with diesel at nearly $4.00 a gallon why would you want to. In most states you can be cited for excessive smoke.
No. Black smoke is created when your truck is running Rich meaning that you are getting to much fuel the black smoke is just simply unburned fuel
No you do not , just loosen the lines slowly and the pressure will leak off Don't smoke are have a drop light close, cause fuel will run out, but then stop.
Smoke is just unburned fuel, too much smoke is not good for the engine. Anything that causes the engine to run rich, or have more fuel in the fuel to air ratio will make it smoke. You can either put in more fuel by using a better lift pump, or using better injectors, or you can starve the engine of air (not recommended) by unhooking the turbo or putting a paper bag over the air filter. Smoke is just wasted power, a truck that burns all this extra fuel runs much faster. Note that the fastest duramax in the world blows little to no smoke.

It just means it's a bigger fuel tank than what's standard.
You are using too much fuel, thus the black smoke .... try a short highway drive... if it doesn't clear, then its garage time to have the system reset. did you foul out the spark plugs? and how did you clean the fuel injectors? it is normal to expeirince smoke and it should clear soon. just drive for about two or three miles.
if you smoke just a little bit less than 3 puffs then you will pass but anything greater than you will fail
If the smoke is black, then it is just excess fuel that is being burnt in the exhaust. It will cause you no problems. You can remove the smoke by turning down the fuel pump, however, this will cause a loss of power.(but will not hurt the motor)
No. A smell is just a smell. It will only be in your system of you inhale the smoke or vapor or if you eat it.
the smoke comes out the rear of the car in a pipe. the smoke comes out only when the engine is on. you do not have to be moving to have smoke come out. just the fact that the engine is on creates smoke due to the byproduct of the fuel and energy.
The fuel system on a 2008 Cummins is self priming. Just turn the key on and crank.The fuel system on a 2008 Cummins is self priming. Just turn the key on and crank.
Black smoke is just unburnt fuel in a diesel if the vehicle is not modified in any way to make this happen then something is causing it to not burn it all, it will not harm it but you should figure out why its not burning all of its fuel. (most diesels will spit out a little black smoke)
