Actually, they do... I had to look it up. Seems to be only under load,
so unless it's under a lot of load, you're ok.

If you want the last bit of power, you use excess fuel to insure that
all the oxygen in the air is utilized. Since a Diesel ingests the same
amount of air regardless of load, at a given RPM, at part power there
is excess air, and all the fuel get burned. So only trace of CO.
