Thu, 07 October 2004 04:35 Most diesels pump out the smoke coz either they haven't had their injectors cleaned (I run 20mL of injector cleaner with each tank of 60L. 1L bottle lasts about 1 year at $20) or coz they're running lean. Don't see the smoke out of the newer common rail ones coz they're tuned better. Mine also doesn't smoke anymore either (maybe coz of the dump pipe i put on the exhaust instead of the straight out pipe). Most diesels are tuned to run really lean for emissions, but retuning them can give a heap more power & often with better economy coz you don't have to gear hunt as much.
