These smoky diesels are just worn and tired, and you cant just make it smoke with out doing potential serious damage, i would advise you to forget this idea.

You have a grudge against mother earth?

We are supposed to try to save the planet and you want to go the opposite way?

You want to collect insurance money by killing your family with pollution or sue Uncle Sam?
