High Altitude and smoke
Ernie
i was camped in Flagstaff once and when I started my motor, I almost got lost in
the campground. The traffic on the street, which i entered, got their green
light , but couldn't move due to my reducing visibility to 0 feet. The smoke
cleared shortly then. Later I learned from an experienced coach operator that if
you light a fire (start a diesel) you get lots of smoke, high altitude and thin
air will cause this, so just be light on the throttle and make sure no cops are
around. Black smoke is only too much fuel and not enough air.
And the experienced coach operator might be on this web site. His name is Fox,
Coach name "the Two Foxes. "

can't breathe either?
