Parts manager @ Sterling / Mack told me they are starting to have some issues - When the computer decides it is time to burn out the particulates in muffler.It just cranks motor wide open with out warning - This should make traffic, or any work that requires a sensitive touch very interesting Also there seems to be a fire hazard when working off road as it burns extremly hot

    Welcome to the wonderful world of emmsion engines. Is it worth going through all this just to save our "enviorment". We will cut down on the emmsions but go broke doing it.
