Cooling System Mistakes That Can Hurt Your Engine12 Aug58 min

Modern diesel engines generate a lot of heat, and keeping that heat

under control puts a huge demand on the cooling system. But how often

should you actually change your coolant, and what happens when you leave

it in too long?

Rislone joins us to talk about diesel cooling systems, proper coolant

maintenance, and some of the common mistakes truck owners make. We

discuss corrosion and contaminants that can build up over time, how

coolant condition can affect heat transfer, best practices when changing

coolant, and why maintaining the cooling system is so important on

modern Cummins, Duramax, and Power Stroke engines.
