DPF is off, power is back. That bad boy COMPLETELY clogged in under 5 hours run time without a Regen cycle - makes you wonder how much extra diesel were burning for regens to keep the emissions down. Burn more fuel to make the exhaust cleaner.... SCIENCE!

In other news, My boat has a 7.4 mercruiser (which is just a bbc 454) which has started burning a bit of oil noticeable on cold start and idles. I figure it's the valve stem seals (the boat is 25 years old and we run it like a porsche ). Anyway, not wanting to end the season early, I figured I would try some bar's oil leak stopper. And...WOW! It worked, no oil burn at all on startup or the run out, had it wide open for a bit and no problems after that either. That's the first time Ive used the stuff but I would definitely say this snake oil is worth the $5.
