How is your your oil dump ventilation doing? If you have too much blow by the oil mist collects on the radiator which attracts dirt. T
That issue is a 2nd gen issue, so not relevant to 3rd gens. Then 3rd gen 5.9!dumps it's crankcase vent behind the axle. The 6.7 recycles it, but I don't recall where...intake I think.
I agree. However, the filter below the valve cover can fail. 3rd Gen blow by also possible if over filled during an oil change. Only trying to help the OP save money. Radiators in these trucks are a low fail item.
Yes it can, but unless the truck is only driven in reverse at high speed it won't collect on the radiator, it dumps aft of the front axle and goes under the body. It's 2-3 feet aft if the radiator, unlike a 2nd gen.
