2 Lubricating Oil Requirements

21 Lubricating Oil RequirementsIn general lubricating oil selection for Detroittrade engines is based on viscosity grade and service category as defined byindustry standards and is displayed in the API symbol shown in the following section Oils identified by this system andlicensed by API provide adequate service in most applications In 2002 Detroittrade initiated additional criteria to theserequirements through the use of Detroit Fluids Specifications which resulted in a listing of preferred oils for Detroittradeengines

NOTE For 2-cycle and all Off-Highway engine lubricating oil fuel and coolant requirements refer to MTUTechnical Publication Fluids and Lubricants Specification Bulletin A00106135E (or most recent) This bulletin isavailable from authorized MTU distributors

22 Identification of API Service ClassificationBelow are examples of American Petroleum Institute (API) certification donuts for the most current diesel engine oilcategories

Figure 1 Examples of API Symbols

23 API FA-4 Versus API CK-4 and API CJ-4 Versus API CI-4 PlusAPI Service Category FA-4 oils are designed primarily for use with EPA10 GHG14 and GHG17 compliant enginesequipped with cooled EGR and exhaust aftertreatment devices operating on Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel (below 15ppm) These oils are designed with reduced ash and phosphorous content to minimize degradation of aftertreatment deviceswhile providing complete wear deposit and soot control

API Service Category CK-4 and CJ-4 oils are designed primarily for use with EPA07 EPA10 GHG14 and GHG17compliant engines equipped with cooled EGR and exhaust aftertreatment devices operating on Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel(ULSD) fuel (below 15 ppm) These oils are designed with reduced ash and phosphorous content to minimize degradation ofaftertreatment devices while providing complete wear deposit and soot control API CK-4 and CJ-4 oils may also be used inall diesel engines operating with ULSD fuel

API Service category CI-4 PLUS oils were designed primarily for use with 2002 EPA emission compliant engines equippedwith cooled EGR operating on Low Sulfur Diesel (LSD) fuel (below 500 ppm) These oils are formulated with higher ashand phosphorus content and were not intended for use in engines with aftertreatment devices Their use in EPA07 enginesmay cause premature aftertreatment filter plugging

There is a subtle but important difference between oils meeting the API CI-4 and the API CI-4 PLUS service categoryShortly after their inception the API CI-4 category requirements were modified for improved soot handling and shearstability An engine oil formulation that meets the modified requirements would qualify for API CI-4 PLUS Due to their

superior performance in EGR-equipped engines without aftertreatment devices Detroittrade recommends only CI-4 PLUS oilsDetroittrade does not recommend the use of oils that only meet the CI-4 service category

24 Approved Oils mdash Detroit Fluids SpecificationIn 2005 Detroittrade issued its first listing of approved oils based on Detroit Fluids Specification These specificationsrepresented an enhanced performance level beyond the industry-based service category system Oils meeting thesespecifications undergo additional review of performance claims include added performance requirements for Detroittradeinternational family of engines compared to API certified engine oils The added confidence in performance of these oilsallows Detroittrade customers to maximize oil drain intervals and engine service life beyond those permitted with industry-based engine oils Refer to section Oil Drain Intervals

Three Detroittrade approved oil specifications exist for different applications The list of oils meeting these specifications maybe viewed as follows

3 Lubricating Oil Additional Information

31 Lubricating Oil Additional InformationSelection of lubricating oil that meets the proper criteria is necessary for proper engine lubrication Additional informationwhich may be used to select an appropriate engine oil are provided in the following sections

32 SAE Viscosity Grade SelectionViscosity is a measure of an oilrsquos resistance to flow at various temperatures The SAE Viscosity Grade system is defined inSAE Standard J300 that designates a viscosity range with a grade number Lubricants with two grade numbers separated by aldquoWrdquo such as 15W-40 are classified as multigrade while those with a single number are monograde The higher the numberthe higher the viscosity

The viscosity requirements associated with each SAE viscosity grade are listed in Table SAE Viscosity Grades for EngineOils (SAE J300) This information is important in selecting the best viscosity grade for the anticipated ambient temperaturerange at which the engine will start and operate Use it only as a guideline since actual operating conditions of the enginemay determine the lowest practical temperature at which an engine will start and operate Note that grades designated with aldquoWrdquo are required to meet both low temperature and high temperature viscosity requirements

Figure 2 Operating Ranges for Viscosity Grades

33 High TemperatureHigh Shear ViscosityHigh TemperatureHigh Shear (HTHS) viscosity is measured at 150degC (302degF) under shear stress conditions similar to verythin film lubrication areas such as those found at the piston ring-to-cylinder wall interface The value obtained from this testprovides an indication of temporary shear stability of the viscosity index improver used in multigrade oils An HTHSviscosity below 37 cP indicates that the oil will not perform as a 40 grade oil at engine operating conditions

34 Sulfated Ash and Total Base NumberSulfated ash is a lubricant property measured by a laboratory test (ASTM D 874) to determine the potential for formation ofmetallic ash The ash residue is related to the oil additive composition and is significant in predicting lubricants which maycause valve distress cylinder kit scuffing or exhaust catalyst plugging under certain operating conditions API FA-4 CK-4and CJ-4 approved oil cannot exceed 10 wt of sulfated ash and CI-4 PLUS approved oil cannot exceed 20 wt TotalBase Number (TBN) which measures an oil alkalinity and ability to neutralize acid using a laboratory test (ASTM D 2896 orD 4739) is related to sulfated ash level and plays an important role in controlling deposits in four-cycle diesel enginesTypically a quality engine oil will have a fresh TBN over 80 mg KOHg per ASTM D 2896

35 Universal OilsUniversal oils are designed for use with both gasoline and diesel engines and provide an operational convenience in mixedengine fleets These products are identified with combination API category designations such as CK-4SN Although suchproducts can be used in Detroittrade engines (provided they satisfy all Detroittrade requirements) their use is not as desirable aslubricants formulated specifically for diesel engines and having API FA-4 CK-4 and CJ-4 designations When selecting auniversal oil select one with the ldquoCrdquo category first as this should be primarily intended for diesel service

36 Synthetic OilsSynthetic oils may be used in Detroittrade engines provided they are approved by a Detroit Fluids Specification The use ofsynthetic oils does not necessarily ensure the extension of the recommended oil drain intervals beyond the limits

39 The Use Of Supplemental AdditivesLubricants meeting Detroit Fluids Specification outlined in this publication contain a carefully balanced additive treatmentThe use of supplemental additives such as break-in oils top oils graphitizers and friction-reducing compounds in these fullyformulated lubricants are not necessary and can upset the oil formulation causing a deterioration in performance Thesesupplemental additives may be marketed as either oil treatments or engine treatments and should not be used Their use willnot void your Detroittrade product warranty however engine damage resulting from the use of such materials is not coveredThe use of such additives is at the customers risk Detroittrade will not provide statements relative to their use beyond thispublication

310 Purchasing Bulk Engine OilTo ensure continuing quality of engine oil purchased in bulk quantities procurement specifications should include arequirement that the supplier follow API Recommended Practice 1525 for handling bulk engine oils This voluntary practicecontains guidelines for quality control tracking within the suppliers process In addition customers are advised to obtain acontrol sample to be used as a reference for acceptance of bulk shipments

311 Recycled Re-Refined OilsDetroittrade favors the recycling of waste oil and permits the use of rerefined oils in all engine product lines provided thererefined oil meets the SAE Viscosity and API specifications previously mentioned Several processes are used to rerefine oilThe only true rerefining process is one which treats the used oil as a crude oil subjecting it to the same refinery processes

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

46 Used Lubricating Oil AnalysisDetroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis or used-oil analysis program is recommended for all engines Oil analysis consists oflaboratory tests to indicate conditions of the engine andor the lubricant The ldquoWarning Limitsrdquo are listed in Table ldquoSingleSample Used-Oil Analysis Warning Limitsrdquo Oil analysis cannot completely assess the lubricating oil and should not be usedto maximize oil drain intervals Change oil immediately if contamination exceeds warning limits listed below

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

2 Lubricating Oil Requirements

21 Lubricating Oil RequirementsIn general lubricating oil selection for Detroittrade engines is based on viscosity grade and service category as defined byindustry standards and is displayed in the API symbol shown in the following section Oils identified by this system andlicensed by API provide adequate service in most applications In 2002 Detroittrade initiated additional criteria to theserequirements through the use of Detroit Fluids Specifications which resulted in a listing of preferred oils for Detroittradeengines

NOTE For 2-cycle and all Off-Highway engine lubricating oil fuel and coolant requirements refer to MTUTechnical Publication Fluids and Lubricants Specification Bulletin A00106135E (or most recent) This bulletin isavailable from authorized MTU distributors

22 Identification of API Service ClassificationBelow are examples of American Petroleum Institute (API) certification donuts for the most current diesel engine oilcategories

Figure 1 Examples of API Symbols

23 API FA-4 Versus API CK-4 and API CJ-4 Versus API CI-4 PlusAPI Service Category FA-4 oils are designed primarily for use with EPA10 GHG14 and GHG17 compliant enginesequipped with cooled EGR and exhaust aftertreatment devices operating on Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel (below 15ppm) These oils are designed with reduced ash and phosphorous content to minimize degradation of aftertreatment deviceswhile providing complete wear deposit and soot control

