    If it was a 389 it was probably Billy if it was a Western Star it was a Steve.

    No I mean on the dash of most Paccars there is a fuel filter gauge I thought it measured vacuum telling you when to change Your filters

    It plumbs into the fitting after the primary fuel filter that is on the frame rail.

    I don't have a vacuum gauge. This one reads pressure, and if you start to gell or filters begin to clog it will tell you.

    When a B is right they only smoke between shift changes. If they trail a little smoke the whole time they are pulling that is usually a sign of retarded timing. Though wrong nozzles and a few other things will cause it.

    What smoke it does make should be coal black not grey

    I wonder if that’s causing my high EGTs and coolant temps. I’ve replaced water pump, rad, air to air, oil cooler all with no effect and she makes 25 lbs of boost so I don’t think I have leaks
