Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) How to Smoke?

[Bunyan]

How do you blow the smoke? I know you have performance add ons. What rpms are you turning when blowing smoke? Just curious?

Smoke is your truck wasting fuel, so if youve got lots of fuel and some lag... you got smoke!

File off your injector tips or drill a 1/8 hole in the end... ... .....

You smoke when your air/fuel mix is too rich or low boost meaning no air to burn the fuel off.

If you want smoke trade your EZ for a smarty and you will have lots more of it.

a whole lot of fuel!!!!

 

[KFranco]

At what cost though?

a whole lot of fuel!!!!

Just wondering. For long term towing use not tractor pulls or 1/4 mile blowing smoke throughout most of your rpm's can't be good. This must leave (pardon the technical term) soot in the cylinder lining and valves causing premature wear?

eh, like I'm NOT going to get MORE miles out of this than I would get in a gas engine. I'll take SMOKE, more power, more torque, TONS more miles out of this engine than a gas engine anyday. When it pukes, I'll change it out and do it again!

 

[KFranco]

If it smokes likes crazy the mighty cummins just might puke sooner than later... lets hope not.

I like CHornsby theory ... . oh ya after you file your injectors should you have them professionally drill at a machine shop... hum. . wondering. l might try that. . LOL.
