silly smoke question
 

ok my 02oll some black smoke while driving if i put my foot in it but in park if i rev it up it does not smoke? how do these guys make all that black smoke? I know a "smoke tune" by a tuner helps but what am i missing?

the plastic bag in the air filter....:tu:

You aren't missing anything. Your truck is fueling properly if it isn't smoking. There is nothing wrong with not wasting fuel... :c:

Because there is no load on the engine or turbo. Black smoke is not a cool thing, enjoy the power not the smoke. :c:

I second this notion :jump:

If you want to be a jackass and smoke, their not in park. Theyre in drive with their foot on the throttle and the brake.

Good way to increase EGT's and heat up your trans....:td: If ya wanna smoke someone out, nail it for a second or two (while youre rolling). You'll get a nice black puff of soot. Hell, I do it to tailgaters.:c:

the reason why you see all that smoke on drag or sled pullers is huge aftermaket injectors very expensive and dont put the bag over the air intake its a dumb idea. people mistake smoke for power . mine does it sometimes but it gets old quick and it just kills your mpg.

by the way welcome to diesel bombers:c:

Yea some smoke means power a black cloud of it means a waste of fuel... I missed that hes a new guy but anyhow yes Welcome to diesel bombers... My friends 99 7.3L smoke pretty good on take off with a edge juice with attitude, but if you are excessive on the smoke you can lead to dirty injectors.
