I just remove my foam piece and it wasn't even installed right it was bent back about a third of the way on one side
First time diesel owner here, and your videos have really helped me out. I made my own "3rd hand" tool and done all of my own oil changes and I'll do my own CCV as well. Thank you Marion. You have saved me quite a bit of money. I really appreciate it.
Glad to help
I'm a first time diesel owner and I agree. Marion's videos are a great tool!
You are the Bob Ross of Ram repair videos. Thank you for the great content.
Can’t wait to see your new videos. Keep them coming.
Boy you got a deal $57 I just paid $112 . Never changed one before you made it look easy ! Thanks for the video
Mr Blair, first off - we really enjoy your videos. Always informative and entertaining. Just wanted to let you know that you CAN get just the intake "J " tube from K&N to replace the OEM rubber "accordian" style tube. I called K&N and gave them these part #s:
(1) INTAKE TUBE - #087276
(2) HOSE CLAMPS # 72 - #08671
(1) HOSE; 4-1/2" ID X 3"L HUMP - #08695
You can verify these part #s and see the parts diagram shown in the "Installation instructions" for the full intake kit: #63-1568 on K&N's website. Basically you are ordering the complete intake kit MINUS the filter. (I prefer to run the OEM MOPAR filters myself). I believe the total cost shipped was just a hair over $100 for those 3 parts. Simple 20-30 min installation with no modifications required. Haven't had one issue over the last 3 years on our 2017 3500. Exhaust brake and turbo whistle are a tiny bit more noticeable due to removing that OEM foam wrapped center baffle insert. Would love to see you do a video of a before and after install using your Banks diagnostic tool to see if there are any noticeable improvements. Take care.
Thank you for this. I thought I had to buy the K & N filter also. I'll look into this. Appreciate.
I spoke to K & N this morning and unfortunately, they won't sell the individual parts without purchasing the entire assembly with the filter.
Love your videos and always refer to them. I can't tell you how much time and money on maintenance you've saved me- thousands at this point.
Great to hear!
Thanks always for the videos Marion. Have you ever thought about one of those FuMoto drain plugs? 3/8 hose on the nipple the other end in an old DEF can open the valve you’re good to go. Won’t spill a drop...
yes I've had one sitting on my desk for about 4 years now but I just can't bring myself to using it
Have you noticed any difference with the foam out of the intake? I still have my foam in my 2013 and is still in good condition. What are your thoughts on deleting the CCV filter? I drive my truck less then you I only have 34,000 miles on mine. I do have problems with my front brake calibers dragging from lack of use.
No performance difference. The only difference is, you can hear the turbo a little better (very little) but not objectionable. If the foam is in good shape, probably just leave it in. Don't know how old the trucks were or the conditions they were in that had the foam deteriorate, probably pretty old. If I ever delete my truck, I might delete the CCV and put a little vent or just run it all the way to the ground like old school vents. IMO, I don't see much advantage to deleting the CCV right now.
This is the kind of old man owned truck I want, not the one where it’s neglected bit babied
Great video. Especially the follow up on the foam removal! Good to know everything looks good after a year, i removed my foam shortly after you did.
Yeah, nothing to worry about there
Now if you ran a catch can and ran hoses back and forth from catch can to turbo intake would u still need to gut the ccv filter?
Yes you could do that, gutting the filter Just illuminates from having to change it and possibly reduce crankcase psi. .
Marion how do you feel about cleaning EGR valve ? I have 33 k on my truck now. I think it calls for cleaning at 65k. Thank u
No, not needed on the 13 and up years. they don't require it.
Did you get the perform service showing up? I just got it. Is that ccv replacement only? Or is that egr cooler cleaning also?
Just the CCV, no service needed on the EGR if 2013 or higher.
If the engine oil is overfilled would it cause crankcase pressure and turn the Perform service light on?
Possible or could be the CCV filter.
