We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. One of the things you might not know about diesel engines is that based on the chemicals emitted during operation such as Carbon Monoxide (CO) ...
Diesel particulate filters allow truck diesels to meet ever-tightening emissions standards and help engine makers tune to minimize diesel exhaust fluid consumption. The DPF’s job is similar to that of ...
The diesel engine has undergone a significant evolution over the past two decades. Most of these changes were designed to reduce emissions and air pollution, but once early generation emission goals ...
I’m at the FMCSA Motor Carrier Safety Advisory Committee’s joint meeting with the Medical Review Board today — watch my Twitter feed for updates from the meeting, where committee members are slated to ...
Owners of diesel trucks are likely to seek methods of increasing performance and fuel economy and most probably may discover a bottleneck with the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). The DPF […] ...
The diesel particulate filter (DPF) has continued to improve over its 15-year existence. So have other components of aftertreatment systems (ATS) that help send cleaner exhaust through the DPF.
Most fleets would confess to using diesel fuel additives from time to time, most likely in the winter to prevent gelling. But there are fleets, lots of them it seems, that regularly treat their fuel ...
