Was wondering if you had some made or found a solution to this thanks

So if its suction then that wouldnt help in colder climates when the oil fill cap decides to collect condensation which is very common

unless the pcv valve wasnt operating right ill check into that i did remove my old one it rattled and i cleaned it some with brake clean put it back in til i get a new one

@@Michael-B41 Condensation will always build up there, it's Dodges design flaw. When you've driven for a while, park the truck and turn it off, hot moist air will obviously collect there, that will always be cooler so the moisture will condense and turn into that ugly sludge that's in every 3rd gen oil cap.

@@DIYDynamix good to know it freaked me out. it doesn't seem to lose coolant but i did have to add oil lol. i changed timing cover gaskets had a slow coolant leak and it has new water pump so i was freaking out. but its clear condensation little water droplets.

Where did u get that egr delete kit from?

05 2500, and maybe 1500, didn't have an EGR..... only a few years got an EGR setup and it seems kind of random which years, or which options determined which trucks had an EGR or not.

I’d love to have them made up but not sure how. Investment casting is the only easiest way, But I don’t think there are any resins that can’t be 3D printed that would handle engine bay conditions.

How do you have your eye deleted? Would you make a video of that ?

@anthonyirwin6698 9 ай бұрын

My EGR came that way. the 2500's don't have them.

If you ever get them made ill take one.

Did you do an egr delete?

@DIYDynamix 2 жыл бұрын

No, the 2005 2500’s didn’t come with an EGR. It’s deleted from the factory.

@@vTacozzYT I’m not sure where you can get the block off plate, but it must be available somewhere since mine came from the factory like that. As far as the ECU goes though, you can get an HPTuners MPVI2+ and just turn EGR off.

@@vTacozzYT it’s a great programmer/tuner IMO, I like that it gives you all of the control, but there are no canned tunes so you need to learn to tune your engine yourself or pay someone like Jay Greene for a custom tune. However with all of the EPA bullshit going on, HPTuners have removed a bunch of emissions options from their software I have older versions which still have those options though, and many older versions can be found online easily enough. But the programmer firmware might be an issue, I know some older non-updated programmers are highly valued.

3D casting and material you can do it with a 3D printer

@DIYDynamix 2 жыл бұрын

I guess you didn’t watch the video to see that I’ve designed something already.

There is another video of someone who addressed the same issue with the 3rd gens. He had someone with a 3D printer make one from the same material used to male the PCV. I would love to get your thoughts on this. I like your design actually. Let me know your thoughts because it seems that you are not willing to have your design made because of the material. Here is the link to the other guys video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGSXeZqha9tqbtU

@anthonyirwin6698 11 ай бұрын

I just haven’t really messed with it and don’t have the printing skills or resins to print it in a material that doesnt crumble when it’s hot. I’d love to actually have it made and use one lol

Thank you for your reply. I am going to try the one the other guy advertised. I will let you know how that went. I won’t forget ya!