What did you mean when you stated,, "you were going to lube up the filter itself and put it back in "
Just put a little oil on the O-rings. I do it on all o-rings but that's just me.
Have you ever done a brake pad replacement video on your 2500?
No I haven't done that yet on this truck.
Is Fleetguard the only brand you would buy for the CCV filter
yea or mopar
Good video, good information!
Thank you for sharing!!
My pleasure
What did you mean when you said, " now we are going to lube up the filter itself"
Sorry, I meant just put a little motor oil on the o-rings of the new filter.
I just changed my ccv filter and the truck is throwing the 40pdb code. Any ideas?
Yes, asumming it's OEM. MAKE sure the two plugins are installed on the back of the filter. It's looking for a pressure differential and not seeing one most likely. That's what those plugins are for.
@@MarionBlair awesome, I will take a look at that. Thank you!
I’m feeling a little nostalgic this morning drinking my cuppa coffee, I really enjoy your videos even after the third and fourth time I watched it. Really enjoy your videos learned a lot from you, I put to good use on my 2016 2500 ram Cummins. CA
Marion I can't believe I'm admitting this but I used your plumb bob idea to align my oil filter. It worked like a charm. Ingenious!
Great video as always Marion. Thank you for doing these.
My pleasure!
Thanks for the videos. I use them in reference to maintaining my truck. Any thoughts of using synthetic oil? I’ve been thinking about using synthetic oil year round. Do you get more turbo sound with the baffle removed? Mine is still in there.
Yes, if I still drove a lot, I would. Now I only put a couple thousand on my truck in 6 months so it's not worth the extra cost. Also, I have been hesitant to use a 5w40 synthetic (except in the north) but Shell has the 15w40 full synthetic now and I really like that. Prefer the Mobil products and hopefully Mobil and Chevron will go to that also. They do have a blend. But yes, synthetic is superior, especially in high heat, towing heavy etc... Also better for cold starts but we don't have much of that hear in La. shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/shell-rotella-t6-15w-40-full-synthetic-heavy-duty-diesel-engine-oil-1-gallon-550050467/12043805-p?product_channel=local&store=8836&adtype=pla&product_channel=local&store_code=8836&gclid=CjwKCAjw2a32BRBXEiwAUcugiFr4bC73p-wP0dBnTjDmCB9Rjb7AFAp4w28pfDyjkoAvFbXbbh9AfBoCYJAQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
I live in southern Nevada and run Valvoline Premium Blue Extreme 5W40 year round. Recall the 5W is only applicable in cold condition. Once operating temperature is approached it is 40. Just my preference to stick with the Cummins factory fill. 😉
Just did mine today and watched your video again.... thanks for doing such a through job... synthetic winter oil change around October for me.
Thank you again Sir!
Most welcome!
I enjoy your presentation style. You cover the information with a touch of humor and a dash of humility. Just a minor item, despite a large quantity of misinformation, fourth generation is 2010 to *present* fifth generation will not begin until the sheetmetal of the 2019 (non-classic) 1500 is applied to the 2500/3500 👍
Noted, thanks.
I love your videos...
Do you think you'd ever delete yours?
Yes, I'll probably delete. I expect an emissions part to break and that'll be the trigger to do it.
@@MarionBlair I know how well you detail your video are, please make good notes, how you found someone to do it and any updates to software.
I pulled mine today at 49k miles and it had a bunch of oil in it. I have a 2015 2500. Should it be like this? Thanks.
The CCV yes, full of oil is ok but not the air intake baffle or piping.
Thanks for another great video. I am coming up to my second time to change the crank case filter, (107K miles). The second one is a bit more involved.
Thanks for the update on the intake. I have been holding off to see if you were switching yours and what you find. I was looking at the Airaid one, (www.airaid.com/ram/2500/6.7l-l6-diesel/2014/), it is just the tube or you can get it with a “performance” filter element buts still using original air box. Looking forward to your next video.
