Default Engine question

Yes another question from a first time diesel owner... Her it is I have a stock 2005 2500 only thing I have done is a straight pipe... I think my truck is missing and was wondering if this can happen on a diesel and if so what would cause it? What can happen if it is missing? Any info and feed back would be great thanks in advance Billy....

Your engine miss may be just dirty injectors. Dump a little stanadyne or power service in yur tank and go hotrod that thing up a hill a few times get them cylinder temps up high enough to burn the carbon off the tips of the injectors.

Billy. . .right as I finnished the IM with ya and went out walking I remember about what Jake said and running it hard up a few hills to get the drive pressure and temps in the cylinders up. . .if you have any carbon buildup on the injectors(common) this will knock it off.
