What is "dpf" ?

Diesel particulate filter

Diesel particulate filter

So far, I have successfully dodged that bullet...can't afford the newer, "better" engines. At this point, I am pretty fed up with my diesels anyway.

What machine made that cloud of particulates that it was supposed to catch? Tell me more about it, 'cause that looks like something I should avoid.

You might just get a hot lunch if a squirrel wonders by steps on the wrong thing.

It's on '09 ford with a cummins in it, the dpf is designed to catch all the soot or black smoke,so when this filter becomes full the computer in the engine clears out the filter by sending a super hot flame to burn it out and when it is finished it will shoot ash out of the tail pipe so I'm told

Do you have to put diesel exhaust fluid in your truck? I heard the new dodges you do. My dodge uses diesel fuel instead of def.

Not in that particular truck but my new freightliner does use def,I think they started use def because the particulate filter us so expensive and using the def will increase the life of the dpf,I could be wrong but that is what was explained to me

 

[2treeornot2tree]

I think they started to use Def just to cost us tax payers more. I am sure it was more a political agenda then a environmental one

Today we have 3 good size firs to slam. Chipping, no bucking. Cheap Italian guy apparently, always tries to renegotiate after the job has been finished. Guys are gonna be late so I have a little time before heading out.

Was just thinking yesterday, Whatever happened to the Aerialist, or AA, or whatever he liked to be called. Doug ? I remember seeing that bizarre video of him getting carted off in the ambulance. Did he leave Arboristsite?

exit stage left- a little traveling music sammy
