What does this mean ????
I have a 2005 supercrew with 157000 km (97555 miles) and would like to know why i have absolutely no soot on my exhaust tip ? the only upgrade i have done is a magna flow 4 inch exhaust ( turbo- back) 2 years ago and i use power service additve (mixed to the directions). I also tried different fuel (ie:esso, petro-canada). Not exact on when all this started but but noticed it last fall. Everything else seems fine with lots of power and good fuel mileage. Any thoughts would be great!!!!

+1 on what 69cj said for sure. What are your routine maintenance practices (filters, fluids, frequency, etc.)? What kind of fuel economy do you get? 4x4? Differential ratio?
Another way to do a quick check on how well everyting is running would be to pull the EGR valve and see what it looks like.
