rings to fail in the oil pick up system causing it to suck air going down the road while driving. This will be noticeable by a fluctuating gauge. Best of luck to anyone that uses this procedure long term.

Thanks for your comments, you can share your opinions. you are 💯% right, nothing to say against that. Those are good recommendation, I know that those are certified DC specifications. So far I have been doing the same process to all DD platform engines(EPA 07 EPA 10), all of them are over a million miles and they still working with no problems. I found that you can prefill the oil coolant module with new oil at the moment of service, I follow the process when I replace any lubrication component However, the process that you told above it is the right one.

Did some research about O ring lubrication. The rule of tumb is that a silicon base grease like Syl glide is safe on any rubber O rings . If the O ring goes on the oil or fuel systems they are already petroleum resistant so you can use any grease or a light coat of clean engine oil . If the O ring goes on cooling or A/C systems the silicone grease is recomended . If you rebuild a car brake caliper there's a special grease for the O ring and piston called caliper grease that is not going to react with the brake fluid . Little late but hope it helps
