I just bought a used Dodge 3500 with an Edge with Attitude system already installed on it. The Edge is able to tell me what the engine gas temps are running. I am wondering what should the average EGT should be for this vehicle? This is different from engine temp.
EGT = Exhaust Gas Temperature.
The Edge probe is usually installed in the center of the exhaust manifold.
Cruising under light load you will see the temp around 800 degrees, give or take. If it goes up over 1200 you are pushing it a little hard or you have a fueling problem.
During aftertreatment regeneration your exhaust temps will reach 1800+ degrees further back in the exhaust system but your Edge guage will not tell you that.
If you just bought the truck you should contact your local dealer with the VIN to find out if the latest emissions recall has been done or not. It's recall # J-35 and it improves the emissions regeneration process greatly. If it hasn't been done the dealer will do it for you for free even though you are not the original owner.
Best of Luck!