Just got a reply about K and N sells just the tube>
(1) INTAKE TUBE - #087276
(2) HOSE CLAMPS # 72 - #08671
(1) HOSE; 4-1/2" ID X 3"L HUMP - #08695
About $100. I'm going to look into that. I'll probably go that route and do a performance test
Why is the second one more involved? I’m just coming up to my first one. Actually it’s probably gonna be a year or two. I’m still at 41k. Marion when you said you lubed the filter (CCV) did you just run engine oil around the edge with your finger?
@@brettegarr8064 the second time also requires cleaning the EGR components so there is some additional disassembly needed. Dealer charges $750-$1200 for that one but I bought all the stuff from Geno’s Garage for about $150. If you have access to a parts washer it would be a plus too.
@@brettegarr8064 ruclips.net/video/8GpgpQKxBY0/видео.html
@@MarionBlair I have the KN tube and box and filter. I love it.
How do you clean the bucket. Did my first driveway change a couple of days ago, poured the old oil into the empty new oil jugs and after draining for 2 days there’s still a coat of the oil on the sides and bottom, looks like a real nice coat of black high gloss paint, lol. The Lowe’s bucket works great with the top “ring” trimmed off.
Yes they do work perfectly and don't let oil splash out. I don't do a good job of cleaning the bucket but dawn is a pretty cheap degreaser. But I leave it back of my shop and don't worry too much about cleaning.
Marion, thanks for these great videos. I was thinking of installing a catch can to keep crankcase oil mist out of my turbo and intercooler. This filter is supposed to remove most oil before the vent goes to the turbo right? If I change this more often, say 40k miles instead of 60k...or maybe even sooner at 30k, do you think it would be beneficial in helping keep my turbo and intercooler clear of crankcase oil and mess? Thank you.
I really don't think so but I did change mine early just for peace of mind.
Marion, I know in the past you mentioned you were retired.
But, if you could go back to being 30-35 years old, what profession would you want to do?
A pilot. I got my commercial pilot's license in 1967 but the draft and supporting a family got in the way.
great instructions, how often you need to replace it?
67500... Marion is proactive and aggressive in his maintenance schedule.
Maintenance schedule says 54 months OR 67500 miles
Install a Fumoto easy oil drain valve, no wrench required to drain oil and you can shut it off while draining if you need to
I've had one sitting on my desk for 4 years and can't bring myself to install it.
Great to hear from you sir!
Thank you kindly
Great video like always very informative keep them coming. Merry Christmas to you and your family
Thanks, you too!
Get the Banks cold air intake. If you don't want to spend $400.00 on an intake, you could also get the straight tube that'll work with the OEM intake by AIR Raid. That'll replace the baffle entirely. I installed the Banks intake in mine and it provides better throttle response.
I couldn't find just the straight tube?
@@MarionBlair Yeah I looked at the instructions for the Air Raid tube, and it isn't all inclusive meaning that it doesn't delete the baffle, and only replaces the accordion looking upper rubber tube. For some reason, it's not CA legal, which makes no sense like most things in CA. Anyway, the Banks kit will for sure delete the baffle and the rest of your stock intake for that matter. I've been happy with the Banks CAI thus far, and it works for me since it's CA legal and actually improves air flow to a greater extent than other brands.
Excellent info! Thank you so much! I saved so much money watching your videos.
You are so welcome!
Marion is this the only maintenance requirement for the 67500 mile service? I'm seeing some mentions of EGR valve and cooler.
Yes, other than normal oil, fuel filter etc. No EGR/Cooler maintenance on 2013 & up. Cummins illuminated it due to lesser egr than previous models.
@@MarionBlair Thanks for the clarification. I have a 2018 with 13k miles your videos saved me 150 bucks by changing the fuel filters myself vs letting the dealer do it.
You don’t undo your oil cap to break any vacuum when changing oil?