API Service Category CK-4 and CJ-4 oils are designed primarily for use with EPA07 EPA10 GHG14 and GHG17compliant engines equipped with cooled EGR and exhaust aftertreatment devices operating on Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel(ULSD) fuel (below 15 ppm) These oils are designed with reduced ash and phosphorous content to minimize degradation ofaftertreatment devices while providing complete wear deposit and soot control API CK-4 and CJ-4 oils may also be used inall diesel engines operating with ULSD fuel

API Service category CI-4 PLUS oils were designed primarily for use with 2002 EPA emission compliant engines equippedwith cooled EGR operating on Low Sulfur Diesel (LSD) fuel (below 500 ppm) These oils are formulated with higher ashand phosphorus content and were not intended for use in engines with aftertreatment devices Their use in EPA07 enginesmay cause premature aftertreatment filter plugging

There is a subtle but important difference between oils meeting the API CI-4 and the API CI-4 PLUS service categoryShortly after their inception the API CI-4 category requirements were modified for improved soot handling and shearstability An engine oil formulation that meets the modified requirements would qualify for API CI-4 PLUS Due to their

superior performance in EGR-equipped engines without aftertreatment devices Detroittrade recommends only CI-4 PLUS oilsDetroittrade does not recommend the use of oils that only meet the CI-4 service category

24 Approved Oils mdash Detroit Fluids SpecificationIn 2005 Detroittrade issued its first listing of approved oils based on Detroit Fluids Specification These specificationsrepresented an enhanced performance level beyond the industry-based service category system Oils meeting thesespecifications undergo additional review of performance claims include added performance requirements for Detroittradeinternational family of engines compared to API certified engine oils The added confidence in performance of these oilsallows Detroittrade customers to maximize oil drain intervals and engine service life beyond those permitted with industry-based engine oils Refer to section Oil Drain Intervals

Three Detroittrade approved oil specifications exist for different applications The list of oils meeting these specifications maybe viewed as follows

3 Lubricating Oil Additional Information

31 Lubricating Oil Additional InformationSelection of lubricating oil that meets the proper criteria is necessary for proper engine lubrication Additional informationwhich may be used to select an appropriate engine oil are provided in the following sections

32 SAE Viscosity Grade SelectionViscosity is a measure of an oilrsquos resistance to flow at various temperatures The SAE Viscosity Grade system is defined inSAE Standard J300 that designates a viscosity range with a grade number Lubricants with two grade numbers separated by aldquoWrdquo such as 15W-40 are classified as multigrade while those with a single number are monograde The higher the numberthe higher the viscosity

The viscosity requirements associated with each SAE viscosity grade are listed in Table SAE Viscosity Grades for EngineOils (SAE J300) This information is important in selecting the best viscosity grade for the anticipated ambient temperaturerange at which the engine will start and operate Use it only as a guideline since actual operating conditions of the enginemay determine the lowest practical temperature at which an engine will start and operate Note that grades designated with aldquoWrdquo are required to meet both low temperature and high temperature viscosity requirements

Figure 2 Operating Ranges for Viscosity Grades

33 High TemperatureHigh Shear ViscosityHigh TemperatureHigh Shear (HTHS) viscosity is measured at 150degC (302degF) under shear stress conditions similar to verythin film lubrication areas such as those found at the piston ring-to-cylinder wall interface The value obtained from this testprovides an indication of temporary shear stability of the viscosity index improver used in multigrade oils An HTHSviscosity below 37 cP indicates that the oil will not perform as a 40 grade oil at engine operating conditions

34 Sulfated Ash and Total Base NumberSulfated ash is a lubricant property measured by a laboratory test (ASTM D 874) to determine the potential for formation ofmetallic ash The ash residue is related to the oil additive composition and is significant in predicting lubricants which maycause valve distress cylinder kit scuffing or exhaust catalyst plugging under certain operating conditions API FA-4 CK-4and CJ-4 approved oil cannot exceed 10 wt of sulfated ash and CI-4 PLUS approved oil cannot exceed 20 wt TotalBase Number (TBN) which measures an oil alkalinity and ability to neutralize acid using a laboratory test (ASTM D 2896 orD 4739) is related to sulfated ash level and plays an important role in controlling deposits in four-cycle diesel enginesTypically a quality engine oil will have a fresh TBN over 80 mg KOHg per ASTM D 2896

35 Universal OilsUniversal oils are designed for use with both gasoline and diesel engines and provide an operational convenience in mixedengine fleets These products are identified with combination API category designations such as CK-4SN Although suchproducts can be used in Detroittrade engines (provided they satisfy all Detroittrade requirements) their use is not as desirable aslubricants formulated specifically for diesel engines and having API FA-4 CK-4 and CJ-4 designations When selecting auniversal oil select one with the ldquoCrdquo category first as this should be primarily intended for diesel service

36 Synthetic OilsSynthetic oils may be used in Detroittrade engines provided they are approved by a Detroit Fluids Specification The use ofsynthetic oils does not necessarily ensure the extension of the recommended oil drain intervals beyond the limits

39 The Use Of Supplemental AdditivesLubricants meeting Detroit Fluids Specification outlined in this publication contain a carefully balanced additive treatmentThe use of supplemental additives such as break-in oils top oils graphitizers and friction-reducing compounds in these fullyformulated lubricants are not necessary and can upset the oil formulation causing a deterioration in performance Thesesupplemental additives may be marketed as either oil treatments or engine treatments and should not be used Their use willnot void your Detroittrade product warranty however engine damage resulting from the use of such materials is not coveredThe use of such additives is at the customers risk Detroittrade will not provide statements relative to their use beyond thispublication

310 Purchasing Bulk Engine OilTo ensure continuing quality of engine oil purchased in bulk quantities procurement specifications should include arequirement that the supplier follow API Recommended Practice 1525 for handling bulk engine oils This voluntary practicecontains guidelines for quality control tracking within the suppliers process In addition customers are advised to obtain acontrol sample to be used as a reference for acceptance of bulk shipments

311 Recycled Re-Refined OilsDetroittrade favors the recycling of waste oil and permits the use of rerefined oils in all engine product lines provided thererefined oil meets the SAE Viscosity and API specifications previously mentioned Several processes are used to rerefine oilThe only true rerefining process is one which treats the used oil as a crude oil subjecting it to the same refinery processes

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 15DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

46 Used Lubricating Oil AnalysisDetroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis or used-oil analysis program is recommended for all engines Oil analysis consists oflaboratory tests to indicate conditions of the engine andor the lubricant The ldquoWarning Limitsrdquo are listed in Table ldquoSingleSample Used-Oil Analysis Warning Limitsrdquo Oil analysis cannot completely assess the lubricating oil and should not be usedto maximize oil drain intervals Change oil immediately if contamination exceeds warning limits listed below

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

2 Lubricating Oil Requirements

21 Lubricating Oil RequirementsIn general lubricating oil selection for Detroittrade engines is based on viscosity grade and service category as defined byindustry standards and is displayed in the API symbol shown in the following section Oils identified by this system andlicensed by API provide adequate service in most applications In 2002 Detroittrade initiated additional criteria to theserequirements through the use of Detroit Fluids Specifications which resulted in a listing of preferred oils for Detroittradeengines

NOTE For 2-cycle and all Off-Highway engine lubricating oil fuel and coolant requirements refer to MTUTechnical Publication Fluids and Lubricants Specification Bulletin A00106135E (or most recent) This bulletin isavailable from authorized MTU distributors

22 Identification of API Service ClassificationBelow are examples of American Petroleum Institute (API) certification donuts for the most current diesel engine oilcategories

Figure 1 Examples of API Symbols

23 API FA-4 Versus API CK-4 and API CJ-4 Versus API CI-4 PlusAPI Service Category FA-4 oils are designed primarily for use with EPA10 GHG14 and GHG17 compliant enginesequipped with cooled EGR and exhaust aftertreatment devices operating on Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel (below 15ppm) These oils are designed with reduced ash and phosphorous content to minimize degradation of aftertreatment deviceswhile providing complete wear deposit and soot control

API Service Category CK-4 and CJ-4 oils are designed primarily for use with EPA07 EPA10 GHG14 and GHG17compliant engines equipped with cooled EGR and exhaust aftertreatment devices operating on Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel(ULSD) fuel (below 15 ppm) These oils are designed with reduced ash and phosphorous content to minimize degradation ofaftertreatment devices while providing complete wear deposit and soot control API CK-4 and CJ-4 oils may also be used inall diesel engines operating with ULSD fuel

API Service category CI-4 PLUS oils were designed primarily for use with 2002 EPA emission compliant engines equippedwith cooled EGR operating on Low Sulfur Diesel (LSD) fuel (below 500 ppm) These oils are formulated with higher ashand phosphorus content and were not intended for use in engines with aftertreatment devices Their use in EPA07 enginesmay cause premature aftertreatment filter plugging

There is a subtle but important difference between oils meeting the API CI-4 and the API CI-4 PLUS service categoryShortly after their inception the API CI-4 category requirements were modified for improved soot handling and shearstability An engine oil formulation that meets the modified requirements would qualify for API CI-4 PLUS Due to their

superior performance in EGR-equipped engines without aftertreatment devices Detroittrade recommends only CI-4 PLUS oilsDetroittrade does not recommend the use of oils that only meet the CI-4 service category

