Default slow but sure
My small shop does not process a large volume of vehicles so diesel EGR/induction cleaning opportunities aren't that frequent, hence the delayed post in this thread. Anyways I just completed my first 6.7L cummins cleaning and all went well. The adapters for the cummins came with instructions that had really good pictures and the procedure was straight forward. Easier than the duramax. Vehicle did not regenerate after the cleaning and live dpf data indicated no increase in pressure.

Attempted to perform a EGR clean on a 2014 RAM 6.7L cummins. EGR components on this year are updated/different than my current EEDF400 adapters for the 2008 6.7L cummins. I call my SO rep and asked why I couldn't find any compatible adapters for a '14 cummins on SOs website. He stated SO killed the EEDF400 due to lack of sales. Good while it lasted I guess. Anybody know if other brands offered similar products to clean diesel EGR systems? I'm just kind of bummed this investment is no longer serviced.

I'm pretty sure they are still available, just not through Snap-on. That tool was made by an outside company and sold by Snap-on. I'll try to find out where it might still be available.

you can purchase the same diesel egr system cleaner from terraclean.net they specialize in diesel carbon busting products. Your egr cleaning system is still serviced even though SO gave up on them. Check out motorvac.com for all the accessories and fittings. I got one of these about a year ago only because we only work on diesels here and I cant even count how many times I have used it...it seems to work better on dodge ram 6.7 and the service is meant to keep the passages clear not unplug years of neglect in one service.

MotorVac is offering their re-brand, called DieselTune. It's good to see the system is still serviced and utilized. Looks like all replacement parts, detergents, and adapter kits are available through MotorVac.
