Morning.

Wifey and I have been binge watching 11 seasons of the Walking Dead this week.

Glad I kept my older diesel truck. Boy are guys having issue that try to use them as short trip daily drivers. What a disaster. I had to drive my 2019 for two weeks until I had time to do the rear brakes. Dang thing regened twice, and I didn't short trip it that much. The excessive regens cause fuel dilution in the oil which causes all kinds of other problems with the hydraulic lifters. Folks that use them as intended towing all the time have very good luck with the emission junk. What a nightmare.

Whether gas or diesel, my understanding is short drives (i.e. anything less than 15 miles and getting the engine to operating temps) are bad and can cause cylinder washdown.

Past few days have seemed to clump together, as I woke up around 11.00 AM not knowing what day it was. Now that I got my beauty sleep, time to continue binge-watching Netflix.

Nah, this is emissions stuff. DPF and SCR, etc. None of that stuff is on gas vehicles. I wish it wasn't on my truck. Pain in my butt.

Can anyone tell me where both the OEM engine air intake ducts start in terms of the air being sucked in?

Also, does the external CSC (ZSpeed CMAK) get affected by water exposure?

Was supposed to be hot and no rain, and while doing my bi-weekly scheduled drive, it started pouring equivalent to a FL hurricane and I did drive over an entrance road that had water collected (probably about 3 inches of standing water and going about 10 mph when pulling in). Checked the insides of the intake filter boxes and was dry as a bone.

They are at the front of the radiator core support from what I remember. At the top. No, the external CSC is not bothered by water. It won't suck it into the system.