24 Approved Oils mdash Detroit Fluids SpecificationIn 2005 Detroittrade issued its first listing of approved oils based on Detroit Fluids Specification These specificationsrepresented an enhanced performance level beyond the industry-based service category system Oils meeting thesespecifications undergo additional review of performance claims include added performance requirements for Detroittradeinternational family of engines compared to API certified engine oils The added confidence in performance of these oilsallows Detroittrade customers to maximize oil drain intervals and engine service life beyond those permitted with industry-based engine oils Refer to section Oil Drain Intervals

Three Detroittrade approved oil specifications exist for different applications The list of oils meeting these specifications maybe viewed as follows

3 Lubricating Oil Additional Information

31 Lubricating Oil Additional InformationSelection of lubricating oil that meets the proper criteria is necessary for proper engine lubrication Additional informationwhich may be used to select an appropriate engine oil are provided in the following sections

32 SAE Viscosity Grade SelectionViscosity is a measure of an oilrsquos resistance to flow at various temperatures The SAE Viscosity Grade system is defined inSAE Standard J300 that designates a viscosity range with a grade number Lubricants with two grade numbers separated by aldquoWrdquo such as 15W-40 are classified as multigrade while those with a single number are monograde The higher the numberthe higher the viscosity

The viscosity requirements associated with each SAE viscosity grade are listed in Table SAE Viscosity Grades for EngineOils (SAE J300) This information is important in selecting the best viscosity grade for the anticipated ambient temperaturerange at which the engine will start and operate Use it only as a guideline since actual operating conditions of the enginemay determine the lowest practical temperature at which an engine will start and operate Note that grades designated with aldquoWrdquo are required to meet both low temperature and high temperature viscosity requirements

Figure 2 Operating Ranges for Viscosity Grades

33 High TemperatureHigh Shear ViscosityHigh TemperatureHigh Shear (HTHS) viscosity is measured at 150degC (302degF) under shear stress conditions similar to verythin film lubrication areas such as those found at the piston ring-to-cylinder wall interface The value obtained from this testprovides an indication of temporary shear stability of the viscosity index improver used in multigrade oils An HTHSviscosity below 37 cP indicates that the oil will not perform as a 40 grade oil at engine operating conditions

34 Sulfated Ash and Total Base NumberSulfated ash is a lubricant property measured by a laboratory test (ASTM D 874) to determine the potential for formation ofmetallic ash The ash residue is related to the oil additive composition and is significant in predicting lubricants which maycause valve distress cylinder kit scuffing or exhaust catalyst plugging under certain operating conditions API FA-4 CK-4and CJ-4 approved oil cannot exceed 10 wt of sulfated ash and CI-4 PLUS approved oil cannot exceed 20 wt TotalBase Number (TBN) which measures an oil alkalinity and ability to neutralize acid using a laboratory test (ASTM D 2896 orD 4739) is related to sulfated ash level and plays an important role in controlling deposits in four-cycle diesel enginesTypically a quality engine oil will have a fresh TBN over 80 mg KOHg per ASTM D 2896

35 Universal OilsUniversal oils are designed for use with both gasoline and diesel engines and provide an operational convenience in mixedengine fleets These products are identified with combination API category designations such as CK-4SN Although suchproducts can be used in Detroittrade engines (provided they satisfy all Detroittrade requirements) their use is not as desirable aslubricants formulated specifically for diesel engines and having API FA-4 CK-4 and CJ-4 designations When selecting auniversal oil select one with the ldquoCrdquo category first as this should be primarily intended for diesel service

36 Synthetic OilsSynthetic oils may be used in Detroittrade engines provided they are approved by a Detroit Fluids Specification The use ofsynthetic oils does not necessarily ensure the extension of the recommended oil drain intervals beyond the limits

39 The Use Of Supplemental AdditivesLubricants meeting Detroit Fluids Specification outlined in this publication contain a carefully balanced additive treatmentThe use of supplemental additives such as break-in oils top oils graphitizers and friction-reducing compounds in these fullyformulated lubricants are not necessary and can upset the oil formulation causing a deterioration in performance Thesesupplemental additives may be marketed as either oil treatments or engine treatments and should not be used Their use willnot void your Detroittrade product warranty however engine damage resulting from the use of such materials is not coveredThe use of such additives is at the customers risk Detroittrade will not provide statements relative to their use beyond thispublication

310 Purchasing Bulk Engine OilTo ensure continuing quality of engine oil purchased in bulk quantities procurement specifications should include arequirement that the supplier follow API Recommended Practice 1525 for handling bulk engine oils This voluntary practicecontains guidelines for quality control tracking within the suppliers process In addition customers are advised to obtain acontrol sample to be used as a reference for acceptance of bulk shipments

311 Recycled Re-Refined OilsDetroittrade favors the recycling of waste oil and permits the use of rerefined oils in all engine product lines provided thererefined oil meets the SAE Viscosity and API specifications previously mentioned Several processes are used to rerefine oilThe only true rerefining process is one which treats the used oil as a crude oil subjecting it to the same refinery processes

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 15DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

2 Lubricating Oil Requirements

21 Lubricating Oil RequirementsIn general lubricating oil selection for Detroittrade engines is based on viscosity grade and service category as defined byindustry standards and is displayed in the API symbol shown in the following section Oils identified by this system andlicensed by API provide adequate service in most applications In 2002 Detroittrade initiated additional criteria to theserequirements through the use of Detroit Fluids Specifications which resulted in a listing of preferred oils for Detroittradeengines

NOTE For 2-cycle and all Off-Highway engine lubricating oil fuel and coolant requirements refer to MTUTechnical Publication Fluids and Lubricants Specification Bulletin A00106135E (or most recent) This bulletin isavailable from authorized MTU distributors

22 Identification of API Service ClassificationBelow are examples of American Petroleum Institute (API) certification donuts for the most current diesel engine oilcategories

Figure 1 Examples of API Symbols

23 API FA-4 Versus API CK-4 and API CJ-4 Versus API CI-4 PlusAPI Service Category FA-4 oils are designed primarily for use with EPA10 GHG14 and GHG17 compliant enginesequipped with cooled EGR and exhaust aftertreatment devices operating on Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel (below 15ppm) These oils are designed with reduced ash and phosphorous content to minimize degradation of aftertreatment deviceswhile providing complete wear deposit and soot control

API Service Category CK-4 and CJ-4 oils are designed primarily for use with EPA07 EPA10 GHG14 and GHG17compliant engines equipped with cooled EGR and exhaust aftertreatment devices operating on Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel(ULSD) fuel (below 15 ppm) These oils are designed with reduced ash and phosphorous content to minimize degradation ofaftertreatment devices while providing complete wear deposit and soot control API CK-4 and CJ-4 oils may also be used inall diesel engines operating with ULSD fuel

API Service category CI-4 PLUS oils were designed primarily for use with 2002 EPA emission compliant engines equippedwith cooled EGR operating on Low Sulfur Diesel (LSD) fuel (below 500 ppm) These oils are formulated with higher ashand phosphorus content and were not intended for use in engines with aftertreatment devices Their use in EPA07 enginesmay cause premature aftertreatment filter plugging

There is a subtle but important difference between oils meeting the API CI-4 and the API CI-4 PLUS service categoryShortly after their inception the API CI-4 category requirements were modified for improved soot handling and shearstability An engine oil formulation that meets the modified requirements would qualify for API CI-4 PLUS Due to their

3 Lubricating Oil Additional Information

31 Lubricating Oil Additional InformationSelection of lubricating oil that meets the proper criteria is necessary for proper engine lubrication Additional informationwhich may be used to select an appropriate engine oil are provided in the following sections

32 SAE Viscosity Grade SelectionViscosity is a measure of an oilrsquos resistance to flow at various temperatures The SAE Viscosity Grade system is defined inSAE Standard J300 that designates a viscosity range with a grade number Lubricants with two grade numbers separated by aldquoWrdquo such as 15W-40 are classified as multigrade while those with a single number are monograde The higher the numberthe higher the viscosity

The viscosity requirements associated with each SAE viscosity grade are listed in Table SAE Viscosity Grades for EngineOils (SAE J300) This information is important in selecting the best viscosity grade for the anticipated ambient temperaturerange at which the engine will start and operate Use it only as a guideline since actual operating conditions of the enginemay determine the lowest practical temperature at which an engine will start and operate Note that grades designated with aldquoWrdquo are required to meet both low temperature and high temperature viscosity requirements

Figure 2 Operating Ranges for Viscosity Grades

33 High TemperatureHigh Shear ViscosityHigh TemperatureHigh Shear (HTHS) viscosity is measured at 150degC (302degF) under shear stress conditions similar to verythin film lubrication areas such as those found at the piston ring-to-cylinder wall interface The value obtained from this testprovides an indication of temporary shear stability of the viscosity index improver used in multigrade oils An HTHSviscosity below 37 cP indicates that the oil will not perform as a 40 grade oil at engine operating conditions

34 Sulfated Ash and Total Base NumberSulfated ash is a lubricant property measured by a laboratory test (ASTM D 874) to determine the potential for formation ofmetallic ash The ash residue is related to the oil additive composition and is significant in predicting lubricants which maycause valve distress cylinder kit scuffing or exhaust catalyst plugging under certain operating conditions API FA-4 CK-4and CJ-4 approved oil cannot exceed 10 wt of sulfated ash and CI-4 PLUS approved oil cannot exceed 20 wt TotalBase Number (TBN) which measures an oil alkalinity and ability to neutralize acid using a laboratory test (ASTM D 2896 orD 4739) is related to sulfated ash level and plays an important role in controlling deposits in four-cycle diesel enginesTypically a quality engine oil will have a fresh TBN over 80 mg KOHg per ASTM D 2896

