This subject comes up every now and then, and I will tell my story of how my truck cooled down more idling than shut off, and it also comes up how many new trucks are programmed to shut off or to go to high idle to protect the motors from the harm of idling.

This morning it had not warmed up yet and as I walked back to it the white/gray smoke that is so typical of a diesel that is not yet up to temp was wafting out of the pipe and I thought how if I still had the EGR, how the motor would be sucking that stuff in and getting plugged up all over again. Out of sight, out of mind I guess.
