Just finished switching one out on a Western Star. Took the front wheel and step off to make enough room to get in there. After zip tying some air lines out of the way, the job was better. Still pretty tight. Needed a mirror to see the back bolt and nut. Your video really helped me prepare. Thank you!
I like do way you work brother, very detailed!! I wish we have mechanics on those truck stop and dealers like you! Unfortunately not! I m tired to deal whit apprentice who just get out the school!!
Wha a great tutorial video, I’ve seen couple other videos about this but, you having the engine out of chassis make it more easy to see details and for you to explain things better. Thank you for sharing your knowledge God bless you and thank you again.
Your video on point. Couple tips...useing small flash light you can see that last T30 bolt..i changed to different tool thought was T30 and it wasnt so got kinda nervous went back to T30 and taped with thr side of a hammer to sit in bolt cause stripped a little. I used small flat head screw driver to pop the tabs. The bottom 18mm was toughest. Used 3/8 socket with small wobble head extension from the inside of the fuel lines and stuck longer extension in between the still connected fuel lines and left it there till was ready to put back on. Thanks Video was a huge help.
I was able to replace one on my Vanhool tx dd13 did everything you did and prime my coach change the fuel lines o’rings. Now my surging went away and also my rough idle. Thank you
You made Such a great, informative, professional video. Very detailed. You helped me and many more truckers. God bless you .Take care. Please keep teaching us.
Just did mine on a 3 filter system. I had to take off that part of the fuel pump that that sits under the fuel quantity valve to completely move the bracket to get to that back screw on the valve. Definitely need the right tools. Very tight hard to work in area. I put it back together in a fraction of the time it took to remove.
@@notkirill6991 I changed mine because it had a constant lope type surge while it idled. That's the best way I can describe it. It started and drove like normal though.
@@spencerwillis7578 I’m having this issue too, but when it’s cold I get a bit of a delay on throttle response in 9&10 gear. Did that happen with your truck as well?
@@cesarvelasquez9436 I did this repair in a truck that I had a driver in so I don't know for sure because I didn't drive it regularly but he never mentioned this issue to me.
I had a really bad idle problem and I was thinking on replacing that part but before you can clean the inner fuel connector on water separator there is a white plastic bypass that mine was clogged with silicone or paper. Did that and my problems are completely gone!!
DETROIT REBUILD SPECIALIST I have a DD15 2015 whit 545000 miles I need to get the over head valve adjust maybe some day I will have the opportunity to stop by for you do that for me !!
Have you ever had a fuel filter housing leak coolant internally? I changed injector cup seals on a dd13 but fuel filter housing is still filling up with fuel.
I have a 2014 freightliner Cascadia with a Detroit DD 15, and I do not have those hoses that you just connected in order to get to the valve, are you familiar with that or no why?
Would the quantity control value if leaking internally throw a code for pressure limiting valve? I am kind of new at DDS and have been struggling with one tractor that keeps throwing a high pressure leakage code, with no external leaks.
If a driver has mechanical knowledge , he can save a fortune. I know a guy who owned a 10 year old volva 2 million kms plus, and it ran very well and ran without issues for a year
Hi, Truck truck with dd15 cranks no starts, fault spn 157 Fmi16. Changed fuel filter housing, and HP fuel pump , still same code and no starting. And advise please
Hi my name for you I have a shop in Brookfield. I have a problem for DD 15 lost a prime and want to talk to you about this more. Maybe give me a little information please thank you.
I paid a shop in Wisconsin a lot of money to change this part and it still makes the surge sound afterwards. The owner’s response was sorry bud must have been a bad remanufactured valve. and then didn’t offer to fix it again. And my engine still sounds like s***
Ok but seriously why does a fuel quantity valve give out? And will it cause major damage to the engine if left for an extended period of time? Say like 6 months with a looping idle
Most of this is completely unnecessary. Just take fuel line bolt out. Pull out by hand, drain coolant, remove bracket, remove regulator and go in reverse.
Call me anal but I would continually clean as I went with brake clean fluid and I would make a plastic bung that goes in opening before I did any surface cleaning then after cleaning again with brake clean I would remove bung to drag any contamination out with it, my though is to have a bung with a little handle in centre and made to take old oring so when it's removed it wipes the bore clean, see told you I'm anal or OCD whatever
Hi Casey, I have idle stumbling problem with Detroit 60 series 12.7L 2003. RPM goes up and down in low idle but it is fine with fast idle. Does Detroit 60 series comes with the quantity control valve?
You are a treasure of information I love your videos keep them coming and we appreciate everything you do

Great video. Thank you so much for the information. Quick question after replacing this do we need to calibrate truck or not ? God bless you.
Good information
I deeply appreciate you to post all this videos, you are great mechanic, thank you!! Where you work actually?
I own and operate Detroit Rebuild Specialist in McDonough Ga.
DETROIT REBUILD SPECIALIST Great, some times I go to Florida maybe some day I will have a opportunity to stop by at your place!
DETROIT REBUILD SPECIALIST I have a DD15 2015 whit 545000 miles I need to get the over head valve adjust maybe some day I will have the opportunity to stop by for you do that for me !!
will the impact be able to fit with the steering column in way?
Have you ever had a fuel filter housing leak coolant internally? I changed injector cup seals on a dd13 but fuel filter housing is still filling up with fuel.
Hi can we put rtv sealent on the mating surfaces if we suspect a loose installation? Thanks
I have another question. Do you have to change fuel pump in order to go from 3 filter system to the 2 filter system?
