What steps have you guys taken to clean out the CAC, exhaust pipes etc. We have our own DPF oven but I'm not taking the chance of burning the shop down cooking the oil soaked DPF, I'll be sending that out to have it cooked. Just curios as to what steps and products or procedures you guys use.

CAC had very little debris in it, I'm having International flush it out for me. Replacing the crank case breather and having the DOC and DPF cooked so we should be good to go.

I ended up flushing out the CAC myself International wanted $725 to flush it for me. I laid it on its back and filled it with degreaser and let it marinate all day long then ran a water hose opposite the air flow for about an hour then set an air hose to blow thru it till it dried up. Worked fairly well.
