Well, this is my first post on this forum, hello all, by the way.
Not trying to threadjack or nuthin, but...

I also have this chuffing that you speak of. However, since my 6.9 (which I've had for about 8 months now) is the only IDI I've ever really heard or seen, I honestly didn't know they WEREN'T supposed to sound like that!
After talking to the previous 2 owners it would seem that it's been chuffing for at least 4yrs/35K. So....do I need a valve job? I should probably post a thread just about this beast and its multiple issues.
