Correct, black smoke is unburnt fuel. But don't be fooled because there is smoke, doesn't mean there is power....

Mike what does your truck run in the quarter and why so much turbo? I would think an S400 would be pleanty...

for pulling stuck graders and work trucks out of ditches on the job

the smoke comes from when the injectors put more fuel into the chamber then the rods can use the black smoke is unused diesel the white smoke it used diesel

All the engines are already done and developed, it's just a matter of who's going to bring it out first.

The problem is, the manufacturers don't see much of a case for it right now. GM and Dodge are sharing hybrid technology for their trucks (which is rated better when it comes to CAFE), and Ford is bringing out their eco-boost F150, which should get near diesel mileage for less of a cost premium. To them, it just doesn't make sense to bring it out now. Especially since the cost premium over the standard gas engine will be ridiculous.

My guess is, we will see it eventually, but I wouldn't hold my breath for it. I'm thinking the deciding factor will be how well the new emissions laden bigger diesels do in the heavy duty trucks. If people are still willing to pay the ~$10,000 premium to get those big diesels, then they'll probably be willing to pay the ~$5,000 to get the smaller ones...so it makes economic sense. They aren't going to bring something out that just looses money right out of the box.

?? Could you get a little further into detail about that? Your saying your running a Rockwell for a trans?


I just recently got back from a Cummins school, mainly pertaining to new emissions. SCR, the use of Urea, ect. It's going to be interesting in the next couple of years.

Rockwell diffs, not a trans? This is what im trying to clarify.

What did they do to the diffs? Just install a set of lockers?

I love the loud obnoxiously loud roar of a diesel flying down the highway and loud smoke. Some day I'll upgrade from my half ton.

Also, just because the truck smokes... that doesn't mean its poorly tuned...
