Details

What's wrong: Inconsistent aeroquip hose tightening procedures and supplier's assembly inconsistencies can cause leaks of hydraulic fluid.

Why it matters: If a severe hydraulic leak occurs, hydraulic fluid can besprayed on the engine manifolds or accumulate on the turbocharger and insulationand then be ignited by the hot exhaust manifold, turbocharger, or muffler,resulting in an engine compartment fire.

The fix: Steam clean the engine compartment, run the system to detect leaks, re-torque any leaking connections to specifications, and replace fittings/hoses that cannot be made leak free.
