3208NA driving tips
Kerry,
Thanks for the input. Mine is NA, so no turbo and no pyrometer. To the best of my knowledge, the propane does not significantly increase the EGT, which can be a real killer as I'm sure you know. Thanks again, Doug davidkerryedwards Doug: I suspect you don't have a pyrometer, but the EGT's are a pretty important measure in deciding how hard to push the coach. Last year, when running through the hills of WV, the crossover pipe which feeds my aftermarket turbo started to fail, resulting in lower air inputs and overfueling. I noticed a marked increase in EGT's to the point that I was becoming quite concerned. It was running about 200 degrees hotter than normal. I would be concerned that the propane injection might produce a similar result. Without piston coolers (which the turbo motor has, but the NA doesn't), this puts the pistons in danger of melting.
