I think I explained what happened on our trip out to AZ, in Oct? To recap, it blew the intake hose from the turbo, to the CAC off, simple fix, but the one thing that still bothers me is the exhaust gas temp. On a long pull, this thing reachs 1400 degrees, has anyone else had experience with their C-9 and EGT's? Today, I went to Freightliner, to purchase a couple new OEM clamps, so I asked them what they thought. They said they wasn't sure, but that I should keep a close watch on it. What kind of an answer was that? What troubles me is how many guys are out there, sailing along, and don't have a clue how hard they are cooking their engines?
BTW, Caterpillar wanted $28.80 for the clamp, Freightliner, today, charged me, $7.60! LOL!!
