Those are dem thingy's that the injector pump sends that fuel stuff into and they spit fuel into those big holes with the things that go up and down.

how about some history, actually a good read. Rudolph Diesel and Henry Ford were looking at bio-fuels as the way of the future, but were railroaded by the petroleum industry.....why is that not surprising. Kinda reminds me of the world we live in today.

Common rail anyone,

Technical, has some of that gas stuff in it, but some good things about CI-Combustion Ignited engines

Well this should get you started, at least it made my eyes hurt after all that reading.

OK guys, to go with this could the 3rd Gen'rs send me some picks of your truck blacking out the sun with smoke, maybe some tire smoke too? I know sounds strange.

Hey DD, if you have to you can always hit Youtube. If you haven't been following it, the tunable Cummins power thread has some interesting info in it.

I've already got everything setup for it, I just wanted a picture of a truck blowing smoke for my "quieter more fuel efficient" slide. I'd use a pic of my truck, but I don't have a pic of tire smoke.

Go to member photos and search the word burnout or tire smoke. You might see something that you like, I did.