35 Universal OilsUniversal oils are designed for use with both gasoline and diesel engines and provide an operational convenience in mixedengine fleets These products are identified with combination API category designations such as CK-4SN Although suchproducts can be used in Detroittrade engines (provided they satisfy all Detroittrade requirements) their use is not as desirable aslubricants formulated specifically for diesel engines and having API FA-4 CK-4 and CJ-4 designations When selecting auniversal oil select one with the ldquoCrdquo category first as this should be primarily intended for diesel service

36 Synthetic OilsSynthetic oils may be used in Detroittrade engines provided they are approved by a Detroit Fluids Specification The use ofsynthetic oils does not necessarily ensure the extension of the recommended oil drain intervals beyond the limits

39 The Use Of Supplemental AdditivesLubricants meeting Detroit Fluids Specification outlined in this publication contain a carefully balanced additive treatmentThe use of supplemental additives such as break-in oils top oils graphitizers and friction-reducing compounds in these fullyformulated lubricants are not necessary and can upset the oil formulation causing a deterioration in performance Thesesupplemental additives may be marketed as either oil treatments or engine treatments and should not be used Their use willnot void your Detroittrade product warranty however engine damage resulting from the use of such materials is not coveredThe use of such additives is at the customers risk Detroittrade will not provide statements relative to their use beyond thispublication

310 Purchasing Bulk Engine OilTo ensure continuing quality of engine oil purchased in bulk quantities procurement specifications should include arequirement that the supplier follow API Recommended Practice 1525 for handling bulk engine oils This voluntary practicecontains guidelines for quality control tracking within the suppliers process In addition customers are advised to obtain acontrol sample to be used as a reference for acceptance of bulk shipments

311 Recycled Re-Refined OilsDetroittrade favors the recycling of waste oil and permits the use of rerefined oils in all engine product lines provided thererefined oil meets the SAE Viscosity and API specifications previously mentioned Several processes are used to rerefine oilThe only true rerefining process is one which treats the used oil as a crude oil subjecting it to the same refinery processes

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 15DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

46 Used Lubricating Oil AnalysisDetroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis or used-oil analysis program is recommended for all engines Oil analysis consists oflaboratory tests to indicate conditions of the engine andor the lubricant The ldquoWarning Limitsrdquo are listed in Table ldquoSingleSample Used-Oil Analysis Warning Limitsrdquo Oil analysis cannot completely assess the lubricating oil and should not be usedto maximize oil drain intervals Change oil immediately if contamination exceeds warning limits listed below

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

2 Lubricating Oil Requirements

21 Lubricating Oil RequirementsIn general lubricating oil selection for Detroittrade engines is based on viscosity grade and service category as defined byindustry standards and is displayed in the API symbol shown in the following section Oils identified by this system andlicensed by API provide adequate service in most applications In 2002 Detroittrade initiated additional criteria to theserequirements through the use of Detroit Fluids Specifications which resulted in a listing of preferred oils for Detroittradeengines

NOTE For 2-cycle and all Off-Highway engine lubricating oil fuel and coolant requirements refer to MTUTechnical Publication Fluids and Lubricants Specification Bulletin A00106135E (or most recent) This bulletin isavailable from authorized MTU distributors

22 Identification of API Service ClassificationBelow are examples of American Petroleum Institute (API) certification donuts for the most current diesel engine oilcategories

Figure 1 Examples of API Symbols

23 API FA-4 Versus API CK-4 and API CJ-4 Versus API CI-4 PlusAPI Service Category FA-4 oils are designed primarily for use with EPA10 GHG14 and GHG17 compliant enginesequipped with cooled EGR and exhaust aftertreatment devices operating on Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel (below 15ppm) These oils are designed with reduced ash and phosphorous content to minimize degradation of aftertreatment deviceswhile providing complete wear deposit and soot control

API Service Category CK-4 and CJ-4 oils are designed primarily for use with EPA07 EPA10 GHG14 and GHG17compliant engines equipped with cooled EGR and exhaust aftertreatment devices operating on Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel(ULSD) fuel (below 15 ppm) These oils are designed with reduced ash and phosphorous content to minimize degradation ofaftertreatment devices while providing complete wear deposit and soot control API CK-4 and CJ-4 oils may also be used inall diesel engines operating with ULSD fuel

API Service category CI-4 PLUS oils were designed primarily for use with 2002 EPA emission compliant engines equippedwith cooled EGR operating on Low Sulfur Diesel (LSD) fuel (below 500 ppm) These oils are formulated with higher ashand phosphorus content and were not intended for use in engines with aftertreatment devices Their use in EPA07 enginesmay cause premature aftertreatment filter plugging

There is a subtle but important difference between oils meeting the API CI-4 and the API CI-4 PLUS service categoryShortly after their inception the API CI-4 category requirements were modified for improved soot handling and shearstability An engine oil formulation that meets the modified requirements would qualify for API CI-4 PLUS Due to their

superior performance in EGR-equipped engines without aftertreatment devices Detroittrade recommends only CI-4 PLUS oilsDetroittrade does not recommend the use of oils that only meet the CI-4 service category

24 Approved Oils mdash Detroit Fluids SpecificationIn 2005 Detroittrade issued its first listing of approved oils based on Detroit Fluids Specification These specificationsrepresented an enhanced performance level beyond the industry-based service category system Oils meeting thesespecifications undergo additional review of performance claims include added performance requirements for Detroittradeinternational family of engines compared to API certified engine oils The added confidence in performance of these oilsallows Detroittrade customers to maximize oil drain intervals and engine service life beyond those permitted with industry-based engine oils Refer to section Oil Drain Intervals

Three Detroittrade approved oil specifications exist for different applications The list of oils meeting these specifications maybe viewed as follows

3 Lubricating Oil Additional Information

31 Lubricating Oil Additional InformationSelection of lubricating oil that meets the proper criteria is necessary for proper engine lubrication Additional informationwhich may be used to select an appropriate engine oil are provided in the following sections

32 SAE Viscosity Grade SelectionViscosity is a measure of an oilrsquos resistance to flow at various temperatures The SAE Viscosity Grade system is defined inSAE Standard J300 that designates a viscosity range with a grade number Lubricants with two grade numbers separated by aldquoWrdquo such as 15W-40 are classified as multigrade while those with a single number are monograde The higher the numberthe higher the viscosity

The viscosity requirements associated with each SAE viscosity grade are listed in Table SAE Viscosity Grades for EngineOils (SAE J300) This information is important in selecting the best viscosity grade for the anticipated ambient temperaturerange at which the engine will start and operate Use it only as a guideline since actual operating conditions of the enginemay determine the lowest practical temperature at which an engine will start and operate Note that grades designated with aldquoWrdquo are required to meet both low temperature and high temperature viscosity requirements

Figure 2 Operating Ranges for Viscosity Grades

33 High TemperatureHigh Shear ViscosityHigh TemperatureHigh Shear (HTHS) viscosity is measured at 150degC (302degF) under shear stress conditions similar to verythin film lubrication areas such as those found at the piston ring-to-cylinder wall interface The value obtained from this testprovides an indication of temporary shear stability of the viscosity index improver used in multigrade oils An HTHSviscosity below 37 cP indicates that the oil will not perform as a 40 grade oil at engine operating conditions

34 Sulfated Ash and Total Base NumberSulfated ash is a lubricant property measured by a laboratory test (ASTM D 874) to determine the potential for formation ofmetallic ash The ash residue is related to the oil additive composition and is significant in predicting lubricants which maycause valve distress cylinder kit scuffing or exhaust catalyst plugging under certain operating conditions API FA-4 CK-4and CJ-4 approved oil cannot exceed 10 wt of sulfated ash and CI-4 PLUS approved oil cannot exceed 20 wt TotalBase Number (TBN) which measures an oil alkalinity and ability to neutralize acid using a laboratory test (ASTM D 2896 orD 4739) is related to sulfated ash level and plays an important role in controlling deposits in four-cycle diesel enginesTypically a quality engine oil will have a fresh TBN over 80 mg KOHg per ASTM D 2896

35 Universal OilsUniversal oils are designed for use with both gasoline and diesel engines and provide an operational convenience in mixedengine fleets These products are identified with combination API category designations such as CK-4SN Although suchproducts can be used in Detroittrade engines (provided they satisfy all Detroittrade requirements) their use is not as desirable aslubricants formulated specifically for diesel engines and having API FA-4 CK-4 and CJ-4 designations When selecting auniversal oil select one with the ldquoCrdquo category first as this should be primarily intended for diesel service

36 Synthetic OilsSynthetic oils may be used in Detroittrade engines provided they are approved by a Detroit Fluids Specification The use ofsynthetic oils does not necessarily ensure the extension of the recommended oil drain intervals beyond the limits

