Still confused? Give us a call!
Crank Case Ventilation Filter
A commonly forgotten maintenance item, the crank case ventilation filter is the first step in addressing your "Perform Services" warning. Cummins recommends replacement of this filter every 67,500 miles. Failure to replace this filter can trigger numerous check engine lights.
EGR Valve
An extensive cleaning of the exhaust gas reticulation valve is also required as part of this routine maintenance. The valve itself must be disassembled and cleaned to ensure proper functionality. In extreme cases we may need to soak the disassembled parts overnight in a cleaning solution depending on severity.
EGR Cooler
The final step is the most time consuming. A complete cleaning of your exhaust gas reticulation cooler and an overnight soaking to ensure proper functionality.
