What sets it apart is its focus on the cooling system side of the job: why you must pressure-test for leaks, how to vacuum-fill coolant to purge air from the EGR cooler, and the high-altitude pressure context. Useful for 2655 owners tackling this themselves, though it skips the actual removal steps.
Posted by the Jason Alexander channel, apparently an owner-operator sharing first-hand experience from their own property, with no channel description to indicate any commercial affiliation.
You need to remove the fuel filter housing and the starter to access the brass plug where the block heater is located.
To check system integrity for leaks. The gauge held 20-21 inches PSI for about ten minutes with no drop, confirming no leaks at his 7000 foot elevation.
Pouring coolant in normally can leave air trapped in the EGR cooler, creating a hot spot that can cause serious engine damage, so a vacuum fill purges the air.
Yes, disconnect the negative cable first since you must disconnect the starter wires, to avoid arcing or shorting something out.
