I deleted my truck because I kept having problems with my emissions and kept spending THOUSANDS of dollars repairing it. Even if i did it myself, i would still spend thousands of dollars. My truck would stay on regen mode for hours driving on the highway and I'd get average of 6 to 8 mpg. That's bullshit. I deleted it and tuned it and it woke up my truck. I get great milage, less repairs and my truck has over 600,000 miles on it. Without that delete, that truck wouldn't have seen more than 250k miles
I lost all my diesel emission deletes the same way i lost all of my firearms. " A tragic boating accident at sea in international waters." SO TRAGIC!!!
My grandfather ran water/meth going all the way back to the 70’s. He sold kits at truck stops & couldn’t move them at $75. So he bumped the price up to $700 & couldn’t make enough of them.
Thanks for the excellent podcast. I have driven a diesel since 1982 when GM was raping the public with their 5.7 liter converted gas engines. I made a few changes and made that 5.7 last 350,000 miles. I had always wanted a Dodge ram with a Cummins and finally got one. It was a 2001 long bed quad cab with a 5.9 HO and 6 speed manual. This truck got better fuel mileage than the S-10 Blazer or the Astro vans I had. We took it on vacation because it was so economical at 23.7 mpg running down the highway at 70 through the mountains in Missouri, Tennessee, Kentucky. I had gotten over 25 mpg on several tanks. That's hand calculated!!!. I expected similar results when I had to upgrade to a 2008 2500 HD with a 6.7. I wanted to do the right thing and be emissions compliant but the truck was in the shop twice a month for the first year I had it. They kept telling me they would fix it. LOL!!! My fuel economy with that truck was 25% less than the 2001 because of the emissions system. The same EPA that is truing to force impossible mileage goals for the manufacturer just killed one of the most economical vehicles on the road. I engaged a lawyer, sent all of the repair bills which were all emissions system related to Dodge explaining that due to loss of use, time off of work taking the truck back and forth to the dealer, decreased fuel economy, etc that they compensate me $15,000. They came back with an offer of $7500 if I would just go away, they didn't even contest it. The emissions system as originally designed and manufactured was defective. It would not work anywhere but in a controlled environment. You guys are correct in that they have no idea what they are enforcing, how the system works or anything else for that matter. If they would allow the manufacturers to build a system that would work in everyday use, I would go for it but they won't. They have run Volkswagen diesel cars out of the US and seem to be working on the rest of the industry. If they would work with the manufacturers to build a system that would work without huge maintenance costs and fuel economy penalties maybe people wouldn't be deleting. Their job is to find things to worry about. If they don't, they don't have jobs so they will create new issues that keep them cramming laws down our throats to keep themselves employed. They have made many of us criminals but they accept no responsibility for the problems we are having. Sorry for the long rant but I've been enjoying diesels for 40 years and now the idiots are threating to take that away along with many of our other freedoms. Thanks again for the podcast.
Now with computers, the systems can be tuned to way cleaner burning engines. I have proven this with my own personnel 08 6.4 by tuning and adding a (Modified) baffled and screened catch can. Equals fewer contaminants in the intake system, cleaner burn in the combustion chamber, and better HP. Improved MPG. Fewer emissions, and improved engine life on all internal moving parts. Less downtime.
One world order they already have it in place than been doing this slowly for years. The fake president we have was put there to make the big changes to the USA. He was a dislike guy before he was installed so it doesn't matter now voting isn't going to do shit
I had a Karen call 911 over my 6.0...it won't "roll coal" it's a grandpa truck, but another guy rolled some coal in a blue Duramax, but the cop pulled in behind me with his lights on.. I showed him my recipe that I had just bought $150 of groceries and had been in the store for an hour..I fired my truck up and floored it and it blew zero coal...the cop said, "well you changed the tune", but my truck doesn't have a tuner and he looked at my phone and I showed him I have no tune app....the Karen pulled up and said, " no that's not him, but all those disgusting trucks need pulled off the roads"...people make me sick...she was driving a brand new EQS S-Class Mercedes-Benz EV car... I found out she used to be the Mayor of my little town...the cop just rolled his eyes and walked away and left without saying a word to me..
Well there’s the problem. Why can’t we get aftermarket parts and not have to pay 19k in parts?! If the government could fix that, then more trucks would be compliant. And some people would be able to get in the business of making emissions parts. Carb is a money grab claiming to be the gatekeeper. As long as a truck passes emissions test, there should be no question how it got there. Fix that and we can fix people keeping emissions on.
