Hi

Wonder if anyone knows why when a step on it to go it smokes? When I drive it really easy or get up to speed it's fine. thanks

 

that is what diesels do. i don't think you can really do much about it.

 

As you accelerate the manifold vacuum drops because the cylinder vacuum rises. As this happens more oil is sucked past the rings and the valve seals that burns and then produces smoke. This happens in all internal combustion engines but shows up more with added wear and tear.

 

diesel is an oil and that is why it smoke so much when you step on it. i know someone that runs there diesel on 50/50 of used motor and gas.

 

Not a smart thing to do!! No oil filter will trap the dirt from used Motor oil.

 

the dirt eventually settles to the bottom of the 1000 litre totes so as long as you never drain it completely the dirt will stay there.

 

A diesel has very little if any vacuum.
That is why they don't have much deceleration when you release the throttle.

 

If you say so.
I do know a guy that has a third Gen that will run quarts of his waste oil to a tank of pump fuel, but he put on a FASS system and a fuel filter setup from a big rig.
Still any knowledgeable diesel mechanic will tell you that it is not a good thing to do.

During the oil crisis in the late 1970's quite a few of the large trucking companys used the drained motor oil mixed into the fuel.
With the emission controls and rules now days I don't believe any do that any more.

 

my friend that runs 50/50 of used motor oil and gas is a diesel mechanic and he has been for over 20 year and he has not had a problem running it.
