I know there are alot of guys out there with this problem, so hear is a simple, $10.00 fix. The 12 & 24v engines have an oil collector that sits on the front of the engine. The collector (Pill box) fills with oil and when the engine is on an incline or decline the oil runs out and is sucked through fan and builds up on the radiator causing overheating issues.

Hear is what you'll need:
-6ft of 1/2 PCV pipe
-2, 90deg female couplers
-1, 90deg female/male (non-threaded) coupler
-1, 90deg female/male threaded coupler
-1, straight coupler female, threaded on one end, non-threaded the other end
-1ft of clear vinyl hose
-2 hose clamps
-1 can of black paint (I used flat)

















Thanks to MPM1973. His initial idea I made a few changes.

I got rid of the breather bottle and ran a hose right past the gear box so it dont splash all over the front -

that's what I did -

Great write up but you can take it a step further and remove one of the frost plugs on the drivers side of the block and drain it back in there - I haven't done that on my get up but accordingly to Cummins this is exactly what they did with the ISBE trucks. -

As a matter of fact I rebuilt my orignal pipe in the same as your design and so far it works flawless... -

If I recall the rear pipe should be about 24in. I never had a problem with oil on the driveline. -

I think your right... (Have to find my notes).

As for me my front driveshaft has signs of oil residue but it doesn't bother me in the least bit. But the time winter is over my front driveshaft is clean... -
