so i'm not the only one then!!! (would you be so kind, and tell my wife that? please!!)

i think i'm gonna make that last statement into a bumper sticker!

Guy did that on the way in to school yesterday morning and a chick rear ended him because she couldn't see him... it was BAAAD, he was sitting there in the bumper to bumper and just revving the **** out of it and the black smoke was ridiculous.

That or there was something majorly wrong with that powerstroke.

theres really NO reason for street diesels to smoke.. it's power loss you can see. Look at the drag diesels. they don't smoke, one bit. If you tune them right, they won't billow out ridiculous, annoying black smoke.

When you tune your ip you get the smoke. The reason that truck doesnt smoke is it is a 6bt with a sh*t ton of nitrous. If you dont have smoke on a tuned street diesel that means you are running lean and powerstrokes are easy to melt by doing that. Black smoke is semi unburnt fuel so it is waste but its better than a wasted motor.

theres many, many more that dont smoke. and there's also many street diesels that don't smoke, either.
