Diesel Mechanic in Seattle
 

One of my 250hp cummins 5.9bta's runs hot. I've been carefull to keep
the rpm's low enough that it doesn't overheat but I need to find
someone who really knows what they're doing to fix this. A highly
recommended mechanic already tried most of the obvious things to no
avail.

Can anyone recommend a diesel mechanic in the Seattle area?

Thanks,
Neil

I take it that it requires running under load to overheat. Take it for a
short trip, feel the hoses for tightness/pressure. Follow the waters path
in and out of heat exchangers, transmissions, exhaust manifolds etc. If
hose going in is tight but going out slightly spongy there is your problem.
Blockage!

Call Larry Stewart. He's the Perkins guy, not necessarily the Cummins
guy, but if he doesn't want to tackle your problem he will know
*exactly* where you should take it for no-BS advice or service. Larry
has diesel for blood. 206-789-4600
