Re: Pain At The Pump: Government Gas Secrets
There are lots of changes in the works as the diesel engine companies work
through their emissions credits for 05 and 06.
07 engines from all heavy engine manufacturers will be running much hotter
and will have much more extensive particulate filters.
However, its still up to the end user (ie the Transit authorities) to make
sure their vehicles are maintained properly.... and lots of our california
customers have gone to CNG (compressed Natural gas) engines, which have 0
emissions.
