INTRODUCTION There are other components in an engine, such as turbocharger, camshaft, piston, etc., which are specifically designed and manufactured to exacting standards for emissions compliance. It is important that these components, if replaced, modified or substituted, can be verified to ensure that the engine remains in compliance with emissions standards. The use of inadequately engineered, manufactured or tested components in repair or rebuild of the engine may be in violation of the federal Clean Air Act and applicable U.S. EPA or CARB regulations.
Furthermore, modern engines exhibit operating parameters which require the use of proper fluids, such as fuel, coolant and lubricating oil, to maintain long engine life. The use of fluids that do not meet Detroit Diesel Corporation specifications may result in early wear out or engine failure. 2 All information subject to change without notice.
