Too Much Idling?

[smd]

What about the guys with the BD cool down timer?

Food for thought ... .

I went into service for a hard start situation and they told me I had 29% idle time on the motor, they actually showed me the computer pluged in and the readout of 29% they said anything over 19% I belive, IE dont' quote me on the 19% and it was a customer not cummins issue. So I had 2 options do nothing and lower my % or pay for a injector cleaning... . I said see you latter and I don't idle as much. I do have a EX brake now and I use high idle, truck runs great now.

I should have added that prior to going in I did sleep in my truck with it running all night, and then in the day time drive a short distance. This was over about a 3 month period of doing this so my % of real ideling would have been pretty accurate, at 29% And I could see where the injectors could have gotten gummed up or at least the motor wasn't worked like it should have been.
