BOISE STATE FAN

Posted February 20, 2009

I have a 2003 2500HD that seems to be having some Issues. Last year the air cond. Would cycle cold to hot and back randomly. I was under the truck the other day and found a belt sitting around the bottom of the engine. Called the mech. he said the compressor probably seized. That is the only time he has seen the belts break like that. Any way to test this theory or is that probably the issue?

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

- Oil Consumption

  There are probably a few factors involved with the higher oil capacity of newer engines that have a similar engine displacement relative to older engines as well as the smaller turbo pickup engines with a higher capacity for their engine cubic inch size. More oil giving a longer engine run time before the oil is contaminated and sheared down etc. More cooling available with more volume. More oil consumption cushion before bad things happen. The horsepower newer engines put out would certainly play into the higher volume of oil that helps control the temperatures as after all engines of a similar size putting out twice the horse power means more fuel used and more heat created requiring a better coolant package with coolant and oil with oil cooler etc. To show the engineered difference for example in oil volume for the very same engine series/block/cubic inch displacement on a JD four wheel drive tractor I have that is rated at 425 hp it has an oil capacity/pan sized for 44 quarts, the largest series of tractor of that time was rated for 530 hp and had a pan capacity of 63.5 quarts.

  It would be coincidental for both front brake hoses or calipers to fail at the same time. There is an old thread on here of similar a similar issue, not sure how best to direct you to it - but I would be looking at the brake booster.
