99 Patriot Engine replacement
« on: March 21, 2015, 08:21:22 PM »
Engine dropped a valve coming out of exhaust brake, 21 Feb.  Was towed to nearest CAT service at Chandler, AZ.  Freightliner ordered a new engine and it arrived damaged.  CAT had Phoenix CAT repair damaged new engine.  Freightliner installed new engine and it was road tested 20 March.  Got an all clear from Freightliner to pick it up.  Thanks to Steve Huber of Chandler for finding the front cover of my generator slide as it was lost during tow.
