just got back from 3000 mile trip from los angeles to south dakota. took mostly interstate 40 to south dakota then small roads on the way back. the engine did fine except for one thing black smoke out of the tail pipe on altitude above 7000 feet. i am thinking it is due to the thin air at high altitude. is this true? any ajustment i need to make? ideas?????...thankshttp://images.ih8mud.com/images/smilies/doh.gif

More altitude, less oxigen available .. less oxigen, means, much more unburned diesel due to less oxigen.

options ..

1. Turbo

2. Lees diesel
