blackstone comparison

I did a Blackstone report with the egr unhooked and one with it hooked up to see if there were any differences. Suprisingly the insoluables went from .4 to .1, and the fuel dilution went from 2 to <.5. The difference is that the oil change with the egr hooked up was in much hotter weather, with much less idling time. Think I will try with it unhooked again for next test in hot weather.

Fascinating TT, but...what's the purpose? I'm gonna guess that the "much less idle time" was the primary reason for the difference. [IMG][/IMG]

I would think that idle time would contribute to a difference.

What I was looking for was an increase in insoluables which didn't happen. Was going to re-test because of the idle times, will let you guys know.