I have a 2014 freightliner Cascadia with a Detroit DD 15, and I do not have those hoses that you just connected in order to get to the valve, are you familiar with that or no why?
Have you done a video showing how to replace the fuel pump on a 113 small nose cascadia, it’s so tight that there is almost no way to work it
What is the part number on a dd15 through 2015 Freightliner cascadia evolution? For the control module?
Thanks!
what year engine is this dd15? is it recommended or suggested to replace fuel line o rings?
Would the quantity control value if leaking internally throw a code for pressure limiting valve? I am kind of new at DDS and have been struggling with one tractor that keeps throwing a high pressure leakage code, with no external leaks.
Would the surge hurt the injectors?

Good Evening A code just popped up on my Dashboard SPN 1077 FMI 14 any guidance on what I should look for please and Thank you
Really good job and well explained can you tell me tow stage valve position also thanks
Thanks for the info. What would be a fair fee for labor on this job?
4 hours.
Can you show how to diagnose and replace an air compressor?
Hi,
Truck truck with dd15 cranks no starts, fault spn 157 Fmi16. Changed fuel filter housing, and HP fuel pump , still same code and no starting. And advise please
Yo did you figure this out? Literally have the same exact issue right now.... please lmk
Man can we get a video on a fuel pump change out and a overhead valve adjustment
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Does coolant need to be drained like the ddc service procedure says?
No
How many hours you should charge for this job in the shop?
Ok
What are symptoms of bad quality control valve?
When I changed mine it didn't just pop in. I had to tighten bolts to get it seated. Maybe an O ring popped loose?
How did it run when you were finished?
Fine for 12 hours. Then same noise again and another failure. Next I'm replacing the whole hi pressure fuel pump.
Had my quantity valve changed, and now my truck won’t turn on without starter fluid ? What you think is the problem?
Lost sealing somewhere. Probably at qcv.
How much does that piece coast ?
I can't take my braket off with that hose in the way how do u remove that hose infront of braket I see in your video it's not on there
How do u prime fuel after job is complete for diy person.
👍
Show us how to replace the engine harness on dd15
Where you guys located
Hi my name for you I have a shop in Brookfield. I have a problem for DD 15 lost a prime and want to talk to you about this more. Maybe give me a little information please thank you.
Where are you guys located ?
Got it! remove the motor to take the quality control vave!
I want to see ya doing it that way in a 3 piece fuel module
Me also. I have a three piece.
The housing needs to come down. Even with all the lines disconnected, there’s not enough room in there to reach the back fastener
@@_jrides_ Thats not true
DETROIT REBUILD SPECIALIST perhaps on a two filter system. I’ve never had luck on a 3 filter set up, didn’t realize this was a 2
@@_jrides_It can be done very easily with the correct tools on a 3 filter system without removing the fuel filter module.
Where is your shop located?
could the control valve, cause you to burn more fuel than you normally would? an also could it cause you to lose power?
I need to know the answer to to this question too
Same question here
Where are you located ?
Do that again in chassis on a DD13 EPA10 3 filter system in a M2
My truck was giving me 3 .5 milles per gallon ofter 6 hours of driving finly Rich up to 5.6. Can enybody tell me what to look for
Sir Where is your shop located at?
Whats the estimated cost for the valve,if u may?
3-500 now
Ok, what were the indication it was defective??
Surging at idel.
I paid a shop in Wisconsin a lot of money to change this part and it still makes the surge sound afterwards. The owner’s response was sorry bud must have been a bad remanufactured valve. and then didn’t offer to fix it again. And my engine still sounds like s***
In chassis ...the fuel filter house has to come off ...unless you are plasticman the housing has to come off
That is NOT correct.
It is if you got sausage fingers!!
Ok but seriously why does a fuel quantity valve give out? And will it cause major damage to the engine if left for an extended period of time? Say like 6 months with a looping idle
@@carbombtorres1761 no sir. It won't hurt the engine. It will just surge and sound sick
Well thank you for the reply and info ...keep up the good work brother
Icp on a dd15 location 2016
That back one need some hair around it
Just as easy unless its in a day cab lol
Definitely not that easy when you have the 3 filter style and limited space. If youve had one with difficult torques bolts to remove then youd know.
That valve is the biggest part of the expenses of a entire pump.
It make no sense to do the valve replacement instead of a pump replacement.
No way are you taking the bracket off in chassis.
I have on a western star. Was a pain in the ass but it’s achievable
With inflame is not that easy even with all the right tools it is not fun BIG STRUGGLE
Most of this is completely unnecessary. Just take fuel line bolt out. Pull out by hand, drain coolant, remove bracket, remove regulator and go in reverse.
Really not the same story on chassi my guy.. just waisted over a day to get it off
Call me anal but I would continually clean as I went with brake clean fluid and I would make a plastic bung that goes in opening before I did any surface cleaning then after cleaning again with brake clean I would remove bung to drag any contamination out with it, my though is to have a bung with a little handle in centre and made to take old oring so when it's removed it wipes the bore clean, see told you I'm anal or OCD whatever
This video is a joke.hes not working in a real world situation.
Hi Casey, I have idle stumbling problem with Detroit 60 series 12.7L 2003. RPM goes up and down in low idle but it is fine with fast idle. Does Detroit 60 series comes with the quantity control valve?
Where you guys located
When you get a new fuel pump does it come with it?
