I am looking for people that have had the carbon packing issue with the cummins. I am looking to do some testing with about 10 people with some additives that we produce to help resolve this problem. thanks

Smells like a sales pitch.

What is carbon packing?

That's when carbon gets stuck above the top piston ring and eventually polishes the cylinder walls. I know ISX's have a 'carbon packing' issue, but I haven't heard of many light duty engines having this issue. Plus it's all but completely resolved with the 'reduction' of EGR.