I know this is an old video but, I love how this is done! And we are all breaking the law it's just not enforced is very true! There are too many laws to all be enforced and many of them are in direct conflict with each other. I have been driving a diesel for the last 30 years. The 7.3 was the first standard for light to medium trucks. I am the third owner of my current diesel a 6.4 powerstroke that was set up and runs great tuned to the same output of the newest 6.7 high output and gets better fuel economy. The ironic part is I went to the State of Georgia and bought it from a dealer because they were wholesaling because to sell it otherwise they would have to put it back fully to stock or face possible fines and jeopardize their dealership license. The fact that those that are being tasked with enforcing the laws do not know the law. Keep putting out the updates because I don't think that anyone really knows the laws that cover this subject. Because as best as I (retired LEO) understand what the actual EPA standard of the Law states is that the vehicle must pass the emissions test standard that it did at the date it was manufactured!! With or without factory equipment if it meets that standard it is in compliance with what the EPA Law states!!
To be clear, the 25 largest container ships in the world burn more diesel fuel in one year with no emissions than all of the diesel trucks in North America…and there are well over 1,000 container ships…
Great content as usual. 100% right about how the truck is used. I'm in the boat where I only use my truck occasionally and ran into the emissions issues from idling/short tripping.
Such good information. I'm the guy who drives his 97,500 dually 15 to work and 15 min home. I just like diesels. But I'm constantly stressed about getting and staying hot enough to regen. But I'm in the middle of replacing all the charge pipes. Down tube. Intake. Manifolds up tubes. So this puts me at ease a bit.
Out of all the podcast I watched this is the realest , genuine guy and speaking real day facts . The rest of the guys try too kiss the feet of epa and still give there opinions . But this guy is a deferent breed and would love too watch more of HIM !
That's why my 2000 F-250 Lariat 7.3 SD is still on the road. It's been an amazing reilable truck and motor... the only thing I've to replace was the front hubs, my bad for running Phat tires that wore out the hubs. The Water/Meth injection has peque my interest, I have added mods like HI A/C injectors, upgraded the turbo, Banks Intercooler plus the Trans Command module and running a TS power chip set on stage 4 which works for me! I talk to alot of folks about my 7.3 and tell them to let her indle 5 minutes or the piro is under 350 degrees... as a OTR driver in my past life keeping the EGR temps down will give you a Million mile motor!
No-one wants to talk about WHY the epa and other agencies came after truck owners (and shops). Hate to say it, but it's their own damn fault. The government HATES when people flaunt disregard of the laws. That is exactly what most diesel owners did. Instead of quietly tuning their trucks for better performance and better mileage and being discrete about it, they chose to include tunes for "rolling coal". They also produced and installed EGR bypass systems that were VERY obvious, some of them bright purple pipes or "block offs". Some idiots even made it a point to go to political rallys with their trucks "rolling coal". Thank you so much for drawing attention to the shops and people that simply were trying to keep their trucks on the road and running without failures due to emissions systems. As someone once said " When I see black smoke from your truck, all I see is someone that doesn't know how to tune a truck".
Someone need me to run a research on if DPF /DEF systems are actually working for their climate change. Run same trucks with and without emissions systems. See what the difference in emissions output vs mpg. Run the numbers for cost of emissions systems for each vehicle. Run the numbers for baking def, how much energy it uses. Run the numbers for manufacturing emissions systems be not having emissions systems. Run the numbers for hauling DEF fluids and manufacturing Def fluids. I bet, if you do intensive research, we’ll find the epa emissions produces more emissions than and uses more fuel than just having a basic emission system.
First time viewer and man it was great. I only run 7.3's because of all this and Its very comforting to just put diesel fuel in and go. I would not own anything newer because of it. My 96 has 365k and is still on the original injectors. It runs great. My soon to be hotshot truck is a 2002 and its built to 425 hp and runs really well. I'm breaking it in now and will be hitting the hauling road after the first of the year. Great info and great podcast. Thanks, a new subscriber.
Thanks for listening, we appreciate it! We have some 7.3 specific episodes on the channel. Let us know if you’d like a topic about them covered on an episode.
This is why California it trying to bad older vehicles from the road. Which is pointless. Their aren’t a lot of older engines left on the road to make a difference
Your truck will never run better than after you delete it. These guys are epa spokespersons. You will never make high miles or high horse power with the dpf still on your truck.
