Joey Mack Posted October 28 Share Posted October 28 For the Mack, or the dozer? Red E.L.C. is common for the Mack. Change the conditioning filter every 2 years, or less depending on what the test strips tell you.. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74688-what-coolant-you-guys-recommend/#findComment-560959 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Heinz Posted October 28 Share Posted October 28 What engine is in it? I haven't seen an MP engine without a coolant filter, E7's and back are a different story. We run almost exclusively red coolant in anything regardless of age here.

Joey Mack Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 It may not have a filter.. E.L.C. red coolant Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74688-what-coolant-you-guys-recommend/#findComment-560996 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Heinz Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 It likely won't have a filter, but it might have a screen in the water manifold hoses, I don't have a picture at the moment. I don't think those need to be changed all too often though.

The Heinz Posted November 4 Share Posted November 4 I looked into some aftermarket air cleaners for you, but in order for it to not be $1000, you might need to check some scrap yards or parts trucks out! Even PAI is proud of their air cleaner. On 10/29/2024 at 10:14 AM, Joey Mack said: No screen in that year. Were the screens added in the ASET engines?
