The stink??

Hi guys,

I run a 50/50 mix and it runs real nice. But the stink from the exhaust is disgusting. DO you find the same thing?? is there anything I can do to overcome it??

I really want to run higher ratios, but the smell worries me. I do a lot of city driving and dont want to make anyone sick.

Any suggestions??

Keep your windows rolled up!

I'm kidding. My truck has a burnt oil smell coming from the exhaust also - and I run a 50/50 mix. That might just be a downside to running wmo. In lesser ratios, my truck did not smell except for at start up.

my dad has bad breathing issues and he cant stay in the shop after about 30seconds of my truck running. In my 2000powerstroke at about 30%oil it smoked at idle and people hated me at the bank when I was in line!

i dont think there is much you can do about the exhaust smell. i just got used to it and figure for free fuel it is worth it. i live in a generally rural area and a crew cab is to big for drive throughs so i dont worry about it to much.

I'm running 90% WMO and 10% diesel. Mine stinks pretty good also. I just mixed a new batch in a 55 gallon barrel at 5 gallons diesel, 1 gallon of naptha, and 1 quart of Power Service. It is burning pretty clean once it is warmed up. My fuel cost works out to roughly a buck a gallon.

Here in the US we just keep a Remington 870 in the gun rack in the rear window - usually people don't complain or flip you off for smoke.

True, but after running for 15 minutes it would still be hotter than the outside temp. I was just looking for an "economical" (i.e. free) heat exchanger. I really have no idea if it will make much of a difference. If it does, then I can spend some $$ and get it really hot.

Just ran mine thru the trans cooler Monday and I can say I do notice a difference. Granted it's not the hottest but it works.

If it works like it says it would be great. Fuel on startup via an element then your coolant takes over after that.

Been a stinky exhaust member for over a year now and enjoy it at every fillup.

Heck, Goldie was voted stinkiest truck at last years rally.

that looks like a slick set up looks like it could be duplicated very easily for better or worse. just need to know what kind of heating element they use and a standard temp switch.

sorry Ron must have missed your oil addiction last time