🤣🤣🤣You must have missed the part where I clearly said we were treated like criminals. I'm definitely no EPA Spokesperson. I would love nothing more than to see the entire agency completely obliterated. Until that happens, they will continue to destroy people's lives and livelihoods. I'm just here to tell our story so idiots preaching about deletes don't ruin anymore lives.
You know what sucks is when your that person trying to stay straight with the law. Then truck goes down and the dpf pump is bad. Then dealer says it may take a year to get the part. I can't go that long with out my truck. So I had to reach out to friends in the business to get me my pump. All I'm trying to say is the government wants to know why this is happening now and that's why. You can't get parts.
I enjoyed the video I have a 2006 GMC Sierra 2500 HD 6.6 Duramax engine has 365.000km its stock runs like a clock don't have any tunes on it don't intend to delete anything. I am removing and cleaning the EGR system on it only.
Problem is we are all law abiding and striving to obey laws, and continually have to keep up with new laws. The non law abiding don’t obey laws so legislators leave them alone, knowing they will not obey. It’s about control and power.
You aint lying my friend. every law is about power over us. Its never about safety or even the "Children" the govt will mow your kids down in school faster than you can blink an eye to get you inline.
My duramax is SAFE ....2002 zero emissions devices from Factory 4we one owner . It's for sale . Thanks to this channel for the added value. Price is going up....
Returning the vehivle to stock. Is not running with a failed government emmisions project. But rather a clean burning properly tuned well maintaned engine. That has higher mpg. more hp. And longer lasting less maintanence vehicles.
Have you looked behind your EGR and seen how plugged with soot and goo your intake is? Have you been behind and followed, have you been stuck in trafic when one of these 08 to 2010 veh while it is in regen? Try it on a hot day. And as the owner or driver in this situation your life could be threatened. Have your oil tested at your 5000 + recommended service. And you have 2 + quarts extra in your crankcase and that turns out to be fuel that has by passed your rings during regen that is just destroying to life of your engine. PS since I put a large volume 4" catchcan with 1" ports and a baffle plate on my blowby for my 08 6.4 Powerstroke my cold start has improved greatly and the amount of black smoke on lift off in stop and go traffic has greatly improved no black smoke on a normal lift off with a meadum load.👍👍
My work Peterbilt has been in & out of the shop for Regen/def problems, 6 months and around $17k, it’s finally fixed… for now. This is a propane delivery truck in the northeast.
I now own a 2017 Ford 6.7 f250, the biggest mistake I ever made because of the fuel mileage, 12 Mpg towing a light trailer, maybe 15 Mpg on the highway without, and constantly worrying about a $10,000 breakdown .During my pick up truck owning/driving career I sold my 1997 F250 with a 7.3 ( bought it new and meticulously maintained it) It only had 74,000 miles on it when I sold it in 2006. Dam thing used to get 24-26 miles to the gallon- didn't matter if I drove it in the city or on the highway. I couldn't even smell burning diesel coming out of the exhaust, never black exhaust and when cold a little light grey exhaust, and unbelievably the engine oil stayed very clean looking between oil changes. Only problem that I ever had was the oil pan leaked (a lot) and was told by numerous mechanics that the engine had to be pulled or that the cab had to be lifted to reseal the pan at a cost of over $2,500.00 at the time, which was one of the reasons that I sold it. I have since found out that there is an outfit somewhere in Mass. that you can buy a two piece oil pan for less than $500.00 dollars. I'm seriously considering selling it, I had plans to pull a small 5th wheel toy hauler when my wife retires in two years so that we can travel the country together but I'm afraid that something catastrophic is going to happen to it before that time comes. Anyhow- just venting...
Ive got 343,000 on a 2018 eco diesel, runs like a champ, but spends most of the time on the highway and I drive it like I stole it. Im onto a 2023 eco diesel with 93,000 in 14 months, no issues.
I use Lucas Diesel Deep Clean. Gotta have it. I was in the oilfield for many years using a truck that had the DEF system on it. In those vocational environments (idle time, PTO time, wait, etc) with cold weather especially - you gotta use it. Otherwise you'll plug up the SCR fast. Downtime is unacceptable in work environments and it'll break your business. I put 400,000 hard miles on the truck in 6 years and had ZERO emissions issues. It was a Freightliner 122SD with a Detroit 600HP diesel and 18 speed transmission with 46K rears. You MUST use LDDC to keep the filters clean. PLUS - do regular forced regens. Especially if you drive just local distances. Otherwise the shops will get you with high $$$$$ repairs.
