They shoot flame out the tailpipe, but I don't think of that as a problem...really.

I used to run a old big cam 400 cummins that shot about 6-10' of flame out the stacks after we turned the pump up 47%. she'd climb the grapevine at 55 mph+ grossing 80,000 but need to be inframed every 100,000 miles or so but she was fun to drive.

So far, I have only heard of one, and that is only that you actually have to run the truck to burn the crap out of the particulate filter. But we all know a diesel has to be run anyway.
