Background
A safety regulation promulgated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration provides: "No part of the exhaust system
shall leak or discharge at a point forward of or directly below the driver/sleeper compartment." 49CFR 393.83(g). To comply
with the strict terms of this regulation, the lower elbow of the exhaust system was designed without a drain hole. PACCAR
subsequently received FMCSA's approval to place a small drain hole in the exhaust system below the cab/sleeper
compartment to prevent condensation and rainwater from accumulating and interfering with the aftertreatment system.
Procedure

Locate and mark the bottom of the pipe at the point where it is closest to the ground. This point is expected to be at the
approximate distance as shown in the following table and image.
