I have a small fleet of 9 kenworth t680's, all with Paccar MX 13's. The service manual says 60k Miles between services for linehaul applications. I've been doing all filter and oil changes at no less than 40k miles. All units have over million miles stock. Never done anything to them except turbo changes on a few of them. And I said miles even I am in Canada. Same service intervals even in winter, our Canadian winter's. All of my units pull turnpikes (2 x 53 footers) averaging 110k lbs daily. I'd say, fuel quality is a big factor on these motors. Keep trucking people 💪💪
Makes me remember J.B. Hunt and the annual oil changes and fuel filter changes lol. Im glad I always drove the internationals with the cummins and not the international engines.
I get 30k out of all of my filters. Sadly though they are having lots of issues with main bearings. I just had to get a short block put in mine at only 147k after it spun a main. There were 4 other trucks at that dealership with the exact same issue, all under 250k miles.
We’ve been seeing an issue with Asphaltene growth in fuel. It’s especially a problem on common rail engines. Turns filters black and slimy in the matter of days.
I don't know where you here them say 75k service intervals but there chart at the dealership has said 25k service intervals for the two years I've been there buying parts and shit.
They're nt too bad I guess. We have one in our fleet and its nudging 900,000miles. It hauls two trailers, many times around 65t of bulk liquid. Although not particularly powerful it isn't pathetically slow on hills either. It does It's job, is reliable and is thoroughly boring. In some ways one gets a grudging respect for it.

Jb is the biggest joke
@tips4truckers252 they paid decent, that's all I cared about.
@obsolete208 I hear that especially with a family
What's A paccar ?
Semi truck engine manufacture

sounds like dirty fuel to me, not lies from paccar.
Possible

@@mikemorse8592 yeah mine keeps turning black
Is there a treatment/Additive that could prevent this?

Makes sense
Mi camion es un 2021 t680 paccar 13 with 12 auto speed i change the oil every 50000 miles since I buy in December 22 nothing happens
Muy bien
I do my PM's at 25k, oil and fuel filters at the same time.
Perfect
Manufactures say things because it helps them not because it helps you.
Spot on sad world today
5000 miles or 500 hours
I have a PX-8. Once I fixed the poor turbo design....it runs OK. Has almost 20,000 hours on it. Just waiting for it to POP.
My first paccar blew up with 700 miles the second day I had it
I wouldn't doubt it. Anything after the p pump models are junk.
So....dirty fuel in the States!?
I think that's the cause especially with winter blend
Hmmm…I thought the biggest lie was that PACCAR engines are worth anything to begin with 😂

They make a good paperweight
@ThePaulv12 after 600k I will admit not as bad as people say
Never seen one that runs correctly. Junk
Paccar engines will ruin u!😮
Absolutely
