[@sweatlodgegarage8195]

as good as it looks on paper, it doesn't matter what you do to control the emissions produced by the motor, those filters still choke up the engine and will never allow it to run at its best especially with a turbo equipped motor, i've seen many turbos fail on diesels simply because the filters and converters choke them out tremendously

[@VapidSlug]

As far as I understand, the EGR as what really contributes to that through depositing so much gunk into the oil. The engine can handle dirty oil for quite some time but turbos are far more sensitive to that.

I did the deletes on my diesel pickup, and I went from getting 13 mpg to 22mpg. Getting better fuel economy = less pollution. The EPA crap is a contradiction. Burning more fuel to go the same amount of distance is not better for the environment nor for my pocket book.

I literally emailed Banks Power Corporate with a, "If I have to be EPA compliant, how do I correct the EGR, DPF, and SCR problems with aftermarket solutions?" They got back to me by suggesting their tuning module, pedal controller, intake, and exhaust.... So the boastful "EPA Compliant" company doesn't have a solution for any of these systems.

The EPA and the Federal Government KNEW long before these regulations came into effect the damage EGR and DEF would do to diesel engines. Yet they passed them anyway. This was Clinton Era EPA that came up with the regulations. This is why CAT no longer makes on road use diesel engines. CAT, Cummins, and Detroit Diesel testified before Congress on the damage these new EPA regs were going to do to engines and the negative impact on the trucking industry. No one cared. My last truck, a 09 Western Star, had probably the BEST emissions setup. NO EGR. It had a 60 Series Detroit with a Re-Gen system. The exhaust system had a DPF, and the entire exhaust system had fuel lines and spark plugs at intervals along it. There were sensors for soot every so far. If ANY sensor showed soot, from that sensor back got fuel shot to it and ignited by the spark plug. NEVER in 450,000 miles I drove that truck did I have ANY soot issues or problems. The engine was California Certified Clean Diesel.

[@littlemisssunshine2931]

That sounds like a much better system @mean45acp, why don't they make all cars and trucks with that system? I.e. what's the downside for them? (Apart from us not having to have them serviced as regularly, replace them as often or buy fuel as frequently, obviously!).

Its actually from the clean air and water act of 1972, put into place by President Nixon as he was trying to out do a rival politician to garner public support. At the time, the environment was a large political platform. Nixon also created the EPA, but soon found it to be a hindrance to him and tried to cut its funding and render it useless, however he had allowed safeguards to be put into place to prevent that from happening, as an environmental legislative entrepreneur wrote the bill, and not Nixon's staff (because they were to lazy to write the bill themselves). Nixon, trying to show off actually made the bill more strict than the "Environmentalists" did, to try and outdo Senator Edward Muskie, who at the time, was considered the largest supporter of environmental policy; and was polling better than Nixon. So it wasn't to please those "environment wankers", it was shady politicians trying to garner public support for re-election. As the majority of the United States was suffocating from unregulated surfer dioxide and nitrous oxide emissions from manufacturers who were over polluting and causing major health issues in large cities in the late 60's and early 70. So really if you think about it the bill came into effect because of those conservative industrial greedy wankers. You should also look up the "Tragedy of the commons", might learn something. Education is something people on KZbin should invest in!

[@PrestonGladd]

Oh and you can also blame those "Canadian wankers", as they put tremendous pressure on the U.S. to tighten regulations on pollutants (in the early 1980's, I believe it was 1983 when they increased the legislation on the clean air and water act (amending it)) because the air pollutants were all going north and causing large amounts of acid rain, which was impacting soil pH levels and starting to have large degradation on forest growth, and as a domino effect was impacting the animal and other plant ecology.

almost started wheat field on fire cause DPF was so hot. Deleted EGR DPF. Oil at change was noticeably cleaner and got a 15 % increase in fuel economy.

[@vincenthvasta4108]

The dpf collects soot and ash. The truck series today has been creating over heat which then cracks the egr cooler that sends coolant to the dpf and burns. Your def fluid is injected into the scr. You have an injector for the def and dpf for fuel. We do oil sampling to check our oil from being contaminated. Nox sensors you have 1 on the intake and the 2nd one on the exit. The def fluid is injected in front of the scr. Depending on the truck i have seen Macks heat at the dpf around 1200 degrees. There is also a SCR crystalline regen that creates a heat range near 1600 degrees. Every def tank i have seen has a tank heater. This is a heater that uses engine coolant to heat the tank. If you want to keep your truck running take it to an Aftertreatment specialist. The aftertreatment uses a differential pressure sensor this is located on or near the dpf it has 2 hoses that recieves pressure from both sides of dpf. The computer uses this sensor to activate the regen when the numbers climb. When you have your laptop on your truck you can see the soot levels and ash.

So let me get this straight..... Adding an EGR gives you less emissions, but worse fuel mileage and more wear on your engine. Adding a DPF gives you less emissions, but worse fuel mileage and more wear on your engine. Adding a SCR and DEF tank will give you less emissions but potentially worse reliability. So is all this emissions out of the tailpipe being reduced worth it if you may have to rebuild an engine in 400,000 miles? Is that really more green vs. a truck pre-egr that can easily get 1-1.5 million miles before a rebuild?

