Tacbat Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 IIRC, only the M2 and M3 still have engine smoke. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibsonm Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Ahhh that would explain that since I was using an M1A1. Thanks for the replies.Yes well these systems rely mainly on dumping Diesel onto the hot exhausts to generate the smoke.If you do that with JP-8 all you get is a flash fire which understandably the crews aren't too keen about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted February 8, 2010 Members Share Posted February 8, 2010 As far as I remember, the switch is still there in the M1 driver's compartment, but it's disconnected (as it the hose to the fuel pump). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enrage Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 As far as I remember, the switch is still there in the M1 driver's compartment, but it's disconnected (as it the hose to the fuel pump).Sometimes the switch is even broken off on the console itself, but that could just be a TRADOC thing. In a real unit, I'd want it there, since you can readjust some hoses and use it as the fuel pump if the primary fuel pump goes down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