EGR was designed to kill engines. Whats the point in having an air filter if running EGR? No point.... EGR directs abrasive carbon soot straight back into intake is the worst idea for the life of an engine. If they want sustainability removing the EGR is the best thing for deisel. As quadruples the life of the engine. DPF is ok if running the correct oil and running the truck long distances. Fuel economy is much better with out it. Less diesel burnt to do the job = less emmisions.
@@hahaadventures4838 yes that would definitely reduce the carbon/soot being fed back into engine, but still nowhere near as good as filtered clean cold air from the intercooler.
I was a deisel mechanic and I currently drive semi and fly planes in Alaska and I'll tell you that emission device don't do well and have no life in cold weather period our semi trucks are failing left and right and need to be regen all the time
0:46 Answer to first Question: You can use a decarboniser additive with each refuel. The product I used has independent scientific reports AND was tested by a NATA certified testing specialist which is part of the Brisbane city council. The test compared a new Isuzu diesel ute first without any additives, then with CEM (Australian based Cost Effective Maintenance…mining companies are saving big bucks as Cat Dozers last much longer than recommended with less wear than the non additive engines.). Anyway, I’m only going to mention the decarboniser increases the cetane rating a little and because of the slightly better combustion not only reduces the number of particulates, but the size of the soot. This obviously means reduced regenerations saving money here. As well, when doing a regen, the DPF burns hotter and this reduces regen time. I’ve used their products for about 15 years. As I buy in bulk it actually pays for itself in slightly increased fuel consumption. The other benefit is cleaner engine internals and injector spray pattern is maintained as designed. One mind blowing fact I know is that the oil additive AW10 allows the engine oil soot loading to double (and still keep the oil within specs), now I’m not saying to extend your servicing intervals…I would never do that, in fact I like to cut them short. Every 50,000 klms I do a “double flush” using the flush concentrate and use cheap oil, just drive about 15 klms, then dump the oil to put the good stuff in, of course with AW10. 2% per volume is all u need. They have a cheap book which has many customer successes (including a large mining company I was telling u about). I get nothing out of telling you about this…I’m just a diesel lover, from small vehicles to 4x4 to V8 twin turbo Audi Q7 I owned years ago…Damm that was a fast SUV (was tuned, small exhaust mods). Currently I own a heavily modified LandCruiser Prado 2007 (240kW, 560 Nm at the wheels). Thinking about an older US truck pre DPF and mechanical fuel injection…any suggestions? FYI, typically DPFs should be removed and specially cleaned every 150,000 klms and in Australia the best in the business charge. $600 AUD. Thing is, by using the decarboniser you will extend this very much longer. Not sure what u guys have in the US, but just make sure it’s laboratory and field tested with quality company reports.
Maybe that is why my 2 6 Leakers run so good. 2004 F550 with 210K on the clock and a 2006 F250 230K on the clock and I beat them like a red headed step child EVERYWHERE I go.
The EGR is nothing but a exshaust leak into the intake. Its understandable the need to remove it. I personally never liked the delete option, I prefer just to turn it off by one way or another. The EGR is easy, simply unplug it. Yes a code is sent and the light comes on, but that does not bother me. I can easily put up with the light vs my intake clogging up with the black gombo.
I just love the facts are there that this was not the way to go and that it's killing more to have it. To be smart about it and just figure a way to not crop dust everything with smoking everything out and get rid of what's destroying more to have
Run an ezlynk. Keep stock exhaust so you can put it back on if need be. Leave egr on and just have it turned off. Stop putting huge tips on exhaust to keep attention off. Just run dpf delete pipes and stock tailpipe. Have fun on empty back roads. Keep it nice and easy in town.
Has there been an episode with actual legal folks (more than one at a time per episode) in which a discussion about legitimate legal approaches to taking back our liberties and stopping illegal government overreach?
@@brianbusch2840 That’s not our goal at all. For years, much of this was going on but it never got attention in media. Our intent with these episodes is to show the general public exactly what’s happening around the country. Supporting what’s going on vs bringing it to people’s attention are two different things. And we will continue to offer our platform to guests who want to share what’s actually happening.
