    Bill,

    That wire “gang” into geny (white connector ) is the mother line for all gen functions.

    Making sure that connector contacts and connection is 100 %…. it’s worth a extra look see.

    Yes, I bought a can of Rain X that afternoon! Haven’t had a chance to pull them off and try adjusting yet.

    “CAT and Detroit have both exited the market and Navistar’s EGR based engines don’t appear to be meeting the EPAs requirements”

    Navistar was, or still is, involved with the EPA in litigation about the Maxxforce engine they are using. Some of the other manufacturers sued the EPA / Navistar about credits that Navistar was using to be able to sell engines today. I don’t know where it will shake out, but Navistar will be in deep trouble if they have to redesign or switch to another engine to sell their trucks. I heard that the big deal to the other manufacturers was that the Maxxforce engine did not need or use DEF and that gave International a competitive edge. The service rep from Navistar told me horror stories about what drivers were putting in that DEF tank when they didn’t have DEF to put in it… Use your imagination on that one. He said that owners of the Maxxforce were so lucky they didn’t have to deal with that one.

    We used to be 100% Cat in all our trucks, and Cat’s engines were less than stellar the last few years we had them. We spent way too much money keeping them running., so I can see why one would get rid of that problem.
