Do you know what DEF fluid is? It’s Diesel Exhaust Fluid. Every Diesel truck that has been made since 2010 is required to use it. It’s a product made of 67% Urea fertilizer and 33% distilled water.


Sounds like a combustion additive for NOx reduction. The urea is the dead giveaway (SNCR). I’m sure, mechanically and sensor-wise, there’s a way to get around this.

The stuff is not required, just enviro-wacko garbage.

You win the topic.

Same material that’s in Catalyst put on big RICE in the field.
And, Magnesium Hydroxide (Milk of Magnesia) to strip sulfur compounds.

there is some type expensive emissions modification required to adapt a standard diesel engine to burn with the DEF additive for over the road use.

some diesel motor manufacturers such as CAT said F it and quit making engines suitable for over the road in 2008 (I think when the new emission standards went into effect)

there has to be a way to revert to just regular diesel fuel.