@@TheDieselPodcast it’s one thing to bring the information to viewer’s attention but the discussions always seem to be about bending over for the epa and complying rather than focusing on the criminality of the epa and overreach even the courts recognize is occurring. It’s time we all start to stand up and it may cost some of us our lives. We are losing freedom by the day and your discussions on this podcast only give credence to the epa. Cops harassing a girl driving her dad’s truck.. that is nothing short of criminal. EPA is dangerous and will murder you if you don’t comply. Wake up people, this is by design and you are all being exterminated through a number of strategic internal attacks. EPA, IRS, FBI, donkeys, elephants, Highway Patrol (Nazi SS), thin blue line gang… all criminals. The US Government Corporation owns you legally through your birth certificate and SSN. Wake up folks CBDC will control every aspect of your life and you will be penalized via carbon credits if you own a Diesel truck. It’s better to fight/die for freedom than to live in tyranny.
My 1999 7.3 is safe. I am very interested to see the emissions from a 7.3 with speed of air pistons. If they do half what they say they will do, DPF could be a thing of the past. If I live long enough, I am going to rebuild my 7.3 with them and just keep driving it. Even if I spent $30,000 on a rebuild, I am still better off.
I have been running water meth injection for 20 years on several different vehicles, 1 diesel and the rest high hp turbo gas engines, I love snow performance, auqaumist and aem systems, every engine I tear down has 0 carbon build up on the valve train and pistons.
I sold a 2016 f350 dually with the 6.7 simply because of the emissions. It was a great truck and very powerful. I had it deleted, from the def to the oil cooler it was deleted. I got a ticket for not having a dpf filter and looked into putting it back to stock and it was just too expensive. I sold the truck to a logger and bought a gas burner. I can still pull my tractor and equipment I just get started a little slower.
Any bypass filter kit will help. I have a FS2500 on my 2000 F250 Super Duty with 7.3 powerstroke. I personally think bypass filters should come stock on all diesel and gasoline vehicles that have egr.
The problem now is that it is getting harder to get DPF’s for trucks. Guys were forced to delete em cuz there’s no DEF & no parts available!!! If you want to eat dinner & have diesel at the pump for your truck the EPA better reconsider cuz there’s a ton of deleted trucks on the road rn that are working hard hauling food to the stores that are not going to be able to do so now with this.
I have a 8 year old Ram 2500 fully stock haven't had any issues with any of the emissions only has 43k on it. Drive it around here and there mostly not towing anything.
My worry is that pre emissions diesel will have to become emission compliant or has to be unregistered because they are no longer exempt from emissions. I grew up around diesels and always had a passion for them. I like the newer diesels because they have a lot of nice features but have failing emissions equipment or are 50,000+ dollars even when it’s a 10+ year old truck. So with emissions on newer diesels makes the pre emissions one go way up in value and harder to buy. I’ve been wanting to buy a obs 7.3 powerstroke or a 2nd Gen 12v or 24v that’s not rusted out and lower mileage. But even the rusted out high mileage are selling for like 15,000+ and I remember when clean low mileage ones a few years ago you could buy under 10,000 now they sell for 20,000+. You know I haul hay and haul cattle feed and tow quite often in a very hilly environment and I’m 18 fresh out of school and I could use even a older diesel. These hills are killing my 03 5.3 Silverado. It will do the work but I’m getting 4-7 mpg because of the hills. But can’t find a decent older diesel truck that isn’t high mileage or rusted out without being a ridiculous price. Like I said even the rusted out high mileage ones that have been ran hard are still selling for 15k + and the ones that are selling for like 5-10k are really high mileage rusted out with a lot of problems that would cost more to fix then what the truck is worth.
your best bet, buy a pre 06 truck, it will be high mileage but find one who has papers proving the work done. Your best bet will be to plan to rebuild it, make it new. I dont see how they could force vehicles that never had parts designed for the vehicle magically appear. Higher mileage means less $, means more $ for upgrades.
@@yourfavoritelawnguy2722 yeah but the thing is I’m talking about 94-04 trucks I see high mileage rusted out for more than 13k within 100 miles range of me
@@yourfavoritelawnguy2722 for a decent truck with a little bit of rust and less than 250k miles they are selling for almost 20k and under 200k they sell for 25k if not more
I love to hear this kind of stuff. It's very educating. But i'd also like to educate the world on how important it is to speak freely. Just like it always comes down to this. When you ask government questions and they don't have answers. There is a very, very big problem and we turn our backs to it. Because we are tough and we wanna just go about our way. Let's not give government anymore. Power, they don't need it. We don't need government. Support more of your auditors. We will make this place what we always wish. It would be if you think without government. It will be complete Chaos That is so not true, and you have been conditioned to believe it will be. When you see different pay attention to the things in the world. When there's no police around. 4 miles in miles.
