In Response To: Re: 250 cummins (Vic Roy)

Vic, was having trouble with my newly rebuilt 250's smoking more than I thoughtthey should. Had the mechanic sea trial with us yesterday and do a boost test at the aftercooler. Had less than 10lbs and he said we need 28. He suggested and several guys at my marina have gutted them with no loss of power. He says tht 180-190degree coolant water is is not cooling the fuel enough to matter. Any bod agree or disagree?
