Clean Air Act for Diesels

I just heared from the radio this morning. Sa 2004 pa daw ipatutupad ang reduction ng sulfur content from 0.2 to 0.05%. Ang sa gasolines lang daw and ipatutupad this 2003.

nagtataka ako, kc galing me canada and u know, only gas engines are subjected to emission testing. dun kc pag diesel ang ride mo ay d mo na nid pa emission testing same goes for motorcycles. kaya how will they test our diesel rides.... eh talagang mausok na yan kahit bagong bili pa...

oo nga e. nabasa ko din sa isang book na more toxic pa nga ang emissions ng gasoline engines than diesel. hindi lang kasi gaanong nakikita usok ng gas engines, unlike diesel engines na itim talaga ang usok, kaya akala ng mga tao walang pollution ang gas engines.

sa europe, masmahal ang kanilang diesel fuel kaysa sa petroleum. masmalinis ang diesel nila doon. advanced na kasi masyado yung mga diesel engines nila.

karamihan kasi ng diesel engines dito surplus and poorly maintain plus the low quality of diesel we have.

i was impressed to know that even the super beetle has came up with a 1.9liter turbo diesel and ford with their TDCi engine for their SUVs. i wonder if such will be offered in the local market.

i doubt if ford can come up with small displacement diesel engines, eh dodge nga may diesel v10 nanman 4 their dodge ram pick up. same goes for the fork n chevy pick ups.

small engines are manufactured by mazda under ford. (e.g. ranger)

yup kaya cguro they bought mazda to get a piece of the small disp diesel engines but they don't make their own, sharing lang, so far yung 2.5 tdi ng ranger ang engine nila. chevy n dodge wala pa din burt dodge might get one from mitsu o mbenz? yung ml kc may 207cdi engine ng m class.
