Cleaning Yet Another Cummins DPF 

Worked great for me! Thanks for sharing this info!

Great video diesel power I am enjoying the videos and they are very helpful and educational and informative keep them coming knowledge is power God bless

I just did this today on my pete. Finished with a regen. My emissions service light is no longer blinking when I start it. I also put a new diff pressure sensor while i was there. Should be good for another 250,000

This is satisfying, like pimple popping videos.

If you’re concerned about water staying in the filter you can bake these in an oven after cleaning. Most manufactures bake the filters at very high temps during the cleaning process as it helps release the soot making cleaning easier.

Learning for the future, Thank

Thanks again for another great video

Will you get the same results with cold water? How often do you recommend for the cleaning to be scheduled?

What material are the 2 little 'rubber" hoses made out of? Name of the hoses? Great videos! Clear and to the point! Thanks!

Could you post before and after flow results? Can you clean them back to near 100% ?

Im doing this.!!! I have 2 ISX 871’s and im done paying for DPF cleanings that evidently dont work for long afterwards

Do I have to do a regen after installation?

great video

Yeah u should...keep coming with the good content

Do you need to do a regen after you’re done pressure washing it and drying it ?

I clean mine with a 4" drill bit and works like a charm

Where are you located?

I'll be trying this on my 09 Volvo with Cummins ISX next week. I'll post how I worked out.

What kind of up stream problems were you having? And was the DOC heating up to regen temps?Thanks

What do clean the decomposition tube with? Is it just an R&R component?

Are you doing this in your shop? I don't know what the hot knife method is but I thought that was the only way to clean them.

this is a great video....thanks for showing.... I have a question if you don't mind, 12 cascadia with ISX15 the DOC filter looks like it was never replaced and I say this because in the DPF chunks are coming off so would it be a good idea to wash the DOC filter?

Propane torch burn from low stream end, then flush water from low stream end to upper end.

What material is the filter made of?

how long does it normally take to wash out a DPF filter?

i know you've said this in one of your vids, but i'm gonna remind everyone reading this comment. DO NOT, DO NOT get the presure washer too close to the cell walls. I knew that already, but i took it to my brother in law(he knows nothing about dpfs) he was trying to help me and he started presure washing it and messed it up really bad, i took it to freightliner luckly it was only $700 with the core. It was basically an exanchange, i gave them the dirty one, they gave me a clean one. (NOT NEW) A mechanic came to look at it, he said they could not give me credit for it. so i got in line for parts department, the guy barely looked at it and said it was good. I got lucky. Please becareful if you do it you're self. this method it VERY, VERY effective. I washed the other dpf myself and it came out perfect.

I guarantee if you soak it down with Liquid Dawn dish detergent it would be immaculate much quicker

Do a long regeneration, then wash, dry in oven and reinstall. If coolant has gotten on it, get a new one. They are usually full of ash because use of cheap oil and the egr

The water will just evaporate when in use.

Have you ever tried a steamer?

you have to be very careful with a power washer it could destroy the inside of the DPF and a few weeks when the insides are in shambles the truck has issues.

That water cutting action can't be good for the ceramic holding it together yiks. 😂😂😂😂😂

at what temperature do you pressure wash the dpf and at what temp are you blowing air to it ?

R you out here in cal?

Can this be done on a dodge 2014 2500 ???

Where I can buy diesel laptops

Never seen one so sooted. Must be lots of idling. I just fit a pair of exchange on service scheduled. Never have any trouble then. What gets me is spend thousands of dollars tarting trucks up but don't want the maintenance factors adding.

There goes the coating of PGM coating , do under stand that the coating you wash away will cause higher nox values and eventually scr failures due to high def dosing🤯

People saying dont do this need to do some research, they have water cleaning machines out

Worst thing ever made for trucks

Trump no 1

I'm not sure I would want to get caught doing this. Seems pretty illegal. The new Ultrasonic cleaning machine, combined with an FSX pneumatic cleaning and then baked to dry it out would probably be the best option for cleaning a DPF, because it doesn't put the waste back into the environment. It's collected and then recycled to make carbon fibers parts. It doesn't cost much to have them professionally cleaned anymore, with how much competition there is. So why wouldn't you just do it right?
