I've been a diesel mechanic for 30++++years. And i work for a school bus company at present time and these emissions on the new diesels are my nightmare!

Why should an engineer have to come up with a solution? The entire concept of diesel exhaust emission controls was created and is pushed by the Chinese Communist party through means of propaganda, And it is an act of war with specific and malicious intent to destroy the economy of the United States. This is specifically how the Chinese Communist party is controlling our are entire transportation infrastructure, And they are using this as a plan to cripple nations. The Chinese Communist party controls 95 % of the supply supply of diesel exhaust fluid. The Chinese Communist party can Embargo a country, And prevent it from imports of the DEF, This act will stop most of the logistics and will stop agricultural production, Thus resulting in Civil War and starvation of a nation. Then of course the Chinese Communist party can then come in and take more control of the country.

I did mine after struggling the five years while on warranty. No problems since, sounds awesome and works, starts no problem

Lots to learn in this. But, there are some misconceptions. I owned a 2012 Ford 6.7 that I drove stock until 38,000 miles. Then deleted. I also own a stock 2018 Ford 6.7. 1.) The reduction in fuel mileage during regeneration occurs infrequently. On my 6.7 Ford it's roughly every 500-600 miles. It regenerates for 12-24 miles depending on driving conditions. Otherwise, the engine is not using extra fuel to regenerate. 2.) I deleted a power stroke and put over 60,000 miles on it. I track every fill up with miles driven and fuel added. I gained less than 3/4 mpg overall. So, maybe there are folks who can take a snapshot of 100 miles driven at 55 mph on flat ground and see something significant....but show me the data...several thousand miles driven before and after delete with gallons consumed. And no, I am not one who hammers on vehicles. I am not saying a mpg increase can't happen....I am saying that when I go on websites about mpg and also look at my own results, there wasn't enough increase in fuel mileage to justify the cost of the delete. Check out Fuelly.com and my super duty seems to hit right in the average for other vehicles. 3.) The different strategies to raise the exhaust temperature CAN have an effect on engine oil....but so can an injector that fails open. I've put over 70,000 miles on non deleted 2012 and 2018 super duties and have every oil change sent for analysis. No oil dilution problems. Thus, the emission system is not negatively impacting the motor. 4.) Coking can occur with the EGR system, correct. I believe a lot of these issues have been mitigated with newer strategies. Early model diesels with the emissions systems suffered from myriad issues. Today's diesels have far fewer incidents. 5.) There is a real difference in what comes out the tailpipe. I am not a fan of black soot and while it may be a heavy particle, it does cause visible problems and health issues. Things I liked about my deleted truck: Whistle of turbo, peace of mind with knowing I wouldn't have sensor problems. Things I didn't like: exhaust smell, no warranty. Thanks for sharing the video and information. Your explanation of the exhaust components was great!

Sprinter owner, got 19mpg before and 25mpg after. Huge difference, probably depends on the make and model you own how much change you experience. Had constant sensor issues and dealer support was frankly underwhelming (9 reset and repair appointments in first three months of ownership, no ability to "fix" issues). Now, no sensor issues and no dealer support, so I feel that is basically a net improvement.

Great explanation of diesel emission controls. You are 100% correct that the cure is worse than the disease when it comes to engine emission controls. I have noticed the same with gasoline engines as well, although the gains from deleting the emission controls on a gas engine are nowhere near as significant as they are on diesel engines. I have long thought that the environment would be better served if regulators focused more on efficient combustion verses emission treatment. Great video. Well done.

@richardtheweaver4891

Жыл бұрын

The problem is that "more efficient" by the laws of physics entails stoichiometric combustion specifically because all else being equal the hotter the burn the more efficient the engine. But Nitrogen in the air ionizes well below that temperature, so an efficient engine by definition has nitrogen ions flying around during combustion, and nitrogen ions like to bond with oxygen, creating NOX. NOX is not that big of an issue if the burn is stoichiometric, like current petrol engines, because it is easily removed as long as the exhaust doesn't have significant oxygen remaining. But current diesels run lean, and so have oxygenated exhausts. And current diesel design sucks when running stoichiometrically. Since the combustion chamber walls are relatively cold combustion is quenched and you end up "rolling coal". So yes, the compression ignition engine needs a complete overhaul since the two types of emissions, NOX vs everything else, can't be easily handled at the same time without running stoichometrically, and soot forms near surfaces that are below ignition temperature. So yes, a complete redesign of compression ignition engines is required. They need to be replaced with hot wall ignition engines. This solves the soot problem while enabling stoichiometric combustion, which enables a cheap three-way cat to function.

“Gas mileage can be reduced up to 30% to 50%” any references to back this up? A normally functioning DPF will hardly effect mileage. A clogged DPF will reduce mileage dramatically. But a clogged DPF is symptom not a cause. If you have a DPF problem, check your MAF sensor, injectors, etc. I still have the original DPF on my car with 235k on it. And it still runs like when it was new.

