clog injectors with

Huh? All my injectors are all "clogged with unburned fuel"....otherwise,
she don't start in the mornin'!

What do you do, Bernie, blow air in 'em when you're shutting down?



Bernie just doesn't understand how modern Injection Pumps, with Builtin
Governers work. It is a very simple case of someone told him something,
and he repeats it every time the question comes up, wheather it is
correct or not.

If a Diesel engine is operating "At Design Temprature" it really doesn't
matter if it is loaded, unloaded, fast Rpm, slow Rpm, or whatever.

Bernie, ever wonder how all those diesel engines, at Truck Stops,
Idle all night long in cold weather, and still are able to pull BIG
Loads, the next morning, day in and day out, and still have 40K hours
between InFrame Rebuilds?