39 The Use Of Supplemental AdditivesLubricants meeting Detroit Fluids Specification outlined in this publication contain a carefully balanced additive treatmentThe use of supplemental additives such as break-in oils top oils graphitizers and friction-reducing compounds in these fullyformulated lubricants are not necessary and can upset the oil formulation causing a deterioration in performance Thesesupplemental additives may be marketed as either oil treatments or engine treatments and should not be used Their use willnot void your Detroittrade product warranty however engine damage resulting from the use of such materials is not coveredThe use of such additives is at the customers risk Detroittrade will not provide statements relative to their use beyond thispublication

310 Purchasing Bulk Engine OilTo ensure continuing quality of engine oil purchased in bulk quantities procurement specifications should include arequirement that the supplier follow API Recommended Practice 1525 for handling bulk engine oils This voluntary practicecontains guidelines for quality control tracking within the suppliers process In addition customers are advised to obtain acontrol sample to be used as a reference for acceptance of bulk shipments

311 Recycled Re-Refined OilsDetroittrade favors the recycling of waste oil and permits the use of rerefined oils in all engine product lines provided thererefined oil meets the SAE Viscosity and API specifications previously mentioned Several processes are used to rerefine oilThe only true rerefining process is one which treats the used oil as a crude oil subjecting it to the same refinery processes

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 15DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

46 Used Lubricating Oil AnalysisDetroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis or used-oil analysis program is recommended for all engines Oil analysis consists oflaboratory tests to indicate conditions of the engine andor the lubricant The ldquoWarning Limitsrdquo are listed in Table ldquoSingleSample Used-Oil Analysis Warning Limitsrdquo Oil analysis cannot completely assess the lubricating oil and should not be usedto maximize oil drain intervals Change oil immediately if contamination exceeds warning limits listed below

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 31DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

3 Lubricating Oil Additional Information

31 Lubricating Oil Additional InformationSelection of lubricating oil that meets the proper criteria is necessary for proper engine lubrication Additional informationwhich may be used to select an appropriate engine oil are provided in the following sections

32 SAE Viscosity Grade SelectionViscosity is a measure of an oilrsquos resistance to flow at various temperatures The SAE Viscosity Grade system is defined inSAE Standard J300 that designates a viscosity range with a grade number Lubricants with two grade numbers separated by aldquoWrdquo such as 15W-40 are classified as multigrade while those with a single number are monograde The higher the numberthe higher the viscosity

The viscosity requirements associated with each SAE viscosity grade are listed in Table SAE Viscosity Grades for EngineOils (SAE J300) This information is important in selecting the best viscosity grade for the anticipated ambient temperaturerange at which the engine will start and operate Use it only as a guideline since actual operating conditions of the enginemay determine the lowest practical temperature at which an engine will start and operate Note that grades designated with aldquoWrdquo are required to meet both low temperature and high temperature viscosity requirements

Figure 2 Operating Ranges for Viscosity Grades

33 High TemperatureHigh Shear ViscosityHigh TemperatureHigh Shear (HTHS) viscosity is measured at 150degC (302degF) under shear stress conditions similar to verythin film lubrication areas such as those found at the piston ring-to-cylinder wall interface The value obtained from this testprovides an indication of temporary shear stability of the viscosity index improver used in multigrade oils An HTHSviscosity below 37 cP indicates that the oil will not perform as a 40 grade oil at engine operating conditions

34 Sulfated Ash and Total Base NumberSulfated ash is a lubricant property measured by a laboratory test (ASTM D 874) to determine the potential for formation ofmetallic ash The ash residue is related to the oil additive composition and is significant in predicting lubricants which maycause valve distress cylinder kit scuffing or exhaust catalyst plugging under certain operating conditions API FA-4 CK-4and CJ-4 approved oil cannot exceed 10 wt of sulfated ash and CI-4 PLUS approved oil cannot exceed 20 wt TotalBase Number (TBN) which measures an oil alkalinity and ability to neutralize acid using a laboratory test (ASTM D 2896 orD 4739) is related to sulfated ash level and plays an important role in controlling deposits in four-cycle diesel enginesTypically a quality engine oil will have a fresh TBN over 80 mg KOHg per ASTM D 2896

35 Universal OilsUniversal oils are designed for use with both gasoline and diesel engines and provide an operational convenience in mixedengine fleets These products are identified with combination API category designations such as CK-4SN Although suchproducts can be used in Detroittrade engines (provided they satisfy all Detroittrade requirements) their use is not as desirable aslubricants formulated specifically for diesel engines and having API FA-4 CK-4 and CJ-4 designations When selecting auniversal oil select one with the ldquoCrdquo category first as this should be primarily intended for diesel service

36 Synthetic OilsSynthetic oils may be used in Detroittrade engines provided they are approved by a Detroit Fluids Specification The use ofsynthetic oils does not necessarily ensure the extension of the recommended oil drain intervals beyond the limits

39 The Use Of Supplemental AdditivesLubricants meeting Detroit Fluids Specification outlined in this publication contain a carefully balanced additive treatmentThe use of supplemental additives such as break-in oils top oils graphitizers and friction-reducing compounds in these fullyformulated lubricants are not necessary and can upset the oil formulation causing a deterioration in performance Thesesupplemental additives may be marketed as either oil treatments or engine treatments and should not be used Their use willnot void your Detroittrade product warranty however engine damage resulting from the use of such materials is not coveredThe use of such additives is at the customers risk Detroittrade will not provide statements relative to their use beyond thispublication

310 Purchasing Bulk Engine OilTo ensure continuing quality of engine oil purchased in bulk quantities procurement specifications should include arequirement that the supplier follow API Recommended Practice 1525 for handling bulk engine oils This voluntary practicecontains guidelines for quality control tracking within the suppliers process In addition customers are advised to obtain acontrol sample to be used as a reference for acceptance of bulk shipments

311 Recycled Re-Refined OilsDetroittrade favors the recycling of waste oil and permits the use of rerefined oils in all engine product lines provided thererefined oil meets the SAE Viscosity and API specifications previously mentioned Several processes are used to rerefine oilThe only true rerefining process is one which treats the used oil as a crude oil subjecting it to the same refinery processes

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 15DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

3 Lubricating Oil Additional Information

31 Lubricating Oil Additional InformationSelection of lubricating oil that meets the proper criteria is necessary for proper engine lubrication Additional informationwhich may be used to select an appropriate engine oil are provided in the following sections

32 SAE Viscosity Grade SelectionViscosity is a measure of an oilrsquos resistance to flow at various temperatures The SAE Viscosity Grade system is defined inSAE Standard J300 that designates a viscosity range with a grade number Lubricants with two grade numbers separated by aldquoWrdquo such as 15W-40 are classified as multigrade while those with a single number are monograde The higher the numberthe higher the viscosity

The viscosity requirements associated with each SAE viscosity grade are listed in Table SAE Viscosity Grades for EngineOils (SAE J300) This information is important in selecting the best viscosity grade for the anticipated ambient temperaturerange at which the engine will start and operate Use it only as a guideline since actual operating conditions of the enginemay determine the lowest practical temperature at which an engine will start and operate Note that grades designated with aldquoWrdquo are required to meet both low temperature and high temperature viscosity requirements

Figure 2 Operating Ranges for Viscosity Grades

33 High TemperatureHigh Shear ViscosityHigh TemperatureHigh Shear (HTHS) viscosity is measured at 150degC (302degF) under shear stress conditions similar to verythin film lubrication areas such as those found at the piston ring-to-cylinder wall interface The value obtained from this testprovides an indication of temporary shear stability of the viscosity index improver used in multigrade oils An HTHSviscosity below 37 cP indicates that the oil will not perform as a 40 grade oil at engine operating conditions

34 Sulfated Ash and Total Base NumberSulfated ash is a lubricant property measured by a laboratory test (ASTM D 874) to determine the potential for formation ofmetallic ash The ash residue is related to the oil additive composition and is significant in predicting lubricants which maycause valve distress cylinder kit scuffing or exhaust catalyst plugging under certain operating conditions API FA-4 CK-4and CJ-4 approved oil cannot exceed 10 wt of sulfated ash and CI-4 PLUS approved oil cannot exceed 20 wt TotalBase Number (TBN) which measures an oil alkalinity and ability to neutralize acid using a laboratory test (ASTM D 2896 orD 4739) is related to sulfated ash level and plays an important role in controlling deposits in four-cycle diesel enginesTypically a quality engine oil will have a fresh TBN over 80 mg KOHg per ASTM D 2896

35 Universal OilsUniversal oils are designed for use with both gasoline and diesel engines and provide an operational convenience in mixedengine fleets These products are identified with combination API category designations such as CK-4SN Although suchproducts can be used in Detroittrade engines (provided they satisfy all Detroittrade requirements) their use is not as desirable aslubricants formulated specifically for diesel engines and having API FA-4 CK-4 and CJ-4 designations When selecting auniversal oil select one with the ldquoCrdquo category first as this should be primarily intended for diesel service

36 Synthetic OilsSynthetic oils may be used in Detroittrade engines provided they are approved by a Detroit Fluids Specification The use ofsynthetic oils does not necessarily ensure the extension of the recommended oil drain intervals beyond the limits

39 The Use Of Supplemental AdditivesLubricants meeting Detroit Fluids Specification outlined in this publication contain a carefully balanced additive treatmentThe use of supplemental additives such as break-in oils top oils graphitizers and friction-reducing compounds in these fullyformulated lubricants are not necessary and can upset the oil formulation causing a deterioration in performance Thesesupplemental additives may be marketed as either oil treatments or engine treatments and should not be used Their use willnot void your Detroittrade product warranty however engine damage resulting from the use of such materials is not coveredThe use of such additives is at the customers risk Detroittrade will not provide statements relative to their use beyond thispublication

