    '15 Nissan Titan pickup will get new Cummins diesel engine

    ISV5.0 Engine Here's the latest info from Cummins on the ISV 5. 0 (5. 0 L V8 diesel) http://cumminsengines.com/cummins-announces-isv50-engine-. It is a CGI block. This surprised me given the old info about the Cummins development engines (5. 6L V8 and 4. 6L V6) that we're going into a Dodge...

    '15 Nissan Titan pickup will get new Cummins diesel engine

    To date, I've not seen any specifics about this 5. 0L V8. The previous engine development was around two engines, a 5. 6L 90 deg V8 and 4. 2L 90 deg V6. It was going to be a CGI block (compacted graphic iron as opposed to grey cast iron). When the 5. 0L V8 looked like it was going into the Dodge...

    Turning plastic to oil video

    I wish he would have quantified what kind of plastic he used and how much energy is required to extract some quantity of fuel. He also doesn't state what the residue/by-product that is left. I've seen this before and thought it was interesting tho.

    half ton diesel - why?

    Because even with emissions handicap, a modern common rail diesel can be ~30% more fuel efficient. And if you plan on driving a vehicle for 200K+ miles, this will make up for the price premium for diesel in the USA. Also, having current diesel vehicle myself (in sig), it handsomely rewards a...

    EGR again

    I just did the EGR maintenance on the 6. 7L early during holidays (~63500 mi, truck in FL, I'm in CA). I did not see much in to way of build-up/blockage in the system. The truck is used about 25% of the time towing a horse trailer (8-9K). One data point for you.

    VM Diesel (Fiat) V6 Possibly Being Tested in Ram 1500

    I'm sure it will have SCR (urea) system to meet NOx emissions and free it up for better fuel economy (if you can keep your foot out of the accelerator). I have a 2012 Jetta TDI (2. 0L/140 HP/236 lb-ft)and I'm averaging 45 mpg while driving normally. It'll go down to 35 mpg with a heavy foot and...

    First Oil Change, What a Gusher!

    I've another question that may be obvious to others: when you remove the dipstick, clean it and re-insert, how far do you insert, all the way or until just before it 'clicks' into place?

    Marchionne Talks Diesel is America

    In this short Q&A, Marchionne sounds like a 'no nonesense' guy. He's going to introduce diesels into the markets starting with the Grand Cherokee in 1st quarter of 2013 and work their way down into the market based on American acceptance. He didn't think they (diesel engines) would reach the...