Does he like Banks air intakes? Just wanted to also tell you my 4 year old is repeating your opening line about what is going on diesel nation. He listens to your channel with me when we are in the car. 😊
I know all the heavy equipment we use that has all this government emissions stuff on it. Have been in and out of the shop non stop with problems. Been a big nightmare. Diesel motor runs so much better without all that BS on it.
DPFs don’t get plugged if you use the truck, not use it like a Prius ,like a truck,work it get it hot, I don’t know why people like to buy one ton diesel trucks and drive them around like they are a car. Let them cold idle too long etc… 99 percent of the DPF issues are driver induced.
100% truth. Look at the 6.4 power stroke. Ones with the most miles without issues are the ones that were worked properly. Seen several with 300-400k miles on the original engine especially f350’s and f450’s. Working them makes are difference for sure.
It depends on how you work them. I have a couple trucks that come in to our dealership from a construction company that clog dpfs past the point of self regen because they idle on site and/or pull large equipment around the site and they have an average mph of 27 mph and don’t have enough long drive time to self regen as they should
@@fredcalder2869 idle and and low speed are killers. The key is let them regen like they’re supposed to instead of shutting them off. I run a service truck and if the truck hasn’t regen’d like I think it should then I’ll plug into it and force a regen to keep it clean but that’s honestly what I specialize in on class 8 trucks. 95% of my service calls are on after treatment systems and majority of the time I’ll find where the drivers don’t let the truck regen properly and/or hit the inhibit switch to stop it because they say it’s “annoying” to listen to it regen🤷🏻♂️.. I’ll gladly take their money because of their stupidity.
So they put those systems on to reduce emissions but you have to drive the truck hard (increase emissions) to get it hot enough to make it reliable. Make it make sense please.
I completely get where he is coming from dealing with someone that is supposed to know the law and enforce it but can’t give a simple answer or correctly identify a part and understand what that part does, I am a trucker and deal with DOT and it’s exactly the same
What this guy is saying might be true for the work truck but for those of us with commuter diesels like my 2018 GMC terrain with the 1.6L LH7 diesel, it's not the DPF that's the problem that thing stays clean as a whistle, it's the intake manifold that looks like clogged arteries and it's spitting black abrasive diesel snot straight onto my intake valves! I have a good catch can and it's still out of control. Somebody please tell me because I honestly don't know the answer, why do we NOT take the EGR AFTER the DPF so we're not picking up all that soot?? My only guess is that after the DPF there may not be enough pressure to overcome the boost pressure in the manifold. But something needs to be done. This is what's killing engines. P.S. I'm on the highway for an hour each way at 70 MPH plus.
So,answer me this….I am a mechanic from back in the seventies,when diesel engines lasted decades….Before this emission scam….Now all I see are cracked heads and failed ECM controls at low mileages….Yeah,the increased heat burns hydrocarbons,but destroys pistons and especially heads….Emissions DO NOTHING to benefit the engine….Nada….Nothing
Hey diesel podcast do a podcast on Pittsburgh power max mileage catalyst. I’ve got people telling me after adding this stuff to “every” tank of fuel they are rarely having regens anymore. Interested to hear more “good” fact/opinions on this product as WE need GOOD solutions right now!
All these big diesel manufactures should have stood together and told the government to screw off and not went to any of this def bs If they had all said this we wouldn’t have it now. Power in numbers people
If the government wants these expensive parts to stay on the vehicles, then there should be a way to be able to afford the cost of effective maintenance. Paying $19,000 , I could buy another used vehicle for that…
At some point soon, the interpretation and enforcement of this law needs a full review. There should be some exceptions for personal and older vehicles plus this seems focused on the diesel side transportation.
Look up "right to travel". These people don't seem to want to touch it because they would rather beat their heads against the wall trying to figure out how to comply and still get what they want when the answers are already here.
I thought the emission from diesel was actually cleaner than from a regular engine? If you tried to commit suicide by running a diesel inside a garage that you would not die as the fumes contain less co2 and CO than a gasoline engine.
Northern idaho..sounds like kellogg.. couerdelane ...Kootenai County area .. I eft home at 16 and went to work underground there ...1980.. . Many miles ago...
You got the dealership to put it back on after they sold it to you deleted? Is that what you are saying? If so how? I understand they aren’t supposed to be selling them “deleted” but what leverage did you have they had to put it back on free???
