I find it strange, though, that a computer-controlled injection system could be duming in fuel that cannot be burned. The whole idea of electronically controlled injection is to meter in precisely the necessary amount and no more. Or less.

I agree, Gary. Were it not for what it says in the manual, I'd do the same as you. I also find it odd that my engine is governed at 1800 RPM, where most other diesels I know of go up to 2100-2400, but the CAT manual agrees that some versions of the C-13 have that limitation.

Oh well -- I'll continue to go by the manual, but I can't help but wonder if that was a carry-over in the manual from years back when they didn't have computer control. I'll probably never know.
