Separate names with a comma.
To add to that even further, manufacturers have been lowering compression and increasing the size of EGR coolers by a lot to lower NOX levels, so...
When I talk efficiency I talk BSFC. Brake Specific Fuel Consumption. the amount of fuel in lbs or grams that it takes to make 1hp or kw for one...
Im sure VWs hybrids will most likely be diesel hybrids, which will get better fuel efficiency than a gas hybrid such as the prius, all things...
No thy were not they happened on 01-04.5 trucks. The LLY had differnt injectors and a differnt head design to get rid of the issues and it worked....
The hovered RPM is 2450 IIRC the rated PTO is like 2000. I don't remember off hnad though, that tractor is old, one of our oldest actually it's a...
I like the idea
No the engine is not air cooled it's a new common rail design. Very good motor so far. Agci was the first to put SCR on their tractors. I'm sure...
The duramax injector issues were. Only on the first generation. The DPF has nothing to do with it. The reason for the increase in displacemen is...
Ford can say what they want but until it works and gets good economy, nobodys really listening. Fords diesel reputation has been declining since 2003.

here is a great video of Cummins showing how a 2010 emissions system works [media]
Here is a video of the 2010 Cummins ISX engine running. It is fired up at 2:15. It is fairly quite as far as large diesels go. It sould also be...
very interesting. And let me first say i didnt mean to come across wrong in my other posts, i had a little bit of rage in me so I may have come...
What does this post mean? Its very unclear. I am not talking about emissions, I have not covered that yet. I was stating efficiency see two posts...
Rotella was simply an example of a good oil that people pay more money for than other oils. I DID NOT say that the Duramax was hard on oil, I...
My comment of gas engines being inefficient was a little uncalled for and requires some more explanation from my side of view. First ill state...
Mobil Delvac is great stuff, as is Rotella T. However in the Duramax case, quality of motor oil/frequency of changes has not seemed to make a...
