Every one of these buses at our yard have the mystery billowing black smoke problem. The mechanics just gave up on it and let us drive them like that. It sucks because when it starts billowing black smoke it also reduces power alot and makes it hard to go up hill. But this only happens in warm weather.
@@KimIlSung84 I guess my 2012 international must have the maxxforce aswell. It works well in cold weather. On warm summer days it overheats and huffs alot of black smoke. I find that it has alot more power than the new Freightliner C2 when it's working fine though.
@@KimIlSung84it's not supposed to be billowing black smoke, that's definitely too rich of a mixture and likely something is wrong with the turbocharger system somewhere. I would take it to a mechanic to get it fixed, but I don't want to bug them with this problem yet, cause the bus was in the shop two weeks ago for the same problem and they couldn't completely fix it.
Love hearing the two way radio! That’s my favorite part on the bus
Maxxforce 7? these tend to get a lot of hate but where I am from they run good and have little to no problems

That is because it is an older bus

2012 model built 2011?
It says 2012 on registration, but I'm not sure if it was built in 2011 or not
Does it say navistar on the logo or not?
@@IceTheFanDude2379no it doesn't. Says maxxforce 7 on the side, so I know the engine at least.
Nice is that a 2012?
Yes it is.
@@SB-LifeOTR my bus used to be a 2012 max force but we got a 2019 Cummins last year
