Does anyone know what bad diesel can do to your truck???

 

it could clog up your fuel filter and make it run like crap, or even not run at all.

but i saw your other thread and it could also be your injection pump. Pull your codes and tell us what you got.

To pull your codes, turn your key on off on off on and watch the odometer. It will say p-pcu then give you codes (if any) then it will say p-done. Then it will say p-ecu and give you codes (again, if any) then say done. Make sure to catch both, because the 0216 lurks in the second one!

 

It can make ya blow white smoke if there's enough water in it

 

I think they call that "Steam"

 

Too true - my bad... didn't realize there was a brainiac trolling on the thread

 

Not to worry, he has a V10

 

The Dodge V-10 was my favorite engine until the common rails came out; sometimes, you just can't beat a huge gas motor!

 

Sure, unless for some reason you like getting more than 12 mpg's unloaded.....

I have no use for gas, unless they magically decide to market one with 610 ft. lbs.



Gas has it's place, not for towing anything more than a landscape size trailer though.....

 

Ya, I'm a proud V-10 owner.

 

Actually, I switched from diesel to gas because the '97 cummins couldn't tow the "landscape trailer" at interstate speeds... and at the time, 8 liters of unleaded had more muscle from idle to redline than the cummins, both HP & torque; of course, that was BEFORE I bombed the V-10
Even loaded heavy, that big beast would get 15mpg on the cross-country runs... and the way fuel prices are upside down, I'm not really saving any $$$ on the fuel bills for the service truck.

 

Meanwhile, Back at the ranch.................

Back to the topic of the thread........
