Why is it some diesels blow more black smoke than others. My buddy has a 02 7.3 powerstroke with stacks that make storm clouds when he stomps on it, i took my dads 01 7.3 farm truck out for a spin and it barely makes any smoke. That's what i like most about diesels is the sound and the smoke!

smoke is wasted fuel...

Its usually achieved from a bad tune (on electronic engines) or bad setup (on mechanical engines)

a set of large aftermarket injectors and the stock turbo is a good combination for smoke and to also literally smoke your engine!

^ agreed... i dont know why everyone is so obsessed with making smoke..

 

[CJBroesky]

Nothing wrong with smoke. It's fun driving down the road and smoking the guy out behind you!

 

[Cloverleaffarm]

the people with a 7.3 need a custom tuned chip, such as a tw, ts or a dp tuner, then they will maximize the efficiency out of their trucks

Its also increased turbo lag, decreased power, excessive EGTs (hard on the engine) and a waste of fuel/money and its starting to be outlawed. it wont be long before its against the law right across north america because everyone and their dog thinks its cool to smoke out everything in sight...

A little smoke here and there is fun and all, but alot of people get carried away with it and thats why we are starting to see guys getting tickets for it!

If the smokers piss off enough people the cops will start giving big money tickets for illegally modifying engines.
This will ruin it those of us who want the extra power but no smoke.

Smoke is one of the coolest things about diesels beside being able to tow what ever you want. But I do agree there is a time and place.

 

[cpstech05]

hopefully someone will do that to one of your family members and their compromised vision will put them in a ditch

Once in a while it's ok and fun but i would never want to do anything that seriuos to jeopardize the safety of the guy. What is it all work and no play with you guys?

 

[bhdodge]

calm down no one is trying to injure anyone its just a little harmless fun.

I just don't see what the big attraction is... if you're not concerned with performance, just put a smoke switch on the truck to fog people out

I'm not the one talking about fogging people out for no reason :confused013:
