He said that the return tube from the turbo broke.

 

So now he's just down to a stock LMM Duramax and a wife that's probably not happy.

That's truck number 2 in about a month isn't it. Some people go their whole life without breaking a Cummins and the pair has managed to do it in about a month. We should have an award for that or something.

Bummer. Yeah, no oil would do that. Of course, my guess is that if Dodge would put a REAL oil pressure gauge in, then you would have had some advance warning of low oil pressure and could have saved the motor. With the stock oil pressure sensor being a 6 psi switch, well, by 6psi I expect damage is done.


So, did it seize up or come apart? Will it crank over?

 

 

Have you looked at getting a used motor? Quite abit cheaper and straight bolt in. I know there are a few around the Alberta region. And the prices are actually pretty decent.

 

did ya look her right in the eyes and say "hey honey, since you're in the mood for blowing things....."??