310 Purchasing Bulk Engine OilTo ensure continuing quality of engine oil purchased in bulk quantities procurement specifications should include arequirement that the supplier follow API Recommended Practice 1525 for handling bulk engine oils This voluntary practicecontains guidelines for quality control tracking within the suppliers process In addition customers are advised to obtain acontrol sample to be used as a reference for acceptance of bulk shipments

311 Recycled Re-Refined OilsDetroittrade favors the recycling of waste oil and permits the use of rerefined oils in all engine product lines provided thererefined oil meets the SAE Viscosity and API specifications previously mentioned Several processes are used to rerefine oilThe only true rerefining process is one which treats the used oil as a crude oil subjecting it to the same refinery processes

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

46 Used Lubricating Oil AnalysisDetroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis or used-oil analysis program is recommended for all engines Oil analysis consists oflaboratory tests to indicate conditions of the engine andor the lubricant The ldquoWarning Limitsrdquo are listed in Table ldquoSingleSample Used-Oil Analysis Warning Limitsrdquo Oil analysis cannot completely assess the lubricating oil and should not be usedto maximize oil drain intervals Change oil immediately if contamination exceeds warning limits listed below

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

3 Lubricating Oil Additional Information

31 Lubricating Oil Additional InformationSelection of lubricating oil that meets the proper criteria is necessary for proper engine lubrication Additional informationwhich may be used to select an appropriate engine oil are provided in the following sections

32 SAE Viscosity Grade SelectionViscosity is a measure of an oilrsquos resistance to flow at various temperatures The SAE Viscosity Grade system is defined inSAE Standard J300 that designates a viscosity range with a grade number Lubricants with two grade numbers separated by aldquoWrdquo such as 15W-40 are classified as multigrade while those with a single number are monograde The higher the numberthe higher the viscosity

The viscosity requirements associated with each SAE viscosity grade are listed in Table SAE Viscosity Grades for EngineOils (SAE J300) This information is important in selecting the best viscosity grade for the anticipated ambient temperaturerange at which the engine will start and operate Use it only as a guideline since actual operating conditions of the enginemay determine the lowest practical temperature at which an engine will start and operate Note that grades designated with aldquoWrdquo are required to meet both low temperature and high temperature viscosity requirements

Figure 2 Operating Ranges for Viscosity Grades

33 High TemperatureHigh Shear ViscosityHigh TemperatureHigh Shear (HTHS) viscosity is measured at 150degC (302degF) under shear stress conditions similar to verythin film lubrication areas such as those found at the piston ring-to-cylinder wall interface The value obtained from this testprovides an indication of temporary shear stability of the viscosity index improver used in multigrade oils An HTHSviscosity below 37 cP indicates that the oil will not perform as a 40 grade oil at engine operating conditions

34 Sulfated Ash and Total Base NumberSulfated ash is a lubricant property measured by a laboratory test (ASTM D 874) to determine the potential for formation ofmetallic ash The ash residue is related to the oil additive composition and is significant in predicting lubricants which maycause valve distress cylinder kit scuffing or exhaust catalyst plugging under certain operating conditions API FA-4 CK-4and CJ-4 approved oil cannot exceed 10 wt of sulfated ash and CI-4 PLUS approved oil cannot exceed 20 wt TotalBase Number (TBN) which measures an oil alkalinity and ability to neutralize acid using a laboratory test (ASTM D 2896 orD 4739) is related to sulfated ash level and plays an important role in controlling deposits in four-cycle diesel enginesTypically a quality engine oil will have a fresh TBN over 80 mg KOHg per ASTM D 2896

35 Universal OilsUniversal oils are designed for use with both gasoline and diesel engines and provide an operational convenience in mixedengine fleets These products are identified with combination API category designations such as CK-4SN Although suchproducts can be used in Detroittrade engines (provided they satisfy all Detroittrade requirements) their use is not as desirable aslubricants formulated specifically for diesel engines and having API FA-4 CK-4 and CJ-4 designations When selecting auniversal oil select one with the ldquoCrdquo category first as this should be primarily intended for diesel service

36 Synthetic OilsSynthetic oils may be used in Detroittrade engines provided they are approved by a Detroit Fluids Specification The use ofsynthetic oils does not necessarily ensure the extension of the recommended oil drain intervals beyond the limits

37 Lubricant Selection in Regions Not Using ULSDEngine oils specified in Table Approved Detroit Fluids Specification for the appropriate engine emissions certification andfuel sulfur level are preferred for all Detroittrade engines operating in regions not using Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) Ifthese lubricants are not available lubricants meeting European ACEA E4 or E7 may be used at the specified oil drainintervals Oils of lower performance may only be used at a 50 oil drain interval reduction Refer to section Oil DrainIntervals

39 The Use Of Supplemental AdditivesLubricants meeting Detroit Fluids Specification outlined in this publication contain a carefully balanced additive treatmentThe use of supplemental additives such as break-in oils top oils graphitizers and friction-reducing compounds in these fullyformulated lubricants are not necessary and can upset the oil formulation causing a deterioration in performance Thesesupplemental additives may be marketed as either oil treatments or engine treatments and should not be used Their use willnot void your Detroittrade product warranty however engine damage resulting from the use of such materials is not coveredThe use of such additives is at the customers risk Detroittrade will not provide statements relative to their use beyond thispublication

310 Purchasing Bulk Engine OilTo ensure continuing quality of engine oil purchased in bulk quantities procurement specifications should include arequirement that the supplier follow API Recommended Practice 1525 for handling bulk engine oils This voluntary practicecontains guidelines for quality control tracking within the suppliers process In addition customers are advised to obtain acontrol sample to be used as a reference for acceptance of bulk shipments

311 Recycled Re-Refined OilsDetroittrade favors the recycling of waste oil and permits the use of rerefined oils in all engine product lines provided thererefined oil meets the SAE Viscosity and API specifications previously mentioned Several processes are used to rerefine oilThe only true rerefining process is one which treats the used oil as a crude oil subjecting it to the same refinery processes

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 15DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

46 Used Lubricating Oil AnalysisDetroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis or used-oil analysis program is recommended for all engines Oil analysis consists oflaboratory tests to indicate conditions of the engine andor the lubricant The ldquoWarning Limitsrdquo are listed in Table ldquoSingleSample Used-Oil Analysis Warning Limitsrdquo Oil analysis cannot completely assess the lubricating oil and should not be usedto maximize oil drain intervals Change oil immediately if contamination exceeds warning limits listed below

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

Figure 2 Operating Ranges for Viscosity Grades

33 High TemperatureHigh Shear ViscosityHigh TemperatureHigh Shear (HTHS) viscosity is measured at 150degC (302degF) under shear stress conditions similar to verythin film lubrication areas such as those found at the piston ring-to-cylinder wall interface The value obtained from this testprovides an indication of temporary shear stability of the viscosity index improver used in multigrade oils An HTHSviscosity below 37 cP indicates that the oil will not perform as a 40 grade oil at engine operating conditions

34 Sulfated Ash and Total Base NumberSulfated ash is a lubricant property measured by a laboratory test (ASTM D 874) to determine the potential for formation ofmetallic ash The ash residue is related to the oil additive composition and is significant in predicting lubricants which maycause valve distress cylinder kit scuffing or exhaust catalyst plugging under certain operating conditions API FA-4 CK-4and CJ-4 approved oil cannot exceed 10 wt of sulfated ash and CI-4 PLUS approved oil cannot exceed 20 wt TotalBase Number (TBN) which measures an oil alkalinity and ability to neutralize acid using a laboratory test (ASTM D 2896 orD 4739) is related to sulfated ash level and plays an important role in controlling deposits in four-cycle diesel enginesTypically a quality engine oil will have a fresh TBN over 80 mg KOHg per ASTM D 2896

35 Universal OilsUniversal oils are designed for use with both gasoline and diesel engines and provide an operational convenience in mixedengine fleets These products are identified with combination API category designations such as CK-4SN Although suchproducts can be used in Detroittrade engines (provided they satisfy all Detroittrade requirements) their use is not as desirable aslubricants formulated specifically for diesel engines and having API FA-4 CK-4 and CJ-4 designations When selecting auniversal oil select one with the ldquoCrdquo category first as this should be primarily intended for diesel service

36 Synthetic OilsSynthetic oils may be used in Detroittrade engines provided they are approved by a Detroit Fluids Specification The use ofsynthetic oils does not necessarily ensure the extension of the recommended oil drain intervals beyond the limits

39 The Use Of Supplemental AdditivesLubricants meeting Detroit Fluids Specification outlined in this publication contain a carefully balanced additive treatmentThe use of supplemental additives such as break-in oils top oils graphitizers and friction-reducing compounds in these fullyformulated lubricants are not necessary and can upset the oil formulation causing a deterioration in performance Thesesupplemental additives may be marketed as either oil treatments or engine treatments and should not be used Their use willnot void your Detroittrade product warranty however engine damage resulting from the use of such materials is not coveredThe use of such additives is at the customers risk Detroittrade will not provide statements relative to their use beyond thispublication

