    That's the fuel computer telling you to take your foot out of it, for optimum fuel consumption

    Usually it's a over rev that causes that. You are using too much RPM generally when that comes on.
    D13 pulls 1000-1600 beyond that you're just beating on the motor.

    So "Floored" - isn't really floored?
    I would think it would be stressful on a drivers rt. leg to keep a half-pedal all the time? How's that work?
    Just asking; I drive a Freightliner Rollback with a 3126; a little kitty CAT as compared to this engine.
    My RPM's operating range is higher too, tops out around 2600.
    I can just keep my foot on the floor? Info?
