I bought a 4 cylinder car off an old man. It had low mileage but he didn’t do enough oil changes. It had sludge like that all through the engine. I took the pan off and cleaned the pick up like u did. Cleaned the pan out, I took the valve cover off and was digging dried up sludge out of the head with a screw driver and shop vac. Messy job but got it much cleaner. Gave it a few oil changes. It never blew up but overall better. It’s still going strong. Even turbo’d it :)

@texaspowerman Жыл бұрын

I know you said you did a flush. Have you tried the BG oil flush kit? It’s not the add it to your oil kind of flush, has several steps. You drain the oil and change the filter, then run the cleaner through it on high idle for quite a while. Drain, change filter. Add the rinse oil, run at high idle. Drain, change filter and then fill with your regular oil. I’ve had a couple old crusty diesel’s that were sludge and carbon filled messes, the top end and pulling the pan they were remarkably clean. It wouldn’t have cleaned that nasty pickup tube but it will clear out your galleys and such. I’ve also used the CRO 505 carbon cleaner in the next change and it pulled even more deposits out. A clean engine is a happy engine. Never owned a Dodge but several Fords that got sludgy, nothing like yours. 😳

@ApresSavant 7 ай бұрын

Was an oil analysis done in the past? What additives did you use? Something went wrong somewhere with the additives as the soot doesn't normally become solid. The soot is carbon and if it exists as soft sheets we call it graphite and they slide past each other. Of course all those crystals for under heat and pressure, but something else happened for it to chunk up in the pan.

This is why the old timers poured diesel fuel through their engine every oil change. Curious, do you let the engine idle a lot? stop and go traffic, short trips? Thinking about buying a Grand Cherokee with the eco diesel at 85k on the clock, my use would be short trips around town with a little highway use.

Great video! I've had a '16 ecodiesel almost two years now and did the weight reductions along the way. Definitely like the truck a lot and I'm for sure interested in the longevity mods that you're talking about. Hope you make vids about them. Might as well try to keep the engines running as long as possible. Just wondering about your opinion about the oil pressure read-out on the digital dash "vehicle information" screen. Mine usually shows 40-50 psi oil pressure on cold start-up but also occasionally reads as low as 19/20 ish. I'm going to do this screen cleaning regardless but just for my info, is that accurate or where does it get the data? ECM? thanks again, Hunter!

Very interesting video. I use HOT SHOTS SECRET EDT with every tank of fuel. We also have a '16 Ram 1500 4wd Ecodiesel, and a '18 Ram 2500 4wd 6.7L Cummins. The fuel quality of diesel is awful. I use the WIX fuel filter because it seems to capture more dirt in the fuel. I started using the R-95 & R-99 fuel. The fuel filters were way cleaner after that.

It is not fuel that is the issue here. It is carbon build up because( as has been said) the engine breathing it’s own shit because of the EGR system used on these engines. You may have the cleanest fuel in town but the carbon build up via the oil contamination will continue if you have one of these engines using an EGR system. This engine is notorious for this issue, others not so much.

@jameseroh6544 7 күн бұрын

@robertdorr1769 - Fuel is an issue. Cleaner combustion from adding the Hot Shots Secret EDT, really helps cut down on regens and keeps the EGR and DPF cleaner. Also most Cummins 6.7L owners don't know how to use high idle. Which runs the engine @ 1,100rpm for a faster warmup. When I had to take a nap at the Coso Junction rest area in 110° heat. Using the high idle allowed use of the air conditioning while I napped for a few hours. And the DPF did not build up much at all. Just 2%.

Update: 2016 EcoDiesel - deleted 4000 miles ago - Dropped the oil pan today. Nothing like this was seen in my oil pan or my pickup tube. Changed my oil every 4000 to 5000 miles using only Rotella T6 5-40. Guess the detergent in Rotella is better at breaking down the sludge. I would recommend using a different oil sir. My truck has 109k miles on it.

Thank you! Nearing 140K and I have issues with my ecodiesel (2016) turning off randomly when I come to a stop with the sign “oil pressure low”. I bet this is the problem! I also have to clean the EGR and Map sensor again because I’ll also have the “service electronic throttle” come up. So my truck is just turning off or going into limp mode on me and it’s my daily driver. Doing this today! Also will be looking to do an engine oil flush. Any recommendations for a really good one? Even if multiple steps? Lastly, my HVAC stopped blowing air. Condenser is working as I can feel ac is cold, and when I turn on the A/C, I hear it wanting to start. So replacing the blower motor today too, as well as a taillight and a side mirror😂 but I love my truck. I agree it is comfortable and does it all really well! Hopefully I come back with a good update. Thanks again!

The copper seals start to leak by at the bottom and then combustion gasses make their way up and go under the valve cover because of the design of the gasket at the top of the injector.

I had a 2016 ED, I wish I would have kept it. 40k no issues. But I did have it tuned. Agreed with the EPA, they're a joke!

I put rod bearings in mine at 150K. Not one lick of sludge in it. Its a 2014 with 180K now. Why didn't you remove the pickup, clean it and replace the o-ring? The pressure gauge inside is only an algorithm, not an actual reading.. If you have any pressure it will show normal, until you have none then it shows 0 PSI ☠ Wanna eliminate the soot and increase drivability for FREE? You don't even have to replace the intake manifold. But if you do replace the intake, leave the EGR valve electrically unplugged or delete it and deal with the MIL. Also take the CCV tube off and run a hose from the engine to the ground NO KINKS OR LOW SPOTS!. Then plug the intake side of the tube. Deal with the MIL from that too. Neither effects regen cycles. If you can't deal with the MIL...delete it. Been a Dodge tech since the 90's. There is NO intake recall. I can't believe the amount of misinformation out there. 😢

What if I'm not able to delete? They're harsh about that here.

Glad I have the GDE oil pressure mod with my tune that I got from 2016. I scoped my truck and I have no sludge, been deleted since 30k miles.

@@HunterTuned GDE used to offer it. You replace the fake sensor with a real one, so I get actual oil pressure and not estimated on my dash. It was such a good option when they offered it, then when epa came in they for whatever reason cannot sell the mod on a tune anymore. I did it in 2016, you had to replace the sensor on the oil cooler housing for a different mopar one. Then do something else that I forget, I think cap another plug.

Just change the oil sooner...like 7k miles...use a better oil than that like liqui moly or fuchs titan...

Amsoil MS is the best. Penzoil Platnum is fine but shears around 7k miles.

@@turboleggy WRONG - The latest Diesel Supplement to the Owners Manual for all year Ecodiesels states: We recommend you use 5W-40 synthetic engine oil such as MOPAR or Shell Rotella that meets FCA Material Standard MS-10902 and the API CJ-4 or ACEA E9/E7 or ACEA A3/B4 engine oil category is required.