310 Purchasing Bulk Engine OilTo ensure continuing quality of engine oil purchased in bulk quantities procurement specifications should include arequirement that the supplier follow API Recommended Practice 1525 for handling bulk engine oils This voluntary practicecontains guidelines for quality control tracking within the suppliers process In addition customers are advised to obtain acontrol sample to be used as a reference for acceptance of bulk shipments

311 Recycled Re-Refined OilsDetroittrade favors the recycling of waste oil and permits the use of rerefined oils in all engine product lines provided thererefined oil meets the SAE Viscosity and API specifications previously mentioned Several processes are used to rerefine oilThe only true rerefining process is one which treats the used oil as a crude oil subjecting it to the same refinery processes

4 DD Platform Oil Drain Intervals

41 Oil Drain IntervalsDuring use engine lubricating oil undergoes deterioration from combustion by-products and contamination by the engine Inaddition certain components in a lubricant additive package are designed to deplete with use For these reasons regardless ofthe oil formulation regular oil drain intervals are required

NOTE The use of oil sampling and analysis to validate all drain intervals is highly recommended To confirm oildrain intervals use Detroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis with Total Base Number Part Number 23520989

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 15DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

46 Used Lubricating Oil AnalysisDetroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis or used-oil analysis program is recommended for all engines Oil analysis consists oflaboratory tests to indicate conditions of the engine andor the lubricant The ldquoWarning Limitsrdquo are listed in Table ldquoSingleSample Used-Oil Analysis Warning Limitsrdquo Oil analysis cannot completely assess the lubricating oil and should not be usedto maximize oil drain intervals Change oil immediately if contamination exceeds warning limits listed below

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

39 The Use Of Supplemental AdditivesLubricants meeting Detroit Fluids Specification outlined in this publication contain a carefully balanced additive treatmentThe use of supplemental additives such as break-in oils top oils graphitizers and friction-reducing compounds in these fullyformulated lubricants are not necessary and can upset the oil formulation causing a deterioration in performance Thesesupplemental additives may be marketed as either oil treatments or engine treatments and should not be used Their use willnot void your Detroittrade product warranty however engine damage resulting from the use of such materials is not coveredThe use of such additives is at the customers risk Detroittrade will not provide statements relative to their use beyond thispublication

310 Purchasing Bulk Engine OilTo ensure continuing quality of engine oil purchased in bulk quantities procurement specifications should include arequirement that the supplier follow API Recommended Practice 1525 for handling bulk engine oils This voluntary practicecontains guidelines for quality control tracking within the suppliers process In addition customers are advised to obtain acontrol sample to be used as a reference for acceptance of bulk shipments

311 Recycled Re-Refined OilsDetroittrade favors the recycling of waste oil and permits the use of rerefined oils in all engine product lines provided thererefined oil meets the SAE Viscosity and API specifications previously mentioned Several processes are used to rerefine oilThe only true rerefining process is one which treats the used oil as a crude oil subjecting it to the same refinery processes

4 DD Platform Oil Drain Intervals

41 Oil Drain IntervalsDuring use engine lubricating oil undergoes deterioration from combustion by-products and contamination by the engine Inaddition certain components in a lubricant additive package are designed to deplete with use For these reasons regardless ofthe oil formulation regular oil drain intervals are required

NOTE The use of oil sampling and analysis to validate all drain intervals is highly recommended To confirm oildrain intervals use Detroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis with Total Base Number Part Number 23520989

42 Oil Drain Intervals for GHG17 Heavy Duty On-Highway EnginesThe oil drain intervals for GHG17 DD131516 Heavy Duty On-Highway engines listed in the table below are based onengines operating with Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel (below 15 ppm) meeting the properties listed in ldquoDiesel FuelPropertiesrdquo table with a Detroit Fluids Specification DFS 93K223 DFS 93K222 or DFS 93K218 approved oil API FA-4CK-4 or CJ-4 certified oil that is not Detroit Fluids Specification approved may be used at reduced drain intervals Theseintervals should be considered as maximum and should not be exceeded

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 15DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

46 Used Lubricating Oil AnalysisDetroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis or used-oil analysis program is recommended for all engines Oil analysis consists oflaboratory tests to indicate conditions of the engine andor the lubricant The ldquoWarning Limitsrdquo are listed in Table ldquoSingleSample Used-Oil Analysis Warning Limitsrdquo Oil analysis cannot completely assess the lubricating oil and should not be usedto maximize oil drain intervals Change oil immediately if contamination exceeds warning limits listed below

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 15DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

46 Used Lubricating Oil AnalysisDetroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis or used-oil analysis program is recommended for all engines Oil analysis consists oflaboratory tests to indicate conditions of the engine andor the lubricant The ldquoWarning Limitsrdquo are listed in Table ldquoSingleSample Used-Oil Analysis Warning Limitsrdquo Oil analysis cannot completely assess the lubricating oil and should not be usedto maximize oil drain intervals Change oil immediately if contamination exceeds warning limits listed below

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

4 DD Platform Oil Drain Intervals

41 Oil Drain IntervalsDuring use engine lubricating oil undergoes deterioration from combustion by-products and contamination by the engine Inaddition certain components in a lubricant additive package are designed to deplete with use For these reasons regardless ofthe oil formulation regular oil drain intervals are required

NOTE The use of oil sampling and analysis to validate all drain intervals is highly recommended To confirm oildrain intervals use Detroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis with Total Base Number Part Number 23520989

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

46 Used Lubricating Oil AnalysisDetroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis or used-oil analysis program is recommended for all engines Oil analysis consists oflaboratory tests to indicate conditions of the engine andor the lubricant The ldquoWarning Limitsrdquo are listed in Table ldquoSingleSample Used-Oil Analysis Warning Limitsrdquo Oil analysis cannot completely assess the lubricating oil and should not be usedto maximize oil drain intervals Change oil immediately if contamination exceeds warning limits listed below

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 15DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

46 Used Lubricating Oil AnalysisDetroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis or used-oil analysis program is recommended for all engines Oil analysis consists oflaboratory tests to indicate conditions of the engine andor the lubricant The ldquoWarning Limitsrdquo are listed in Table ldquoSingleSample Used-Oil Analysis Warning Limitsrdquo Oil analysis cannot completely assess the lubricating oil and should not be usedto maximize oil drain intervals Change oil immediately if contamination exceeds warning limits listed below

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 15DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

46 Used Lubricating Oil AnalysisDetroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis or used-oil analysis program is recommended for all engines Oil analysis consists oflaboratory tests to indicate conditions of the engine andor the lubricant The ldquoWarning Limitsrdquo are listed in Table ldquoSingleSample Used-Oil Analysis Warning Limitsrdquo Oil analysis cannot completely assess the lubricating oil and should not be usedto maximize oil drain intervals Change oil immediately if contamination exceeds warning limits listed below

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

30 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

45 Oil Drain Intervals Outside of Detroit RecommendationsChanging engine oil and filters at regular recommended intervals removes contaminants in the oil and filter and replenishesexpendable oil performance additives The extension of oil change intervals necessitates that an engine can tolerate increasedlevels of contaminants such as soot dirt oxidation wear metals fuel residues and water Extending oil filter change intervalsrequires that filters have sufficient increased capacity to continue collecting these contaminants at a sufficient rate to protectthe engine The engine oils must be formulated with additives capable of extended performance for wear oxidationdispersency detergency and filterability

While the extension of oil drain intervals can provide owners and operators of diesel-powered equipment a cost savings inmaterials (oil and filters) maintenance-related downtime and waste disposal there can be a significant reduction of enginelife to overhaul Currently marketed engine oils and filters are not designed to operate at extended service intervalsThese products meet performance requirements of standardized industry tests that are intended to predict actualengine operation under the conditions of standard service intervals

451 Guidance for Oil Drain IntervalsDetroittrade recognizes the desire by some fleets to maximize oil drain and filter change intervals beyond those listed in

bull DD Platform Oil Intervals (Section 4)bull Legacy Engine Oil Intervals (Section 5)

And while Detroittrade has no formal program to extend these intervals it will assist fleets in an advisory capacity to minimizeequipment risks Before a fleet embarks on an extended oil drain interval program Detroittrade recommends

bull The fleet reviews its current maintenance program to ensure oil changes are performed properly and on time A missed oildrain interval during an extended oil drain interval program will create a significant risk to the equipment

bull The fleet reviews the severity of the operation High idling intervals high load factors and chronic mechanical problemsare not conducive to extending the oil drain intervals

bull The fleet selects oil and filter suppliers who have the expertise and products to support the goals of such a program Theymay include a field test results demonstration formal program for extending oil and filter changes and a warrantycovering failure of their products in this service which results in a premature engine wear-out or failure

Fleets are encouraged to review any drain extension program with Detroittrade before initiating the program While Detroittradewill not provide approvals for these programs they will provide feedback on the risk assessment

Extending oil drain intervals will not void the Detroittrade product warranty In the event of engine failure or premature wear-out when running extended oil and filter change intervals Detroittrade will make a determination as to the extent if any thattheir workmanship and materials were responsible If Detroittrade determines that the failure or early wear-out was related toworkmanship or materials warranty coverage of the repairs will apply If the engine fails or wears out within the Detroittradewarranty period and Detroittrade determines it was the result of extending the oil drain intervals any claim for reimbursementof expenses under the terms of the engine warranty will be denied

