My BIL's construction company had a PSD that got water in the diesel. Not too sure if it was the cause of the turbo shidding the bed at the same time or not. He wound up replacing the whole motor because the turbo shot impeller pieces all through the motor. It was a 6.0 or a 6.4, can't recall which. He had me look at it, and I found a drain of some sort close to the frame rail - right under the drivers seat. I opened it up and got a lot of water out of there... way gross.

both of those engines were raging dumpster fires IMO. And oops someone never opened the fuel water separator

He's really hard on trucks... I borrowed one of his Duramax rigs to pull a 2005 F150 home (do the math, and you'll know why). The Duramax only had 75K on it, and I was needing to monitor the coolant level constantly.

Oddly enough, I pulled that F150 home from about 20 minutes from MORR. That's a pretty area down there.... it's hard to not say that about this state though.

Not really. It was made out to be a much bigger deal than what it was... which appears to be a clerical error.

He's based out of Hurricane, UT. I was in New Harmony, UT. Only a hop skip and a jump away.
