    Default You are welcome

    Jon,

    You are welcome. I finally got to contribute something to the technical knowledge of the group. I did not do it alone, I did have help from others. It was a long trip home but we made it and learned something in the process - now if I could just remember where I put those slippers!

    Greg,

    There was no change in the differential pyro readings after the Service Tehcnician polished the exhaust pipe. I did notice something strange to me. That was he smacked the clamps serveal times in several different places. After a couple smacks he retightened the clamps. There were about three rounds of pipe banging then clamp tightening.

    Uh, this was the wizard that thought your problem was related to the turbo?

    My guess is he is not the example to follow.

    Black smoke equals turbo, also detected by sooting around the exhaust.

    Clean exhaust equals fuel starvation, also proven by no visible sooting around exhaust and irregular performance (jerking in drivetrain).