Yes, I do. Alfonzo. There was a bulletin out years ago on this. Although, I have watched to see if it made any difference and didn't see any.
Great video sir!!!
Thank you!
Sir, as always great video, do you have any info on how tight to tighten the CCV cover bolts ?, been looking for that info......PS, I made a "3rd" hand exactly like yours, works great, Thanks
Breather cover = Tighten bolts to 10 N·m (89 in. lbs.). No need for a new gasket. I put a little oil on the 2 o-ring seals which go into the engine and turbo inlet. I didn't torque them as I didn't have an inch/ lb torque wrench. Just snug them up and it'll be fine. The cover seal just keeps the inside free of dust etc...
Happy to hear the 3rd hand worked for you. Once you get the hang of putting in place, it's a great tool. (If I say so myself, ha)
@@MarionBlair Sir, also, have you done EGR valve cleaning ? & EGR Cooler maintenance ?
What do you mean when you say "lube up the filter"?
There's a couple of O rings on it that I lubed up. Probably not needed just may slip in and seal better, maybe not. Kind of like lube your oil filter gasket.
Thanks Marion! Just curious, how many miles are on your truck now?
about 45k., since I got this truck I haven't really used it much other than for towing and a little local. It's still like new
Thank you Marion, I'm going to remove my foam right now. I have a 2014 Ram 2500 Laramie
Yeah I got rid of mine I heard stories, Probably on much older trucks coming apart but it's hard to really get any more information than that
@@MarionBlair thanks Marion
How often do you replace the crank core filter ?
Crank case. Every 67500.
If you leave the foam in the baffle how often are you supposed to change it?
Never, I'd would take a look at it after 6 or 7 years and make sure it's not deteriorated. Unfortunately, you can buy the foam alone.
Marion Blair ok thanks. Love your videos.
Airaid makes a tube to do away with the filter part# 300-986
Discountbandit has it for $145.
Thank you.
So 45k mike you got to change it?
No 67 5 I just changed mine early
I appreciate the videos. Great help as always.
Glad to hear it!
Marion, I have a 2014 as well. Was that first time you changed CCV filter? If no, at what mileages have you changed them. I’ve got 94,000 on mine and it was changed at the 67,500 interval. Also, have you done the EGR valve and cooler clean or did you pay the $1200+ for dealer to do it??
67,500 is the right interval. This one had 45K but the filter would have easily made 67,5K. On the 2014, EGR cleaning is not required but I'd probably do it myself. thanks.
Cleaning the egr is quite easy. Did it on my old 2008 6.7 many times. I recommend getting the egr cleaning solvent from Dodge as it works well and the two gaskets that go below the valve. Some times they can be salvaged when removing but not always and probably not on higher mileage vehicles. There is also a temp sensor I believe In the egr tube which gets a lot of soot on it and can throw codes certainly on early 6.7’s. Removing it to check and clean is a pain without the proper tool or home made tool ( which from memory I think is a very deep 1 1/4” socket which I had turned down on the inside to compensate for the electrical connector on top of the sensor).
policronia Thanks. The EGR itself doesn’t scare me. It is the EGR cooler that looks complicated.
Marion Are you sure about that?? 2014 EGR cleanings are required. First year to require it. I bet if you check, our 2014s need it at 67,500 and later.
@@jinwushih I can recheck, No EGR cleaning is required at 67,500 per my 2014 maintenance guide. The 2013 & newer DEF pickups use such little EGR that I guess it's no longer required like on the 2007.5 through 2012 trucks.
Love your Videos.
Thank you!
Great video marion
Thank you kindly
I have a 2014 and just turned 55k. Like you, I try and do all I can myself. My truck is stock except for level kit, new Fox pro shocks on all corners and 35’s. Also did the KN air box and tube. I’m doing my crank case filter as soon as part comes. And oil change and fuel filters also. I appreciate your videos as they are great and very informative. They have saved me time and agony. Safe safe and healthy.
