Silent Diesel Killer…Diesel Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT)! #diesel #egt #dieselengine

Video Description

Exhaust Gas Temperatures (EGT's) are killing you're Diesel, and you don't even know it. Well, the EGT's won't kill your engine, but they will tell you if something else is trying to. EGT's tell you how hard your engine is working. The harder the engine is worked, the higher the EGT's will be. Additionally, if there is a failed components causing an intake or exhaust restriction, or an over-fueling situation, the EGT's can spike and indicate the problem. But you'll never know that unless you install a Pyrometer to measure your EGT's. In this video, I cover: 1. The Science of EGT's (Combustion Temp vs EGT) 2. Proper Pyrometer Instal (Thermocouple tech and Placement) 3. How to Control EGT's (Tuning, Exhaust Mods, Intercooler, Turbos, Driving Style) Magnetic Zip Tie Mount: https://amzn.to/3Pfy76r Informative References and Articles: https://www.motortrend.com/reviews/0607dp-exhaust-gas-temperature-basics/ https://official.bankspower.com/tech_article/why-egt-is-important/ file:///Users/djs61/Downloads/4_Appendice_PistonsandEngineTesting_Mahle_GmbH.pdf Follow my Shenanigans in Real Time: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/freedomworxofficial/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/freedomworx/ 00:00 Introduction 00:51 EGT vs AFR 02:17 EGT Science 08:22 Pyrometer Install 15:06 How to Control EGTs
