Soot = black.
Cummins 430hp? What year is the boat? Is it electronically controlled or does it have a mechanical fuel injection? Probably an over fueled situation. |

I've heard the C series Cummins do smoke. If they are warmed up, running at the right temp and speed/load and still smoke, not sure what you can do about it. |

Yeah, black smoke. Engine is propped and running right. It is an inherent problem in the C Series. Wondering if there are any solutions.
I was made aware of a product called FuelSep by the same company that makes AirSep. Anyone have any experience with this product? |
