Welcome, start fresh and do all your fluid, filter changes (especially) filter housing, usually people miss cleaning the bottom which can collect build up.

Not into the whole "lets smoke out the whole intersection for 5min" this is going to a tow pig and plow truck. everything i do to the truck will be to help it do its job better. If i can get all the power and economy i need and have next to no smoke ill be pleased.

I hate all the dicks that smoke out people for no reason what so ever..
