No contamination from coolant was found either so Premier had no part in hiding anything.
Is your thread title update saying you had a 2nd valve failure? You're down again? Feeling bad for you, if that is the case......

Not us, we're the second owners of the rig and it happened to the first owner also, but his was covered under the Cummins warranty as was the first and second turbo. We're on the second top end rebuild and the third turbo at 45,000 miles.

Different subject but going to cost us again: Wife was diagnosed with liver cancer in June, just had her first chemo treatment last Friday. Would never have bought the rig had we known about the cancer but you just never know what is going to happen!!

Haven't gotten all the bills for my DW's first chemo treatment. $76,100 so far! Boy am I glad we have Medicare and kept her old insurance under Cobra! Looks like we are 100% covered for this. Costing us over $1,600 a month for health insurance but still cheaper than paying for the treatments ourselves!
Anyway, no more reports on the cancer on this thread.
