    To me it makes perfect reason to buy an OBS Powerstroke or 90's Cummins and rebuild it. It would cost less than a new truck too.

    Great news, just got my first diesel truck F350 SRW 6.7HO and will be keeping it a while. Having the reliability of an older diesel truck would be great.

    The thing that makes the most soot I've seen is altitude. You have to keep your foot out of it until you're on boost in the mountains.

    11-16 super duty egr cooler cores the grid clogs with soot, and the occasional valve failure, on the 17-19 trucks they made the egr cooler core bigger from the factory but I’ve seen high idle trucks clog the upper/lower intakes with carbon and cause codes

    I hope the 24 6.7 powerstroke kit comes out soon
  • @drewmurray2583
    doesn't the 6.4 have a little filter or catalytic converter in the pipe going to the egr? I swear I have seen that before. I think it was the 6.4
  • @nicklasalle1889
    I have the filter on my 24 duramax, how does the filter self clean? Wouldnt everything end up in the engine when it was self cleaning?
  • Just curiosity; what would happen if you connect the EGR downstream of the DPF and filter that instead?
  • Where does this filter go in the whole path on a 2020 6.7 Cummins H/O?