I agree when I discuss mileage in my diesel trucks I refer to it as fuel economy. Also the DEF I buy is clear I think he said it was “blue like windshield washer fluid”. I agree with another comment that the best delete would be an EPA delete!

Some states are cracking down on deleting emissions control, results in big fines, and they force you to reinstall everything you removed.

I love the emissions controls because it’s so clean and no high carcinogenic into the lung. Luckily I have a third generation eco-diesel from my 2023 gladiator. They fixed a lot of the issues on this engine. One of the biggest things is you get the EGR after the DPF so it’s quite clean now. Do 4000 mile oil change. I run 85+ redline additive in the tank as well.

You explained this very well . Most people don't know the reasons to do this other than the Horse Power reason. My truck actually runs smoother and like I said way better gas mileage . I get 27mpg on expressway in the winter gas and 30mpg on summer gas with HotShot Diesel additive .

Deleted my 2010 Ram 3500 one month after I bought it, 9 years later and 300,000 kms, best thing I ever did. Better fuel economy, more pulling power, no DPF issues. Full delete, but guess what, every 20,000 or so kms, a 'service exhaust system soon' message comes up on my dash. A timed message from the manufacturer no doubt so they can suck you into spending some more money at their shop. I have never brought my truck in for any emissions or exhaust work since it was deleted, so that is a scam for sure.

This was really interesting. What I have not seen is reasonable effective emmissions control measures. It's a little like if someone had an amputation deciding the solution is to cut off the good leg to make it the same length. Carbon emmessions can be cleaned up through proper tunning and a catalytic convereter to completely the cumbustion reaction. The NOx issue is better handled by reducing or emoving N from or again by introducing H to the combustion cycle either trough direct injection of H2 gas into the combustion chamber or catalytic converter or with NH4. The biggest change would be oil companies pre treating diesel fuels with solvents to completely remove Sulphur and nitrous compounds in the fuel. Biodiesel blends can substantially reduce NOx and SOx emissions. So I say get on the case of fuel producers to develop a sustainable product, not the individual auto producer or auto owner.

Diesel injectors and fuel pumps are lubricated by the sulfur in diesel fuel. If they remove sulfur they will have to put something else in its place to keep the lubricity. In fact modern "low sulfur" diesel fuel doesn't lube nearly as good as it he old stuff. So now you have people who own older diesels pouring 2 stroke oil into their fuel to help lubricate the injection pumps.

Thank you for this explanation sir! We almost bought a brand new 2021 jeep eco-diesel.

thank you sir for such a well done and thorough explanation!

Another serious possible effect caused by one of these systems happened to me. I had a 2007 Mazda 6 turbo diesel, which was fitted with a DPF. It was the first DPF equipped diesel that I had owned and I didn't understand how the system operated. I had owned the car for about two years and it was nearly due for its annual service. On my journey home from work one day, I was accelerating quite hard on a slip road, to join the motorway. On joining the motorway, I reduced pressure on the throttle, but instead of reducing speed, the car continued to accelerate - pretty violently! In my confused state, I pressed down on the clutch pedal and the tachometer needle tried to wrap itself around the stop - at which point I realised what was happening. What had happened, was the excess diesel fuel being injected into the engine, that was meant to force a regen of the catalist, had diluted the oil in the sump so much that it had raised the sump level to a point where it was being used by the engine as fuel. I was now dealing with a diesel runaway. I managed to control my speed with the brakes until the sump level had reduced enough to stop the runaway situation. To cut a long story short, the Mazda dealer didn't want to know, as I had been responsible for checking the oil level. They stated that the catalytic convertor was probably now 'junk', and would need to be replaced at a cost of about £2000... I will never buy another Diesel car.

Gary, I wouldn't be surprised if Diesels are soon outlawed in the U.K. I've read that France has already set a timetable for eliminating diesel powered vehicles. I don't know how this is going to square with the Trucking industry over there, or if it's even applicable to commercial trucks. But, knowing the Bleeding Heart Environmental movement, I suspect that it does.

When I lived out in CA, all vehicles had to pass the smog test. Now keep in mind, just waving the wand in the air would show fail, due to all the smog, but once that air went thru the engine, it would come out cleaner than when it went in. My 74 Dodge Dart, 225, would average about 12 mpg. My buddy's 74 Nova with the 250, averaged about 8 mpg with all the emission controls. Both were new vehicles. My buddy moved to Ohio, stripped the engine of all emissions stuff, and mileage went up to 24 mpg. I moved to IL and just traded mine in. I often wondered what an emission test would show with better mileage.