One thing very few people understand is that a DPF regeneration burns accumulated soot but does nothing then to pass the ash thst is still trapped in the DPF. By design, a DPF must be dropped periodically to have the accumulated ash blown out. The irony, at least in HD where my experience derives, is that I have never seen a DPF reach a blowout service interval. The engine either fouled the DPF via doser, injector, turbo, EGR cooler, etc failure, or commercial companies have learned to proactively blow their DPFs as part of a regular maintenance procedure.

[@nielsoegema]

Best solution: bring your diesel to a tuner and let them remove the EGR from the software. Then the dpf wont have to run and your gas mileage goes up. In Holland the yearly MOT doesnt check the software en the NOx stays within the limits because the MOT limits on used cars is lower then the limits on newly developed cars. You could even try and remove your dpf but that could be noticed by the MOT

Sorry but you're wrong. The DPF will still catch soot, it's how the engine works. I had my EGR disabled and yes the DPF would no longer regen but the Differential pressure sensor through a code because the DPF was getting clogged. Just do it the right way and remove everything and have it all disabled via software.

[@johnmazza9432]

@@1tokeover Is it still possible to do a delete since the EPA is more strictly enforcing their draconian rules ?

[@bobamericana3099]

the egr delete kits works wonders, also..using tap water instead of def fluid works too...in commercial trucks-it is all about operating costs and def/egr expenses do indeed factor in

[@Omegadoomship]

Simplicity in engine designs is key for a good reliable engine. As soon as they bolt on all of this useless emissions crap on it, that once reliable, dependable diesel engine becomes an endless money pit. That goes for both gas and Diesel engines. The solution: delete it as soon as you buy it.

[@haydenwyllie4456]

Fpt are using doc and scr. Only dpf on engines 100hp or less. These are increasing the operating costs but being someone who use to end up in hospital a couple of times a year with respitorery issues I'm pleased that these are in use and deleting them should be illegal

[@shanevonharten3100]

They are all ways of decreasing enjine efficiency, so you use more fuel to be "cleaner"

[@MyWatchIsEnded]

The conspiracy theory about that exact topic is that oil companies are lobbying the government for exactly that reason. They ask the government to increase restrictions on emissions to make vehicles consume more fuel for 'clean' air.

[@marcusbarnes5929]

@@MyWatchIsEnded it's not a conspiracy when it's clearly the case. An inefficient engine that has to burn more fuel to do the same job means more immissions. Having a free flowing intake/ exhaust with an accurate tune will save fuel and gain power. Less need to accelerate harder to do the same job.

[@MyWatchIsEnded]

@@marcusbarnes5929 agreed plus their definition of "efficient" is severely lacking. They cry out how semi trucks are "inefficient and polluting" and yet they never account for the fact that semi trucks are doing necessary 'work' and that they're making 4-10mpg from 34,000lbs to 80,000+ which is by definition efficient since they are making acceptable fuel numbers for a lot of work produced. Is it efficient for a car carrying one person 300 miles and burning 24 gallons or is it efficient that an 80,000lb semi is carrying 45,000lbs of cargo/goods and only burning 50 gallons in 300 miles?

[@Surfingaliens65]

Best way to describe this innovation. Short of breath and constipated. Every time the engine warning light stays on essentially means the exhaust system needs deep cleaning. So sad.

Right now Cummins has a recall on the SCR. Trucks with the ISX 15 between 2010-15.

[@vladimirproksch2894]

A very informative video. With the EGR reducing the Nx by cooling the exhaust gas which is in opposition to the DPF which needs heat to remove the soot, the whole system is a mess. The result might be a cleaner tailpipe emission but an engine block chocked up with abrasive carbon and unburned fuel sounds like a recipe for expensive repairs. It is a pity as diesels have great torque and good fuel economy. Unfortunately I do a lot of short stop start driving so it looks like I am out???

[@InsaneDieselUSA]

Good luck.

[@VARITHMS]

One thing is never discussed is how much goes into: Making all these extra parts; mining of metals. Cost and environmental impact of the transportation of new, and replacement part where sold originally and later when they break. Impact of engines that prematurely fail. Power of processing, transport and storage of DEF in bulk or jugs. It goes on and on. The only thing after my turbo is some pipe and a muffler.

[@OverlandTT]

Trade off from soot to the DPF then produces nano particles which pass through lung lining to the blood stream! Great stuff!

[@justicegoble3463]

This has been super informative, thank you for putting this together! Some clarifying questions: So with deleting, can I deleted everything but the DEF/SCR and then run it while still achieving mileage and power/efficiency gains, without causing backpressure back into the engine? or does the SCR still cause some backpressure?

[@electric7487]

Based on this video and the comments here, I would keep SCR but without a doubt delete EGR and DPF.

just delete the thing. keep the shell of the DPF and keep the stock system kicking around for when you sell it or is checked for emissions shit the shell will make it look stock and passable

You state that the bypass filter is effective down to 1 micron. What level of efficiency? 10%? 20%? 50%? The 2 oil analysis photos that you presented show lower particulate count with the oil that was run through the filter. What particulate materials were captured within the filter? Boron? Zinc? Phosphorous? Aluminum? Iron? Calcium?

Wesley Richardson Regular car gas stations, that also carry diesel will not have a def pump, but almost every big truck stop in the country has a def pump next to a diesel pump. Major corporate truck stops like Pilot, Flying J, Petro, TA, Love's are guaranteed to have it at every fuel isle.
