Idling a Cat 350

Recommended Posts

I understand that it is not a god idea to idle a diesel rather than driving it, but, for the next while, I will be unable to move my Excursion, 350 Cat. Is it less worse to leave it sit or to run the engine once a month or so?

If you cannot move it for at least 25 miles, let it sit. The generator is a different issue. You do need to run it once a month at about 1/2 load to drive out any moisture.

Ditto X4. If you have Aqua Hot, Oasis or  Wabasco heating, run it for about 10 minutes on the diesel side!

I guess I should ask, why can't you move it?

Merry Christmas! 🎅