Recently had a DPF issue on my 2014 German performance SUV. Tried to regen with service mode or with high RPM on a highway and different additives with no effect. The cost replace DPF was around $5500, which is insane. Quoted $700 to $1k to clean, but no guarantee, it could fail in 6 months again. Also did an oil change and oil was very dark and thick, full of soot, making a huge wear on the engine. After a long research made a decision to do a delete and implement a Melone tune (ECU remap with delete) stage 2 on my TDI. It costed me $2100 for straight pipe, ECU remap and labor to put the pipes on. One of best decision I made. CEL went away, the truck got significantly more responsive, got plus 70hp, cut 1 sec on 0-60. MPG were improved by around 20% in city and 10% on a highway, giving me plus 50 to100 miles range on a tank. Got more range, power, torque, engine life and no headache over DPF/DEF. I am very happy with delete, highly recommend to diesel owners.

New to the Diesel world (2017 F350 6.7L) I have watched 100+ videos, read forums, and talked with a few longtime owners. This was the best video to teach me about the engine process and understand the EPA junk. 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. My Vote - Delete everything. I would think the Aftermarket community would have "Compliant" fixes with upgraded systems. Hell, there's probably Government grant money for companies to do so. But there isn't.

Excellent video. Thank you so much!

Anything that reduces the fuel consumption per horsepower hour is ultimately a reduction in emissions. When I delete, the first thing to go, is the EGR. I think you can avoid deleting the DPF and SCR by driving with gradual movement on the accelerator, giving the turbo time to spin up as you need more power. That prevents "rolling coal", because of the sudden increase of fuel, before the turbo has time to spool up to boost. Smooth easy transitions in throttle will allow the computer and turbo to adapt to the new demand. Less particulates, less need to regenerate the DPF, and maintaining the SCR. I've never owned a GM diesel equipped with a SCR. How much DEF does it use per 20 gallons of diesel fuel? How expensive is it? Do you just add each time you fuel up?

If a deleted diesel gets 50% better mileage, it would appear half as much fuel would be used. Then you get into reduced pollution from diesel fuel production, transportation, storage, etc. It's screwy to have all this crap on an engine to reduce vehicle emissions at the cost of increasing fuel consumption, decreased engine life, increasing vehicle maintenance costs, reducing reliability, etc.

Ellenor Malik I know right! I’m ignorant to all this emissions stuff. After paying the damn money. I now start my research like a dummy. I guess I’m going for the delete option. This is my livelihood. I witnessed a friend cough up roughly 40k in 3yrs on a 2011 Sprinter. 90% of it do to emissions. Sprinters are made by Mercedes. You can imagine the invoices.

The doc is an important part of the diesel fuel chemical reaction needed to increase EGTs to burn off particulate matter caught in the substrates in the dpf and decrease nox. Other than that great simplified demonstration. I have wondered though if you delete the egr cooler do you lose any air mass. Probably not a lot as long as the tune makes up for it with the VGT on the turbo. but what if you don't put a delete tune and just plate off the egr cooler like so many 6.0 owners do and just deal with the CEL for egr insufficient flow. Is there less air flow than normally requested? And could drilling a hole in the egr passage way in the intake with an air filter be a good way to bring back that air flow and replacing the dirty egr gases with clean air and taking the CEL away? Might try it on my 6.0 and let you know on a dyno if there were any differences. - Seth Mazza from va

great vid and excellent commentary. A great alternative to the straight pipe delete is cutting the DPF open, clearing of the dpf element, weld the shell back together and reinstall. From a cursory look, the DPF appears to be installed ... but it's just a giant section of exhaust pipe. Delete DEFINITELY extends engine life. Get a little throatier tone to your exhaust, too! :) BTW ... diesel trucks entering a hay field? Never happens right? The "genius" EPA goofballs ... yeah, put >1100 degree metal in contact/close prox to dry grass. what could POSSIBLY go wrong???

Uh.... on my friends 2018 ram that is deleted we found that if the turner does a good job it still burns extremely clean. It can be ran on its highest setting +200hp and you can only get any smoke at low boost which with the newer turbos isn’t for very long. Biggest thing I noticed is that the stock turbo went from running 26psi max boost to 39psi max boost. That for obvious reason adds a lot of power. Didn’t notice any increase in fuel mileage however didn’t see a decrease which was surprising considering how much more fuel is added to go along with the extra 13 pounds of boost. So far so good. Unloaded probably 500# worth of crap off the truck and dropped the egt considerably. That’s all due to the huge reduction in the exhaust back pressure. This is his 6th deleted ram and will do it again. This one was deleted at 140 miles and it was amazing how much build up was already in the egr cross over tube. Also another thing to consider is how extremely corrosive def is. It’s literally liquid urea which is used as a nitrogen fertilizer on farms across the United States. Great vid. Thanks.
