A maintenance program is especially important when the stored diesel is for a standby or emergency generator. These generators do not get to run very often, and the fuel source is all too often overlooked in testing and maintenance. When an emergency situation presents itself, you need to know...
Diesel also has seen some competition from fully electric trains, which pull directly from a power grid as they drive. This method is several times more efficient than burning any kind of onboard fuel to produce energy. Electric locomotives are especially popular in Europe and Asia, but the ...
It used to be all you had to do was keep fuel in the tank, change the oil every once in a while and your diesel would always take care of you. At least it seemed that way… Then the torque war between the Big Three took over and the EPA began to ramp up emission standards. The...
By combining the biofeedstock, and traditional fossil fuel to make co-processed renewable diesel, bp reduces the amount of higher carbon fossil fuel, while increasing the amount of lower carbon bio feedstock to make its diesel. 3. Distribute – and s...
The job of the locomotive is to change the chemical energy from the fuel (wood, coal, diesel fuel) into the kinetic energy of motion. The first locomotives did this with a steam engine, which you can read more about in How Steam Technology Works. The steam locomotive lasted for about a...
using a diesel fuel additive, such as anti-gels, or creating a winter blend diesel fuel, mixing 70% diesel no. 2 with 30% diesel no. 1 when the temperature begins to drop below 35 degrees Fahrenheit. Once the temperature drops into the negatives, you should switch to pure diesel no. ...
Diesel Fuel Savers by V.A.P.S.T.E.R Vaporizing Accessory Producing Superior Tuned Engine Response Doing Business Since 2009 "We serve Industry by offering consumers more fuel efficiency resulting in lower energy costs. Vapster-Diesel products reduce emis
This improvement should make meeting toughening emissions standards far easier–and could pave the way for a new diesel era in the United States. “The cleaner diesel fuel opens the door to diesel cars that can be as clean as gasoline cars, yet offer 20 to 40 percent better fuel economy,...
If your vehicle runs on diesel fuel, you’ll need diesel motor oil with additional additives—but the oil change itself shouldn’t take any extra time. Talk to your technician when you arrive for a Signature Service Oil Change® at Jiffy Lube®. They’ll be able to give you a more ...
