Because their spray pattern isn't effective for the fuel bowl. They over-spray and wash down the cylinder walls. In other words, they aren't a very well-tuned injector for the 12v.

i think of Haze as a small amount of smoke when the engine is idling or when youre driving but not under load... just cruising

smoke is when youre in the throttle and your trucks smoking
