    Of course it’s possible. Make sure you have it set to recirculate.

    Also if you've got a weed burner where do you think those fumes are gonna go? Straight up to the cab.

    Yes. Check the flex pipe coming off the turbo to the dpf. They burn up in short time and can pump smoke and fumes into the cab.

    I do, doesn't seem to help though. When I clean the truck (inside) I don't find soot and that is what the mechanic is using for proof. I think that is BS as well. At the over 1000 degrees I have been told them def burns at, Any soot would be microparticles and not big enough to find on your cleaning rag. But my nose knows.

    Girlfriend made loaded baked potato soup. I guess I’ll keep her a little while longer.

    If u have a cummins. Coming off the turbo there is piece of flex pipe nearest to the frame that is notorious for getting clogged with soot. I noticed some smoke getting into my cab during regens and it ended up being that piece all burnt up. Smoke coming out of it and coming thru the vents when at a stoplight or not moving. Also just make sure to check exhaust clamps... I think there will always be that "regen smell" but you really shouldnt smell it in the cab. The flex pipe looks like this. Clamp on top and clamp on bottom. If you see black soot on it , it needs replaced.
