Engine complaints
This vehicle has an international dt466 egr motor. While driving down the road during the morning route at 55 mph, the driver stated that the vehicle suddenly started smoking from underneath the hood and it immediately shut down on her. This left the bus full of kids stranded on the side of the road as far onto the shoulder as the driver could coast. The cause was a blown high pressure oil line which comes from the high pressure oil pump and leads to the high pressure oil rail.
