Lot of diesel fumes with my new b3300 .Am I not running it fast enough,or is it because it's not broke in yet?

honestly can't see it only on start up


I forgot to ask, indoor startups or outdoor? Indoors, when I start mine, I make sure both garage doors and a window is open. Far more exhaust smell than my F250.

Could be the wind direction. I'd get diesel fumes in my face from my 2008 Mahindra 5525 at times when mowing into the wind. Otherwise, no smell at all.

Sometimes I get a smell of fumes from lugging the engine when I scoop a pile of dirt. Otherwise my pre tier crap engine burns clean enough that it is not a problem.

My Tier III M9540 smokes a lot on startup. But I rarely have any exhaust smell when operating it and I run low exhaust. Year ago I bought a 1984 Ford 3910 Diesel. I realize now that my Kubota burns a lot cleaner. The Ford will leave an exhaust plume trail when putting a load on it.
