Forgive me if this has already been posted but I don't remember seeing anything before about this (came from the "What's new" section on the Dieselnet site). I believe the 2-stroke engine is the most common model made by Detroit Diesel (someone correct me if I'm wrong) thus use of the TurboPac supercharger system as part of retrofits should auger well for future sales. ------------------------------------------------------------- Urban Bus Retrofit/Rebuild - DDC equipment certified for 0.1 g/bhp-hr PM standard on 2-stroke DDC engines Effective April 7, 1998, the U.S. EPA certified urban bus retrofit/rebuild equipment submitted by Detroit Diesel Corporation (DDC). The equipment has been certified to the 0.1 g/bhp-hr particulate matter (PM) standard, applicable to all 6V-92TA MUI engine models made by DDC for model years 1979 to 1989 and equipped with mechanical unit injectors (MUI). The equipment consists of the base engine components used on the 25% PM reduction retrofit/rebuild kit certified by DDC (October 2, 1995), components from the 25% retrofit catalyst muffler kit previously certified under the program by Engine Control Systems, Ltd. (January 6, 1997), and a TurboPac supercharger system supplied by Turbodyne Systems, Inc. The 0.10 g/bhp-hr PM level has already been triggered for all engines covered by this certification. The DDC kit may be used by operators who are required to use equipment that meets the 0.10 g/bhp-hr PM level based on earlier trigger certification. Contact: Anthony Erb, EPA, (202) 233-9259.
