| Hey there everyone ...I just went and rescued a driver this morning from her bus . We have been having surging problems . I changed the filters and it run good a couple days . This morning she said it was surging and when it surged black smoke would come out of exhaust . This is a 2001 International with a DT 466 E engine and 643 auto .Also noticed blow by when idling ? Please help !!!!!!!!! |

Some blow by is normal. Check with manometer and proper restriction.
Any DTCs (Diagnostic Trouble Codes)?... Boost Pressure? Fuel Quality? Fuel Pressure? Any air intake restrictions? Air filter? Any other low power complaints.

| First guess would be a cam sensor... get codes and post them. |

Have you checked the fuel ball? We had numerous issues with these.
Located above the pre-filter screen! |

The codes will not clear themselves, so unless you do it yourself, they will always be there (as with most vehicles, cars, trucks, etc).
Codes will go from Active to Passive on their own when the fault(s) no longer exist, but again they will never "clear" by themselves. |
If you want customer service, you NEED an International! |

| So to clear the codes I either need a laptop or a pro-link ? Maybe not even worry about them ??? |

| Push the button HOLD it in, Turn key to on (dont start it), Push the throttle pedal 3 times, Let go of button, Turn key off. Then recheck, should have 111 come up. |
