NJ has roving teams with an Opacity meter measures how dense the smoke is.
They fined dozens of Macks with bad +/or eliminated 'puff eliminators' and you can see the difference.
Every year at renewal you have 90 days to have an emissions test and a sticker in the lower right windshield. Local cops have learned how lucrative this can be and might impound the truck...like $700.00 tow to impound and $700.00 a day 'hostage' fee...potential 4 digit fine too!

Diesel Brothers Hit With $850,000 Fine for Tampering With Truck Emissions -

In my experience (pickup trucks only) the emissions truck failures, as already stated, result from long idle hours. The EGR and DPF need consistent flow or they will get clogged and that’s where the issues start. I met a guy last week with a 16 Ram, all stock, 189k miles no issues with the engine or emissions. But he also only had 160 hours of idle.
What used to make me money was guys that idled all night, every night, then brought me their rig with 30k miles and 500+ idle hours. It was customer pay also, not warranty. Which was fun to deal with.crocky and The_Great_Corn Thank this. -
Those emissions systems don't work when truck passes 500k.(when truck starting to burn oil)
Whatever you do ,and the amount of money you spend ,it won't make your truck work.
The only solution is to delete it or throw it in junk yard.
The decision is yours.Sani101 Thanks this. -
