    Well....Now Cummins is saying it's nothing to do with the EGR System....
    The DPF is full....And the catalytic element in the DPF has to be replaced....

    Now...I don't get that at all...That DPF only has about 80K on it....We replaced the original one this past April...... They're supposed to last at least 500K miles.....:biggrin_2554:

    Good link, WCP. Sadly though, as long as the environmentalism remains a de facto fundamentalist religion, and the fervor that goes with that, those people couldn't care less about jobs. They see the human race as a blemish upon nature, and no cost is too high to eliminate the stains of humanity from nature.

    I heard Florida was hard to get out of, my dispatcher had me a load as soon as I was empty out of u.s. steel I think it was in jacksonville, or close enough to it. Was a load of slinkies though :(
