2005 DieselView and High Oil Consumption. - todc - 03-28-2018

I have a 2005 3600 Open with Cummins QSB 5.9 engines and I am struggling with two problems.

First, I need a new (used) DieselView Display.  I suspect there are some used ones out there but haven't found one yet.

Second, one of my engines is consuming a lot of oil (about a quart every hour or two).  I have Cummins NW (I'm in Seattle) coming out on Friday but wondered if anyone has had a similar problem.  I have a clean bilge, no smoke and clean hoses on both sides of the turbo.

Thanks for any thoughts on either issue.

My guess is you have a leak in your oil cooler heat exchanger. Is your oil HE raw water cooled ? Do you see an oil slick on the water near the exhaust when idling in calm water ? If your oil cooler is antifreezs cooled look for oil in your expansion tank.
I had this problem with my Volvo diesel years ago. Can't help you with the Diesel Display.

If the vessel view is the one I think it is I think I have a brand new one
