    Could use help with broken brake hoses on my new m1088

    Air dryer freeze up and other problems

    DO NOT ADD ANY ADDITIVE until you test your coolant! Too much or too little is bad. Its called DCA diesel coolant additive. Do a search on google to see what needs to be done, I am not too familiar to say with any certainty. http://www.acustrip.com/sca.html

    Air dryer freeze up and other problems

    I'm pretty sure there is 24v and 12v heaters. I know when I rebuilt mine it was asked 12 or 24v. Since yours is not stock, maybe you need to find out if its 12v cause I bet 24v would put a hurtin on it.