46 Used Lubricating Oil AnalysisDetroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis or used-oil analysis program is recommended for all engines Oil analysis consists oflaboratory tests to indicate conditions of the engine andor the lubricant The ldquoWarning Limitsrdquo are listed in Table ldquoSingleSample Used-Oil Analysis Warning Limitsrdquo Oil analysis cannot completely assess the lubricating oil and should not be usedto maximize oil drain intervals Change oil immediately if contamination exceeds warning limits listed below

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

61 Diesel FuelThe quality of fuel used is a very important factor in obtaining satisfactory engine performance long engine life andacceptable exhaust emission levels For EPA07 EPA10 GHG14 and GHG17 exhaust compliant engines equipped withexhaust aftertreatment devices the use of Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel (15-ppm 00015 wt) is critical to thefunction and service life of these devices Use of this fuel in pre-2007 engines will provide cleaner combustion less soot andfewer fuel-related deposits ULSD fuel is recommended by Detroittrade for use in Series 60 Series 50 Series 55 MBE 900MBE 4000 DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines

62 Diesel Fuel Quality and SelectionAll DD Platform engines are designed to operate on Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel For optimal fuel systemperformance Detroit Diesel recommends Top Tier Diesel (see figure below)

For optimum engine operation and maximum service life diesel fuels meeting the property requirements listed in the tablebelow are recommended for use

NOTE When prolonged idling periods or cold weather conditions below 0degC (32degF) are encountered theuse of 1-D fuel is recommended However note that transit coach engines are emission certified on eitherNo 1 or No 2 Diesel fuel To maintain emission compliance only use the correct certified fuel

NOTE Please note that biodiesel fuel blended above B5 is not permissible in DD Platform or MBEengines

NOTE Raw Vegetable Oil and similar triglycerides are not permissible in all DETROITtrade or MBE enginesas a blendstock additive or contaminant

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

47 Oil Analysis During Engine Break-In Period

DD13 DD15 and DD16

Within the first three oil drains copper (Cu) levels may exceed the specified limits Under normal operating conditionscopper may leach from the oil cooler in new engines until the entire copper surface is passivated which normally occurswithin the first oil drain In DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines copper levels may reach as high as 500 ppm during the first oilchange with no adverse effects Copper levels should reduce with each oil change but may not remain below the specifiedlimits until after the third oil drain

DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16

Within the first three oil drains potassium (K) and aluminum (Al) levels may also exceed the specified limits Under normaloperating conditions brazing flux compound containing potassium and aluminum may leach from the Charge Air Cooler andbe introduced into the engine oil through the air intake system In the DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 enginespotassium levels may reach as high as 300 ppm during the first oil change with no adverse effects Potassium from brazingflux may be perceived as a coolant leak at these levels During the first three oil drains only sodium (Na) should be used asan indicator for potential coolant leaks Aluminum levels during the first three oil drains may reach as high as 150 ppmPotassium and aluminum levels should reduce with each oil change but may not remain below the specified limits until afterthe third oil drain

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

612 Fuel Quality Requirements 3bull Petroleum diesel fuel should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements before blending Diesel fuel

must meet the appropriate industry diesel fuel specification ASTM D975 CANCGSB-3517 or EN 590 at a minimumbull Biodiesel blendstock should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements before blending Biodiesel

blendstock must meet the appropriate industry biodiesel specification ASTM D6751 CANCGSB-3524 EN 14214 at aminimum

bull Biodiesel blends up to 5 (B5) should preferably meet the Detroit TM B5 fuel quality requirements 5 biodiesel blendsmust meet the appropriate industry B5 specification ASTM D975 CANGCSB- 3520 EN 590

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 31DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

5 Legacy Engine Oil Drain Intervals

51 Oil Drain IntervalsDuring use engine lubricating oil undergoes deterioration from combustion by-products and contamination by the engine Inaddition certain components in a lubricant additive package are designed to deplete with use For these reasons regardless ofthe oil formulation regular oil drain intervals are required

NOTE The use of oil sampling and analysis to validate all drain intervals is highly recommended To confirm oildrain intervals use Detroittrade Genuine Oil Analysis with Total Base Number Part Number 23520989

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

6 Diesel Fuel

61 Diesel FuelThe quality of fuel used is a very important factor in obtaining satisfactory engine performance long engine life andacceptable exhaust emission levels For EPA07 EPA10 GHG14 and GHG17 exhaust compliant engines equipped withexhaust aftertreatment devices the use of Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel (15-ppm 00015 wt) is critical to thefunction and service life of these devices Use of this fuel in pre-2007 engines will provide cleaner combustion less soot andfewer fuel-related deposits ULSD fuel is recommended by Detroittrade for use in Series 60 Series 50 Series 55 MBE 900MBE 4000 DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines

62 Diesel Fuel Quality and SelectionAll DD Platform engines are designed to operate on Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel For optimal fuel systemperformance Detroit Diesel recommends Top Tier Diesel (see figure below)

For optimum engine operation and maximum service life diesel fuels meeting the property requirements listed in the tablebelow are recommended for use

NOTE When prolonged idling periods or cold weather conditions below 0degC (32degF) are encountered theuse of 1-D fuel is recommended However note that transit coach engines are emission certified on eitherNo 1 or No 2 Diesel fuel To maintain emission compliance only use the correct certified fuel

NOTE Please note that biodiesel fuel blended above B5 is not permissible in DD Platform or MBEengines

NOTE Raw Vegetable Oil and similar triglycerides are not permissible in all DETROITtrade or MBE enginesas a blendstock additive or contaminant

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

6 Diesel Fuel

61 Diesel FuelThe quality of fuel used is a very important factor in obtaining satisfactory engine performance long engine life andacceptable exhaust emission levels For EPA07 EPA10 GHG14 and GHG17 exhaust compliant engines equipped withexhaust aftertreatment devices the use of Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel (15-ppm 00015 wt) is critical to thefunction and service life of these devices Use of this fuel in pre-2007 engines will provide cleaner combustion less soot andfewer fuel-related deposits ULSD fuel is recommended by Detroittrade for use in Series 60 Series 50 Series 55 MBE 900MBE 4000 DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines

62 Diesel Fuel Quality and SelectionAll DD Platform engines are designed to operate on Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel For optimal fuel systemperformance Detroit Diesel recommends Top Tier Diesel (see figure below)

For optimum engine operation and maximum service life diesel fuels meeting the property requirements listed in the tablebelow are recommended for use

NOTE When prolonged idling periods or cold weather conditions below 0degC (32degF) are encountered theuse of 1-D fuel is recommended However note that transit coach engines are emission certified on eitherNo 1 or No 2 Diesel fuel To maintain emission compliance only use the correct certified fuel

NOTE Please note that biodiesel fuel blended above B5 is not permissible in DD Platform or MBEengines

NOTE Raw Vegetable Oil and similar triglycerides are not permissible in all DETROITtrade or MBE enginesas a blendstock additive or contaminant

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

612 Fuel Quality Requirements 3bull Petroleum diesel fuel should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements before blending Diesel fuel

must meet the appropriate industry diesel fuel specification ASTM D975 CANCGSB-3517 or EN 590 at a minimumbull Biodiesel blendstock should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements before blending Biodiesel

blendstock must meet the appropriate industry biodiesel specification ASTM D6751 CANCGSB-3524 EN 14214 at aminimum

bull Biodiesel blends up to 5 (B5) should preferably meet the Detroit TM B5 fuel quality requirements 5 biodiesel blendsmust meet the appropriate industry B5 specification ASTM D975 CANGCSB- 3520 EN 590

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 31DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

6 Diesel Fuel

26 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

621 Fuel LubricityDiesel fuel plays very critical role in the engine fuel injection systems lubrication process The fuel injection system and fuelpump is protected from wear by the fuel Some processes used to desulfurize if severe enough diesel fuel can also reduce thenatural lubricating qualities of the diesel fuel The use of inadequately lubricating fuel would decrease the life expectancy ofthe engine fuel injection systems It is recommended that all fuels used in Detroittrade engines meet the minimum lubricityrequirements listed in the above table Diesel Fuel Specifications Fuels not meeting the lubricity requirements may beadditized to meet them

622 Premium Diesel FuelPremium diesel fuels are not covered by any existing industry specification It is recommended that the customer obtainadditional information from the fuel marketer and compare properties to those listed in the above Tables before using

63 Diesel Fuel PropertiesThe boiling range indicates the temperature range over which the fuel turns to a vapor and is a very important property inconsideration of diesel fuel quality Lower boiling range fuels such as No1 have a higher volatility while fuels such as No2 are of lower volatility and higher temperature boiling range Higher volatility fuels are preferred in conditions of prolongedidling such as city coach applications or in cold temperatures The determination of boiling range is made using ASTM TestMethod D 86 (Distillation) or D 2887 (Gas Chromatography)

631 DistillationAlthough many specifications contain only a partial listing of the distillation results (Distillation Temperature at 90Recovered for example) this is not enough to determine the quality and suitability of the fuel for use in diesel enginesDiesel fuels are blended products which may contain high boiling constituents that can affect combustion Only use fuelswith a minimum 98 recovery by distillation Use the full boiling range as listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications forproper selection

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

632 95 Boiling PointFuel can be burned in an engine only after it has been completely vaporized The temperature at which the fuel is completelyvaporized is described as the ldquoEnd Point Temperaturerdquo in Distillation Test Method ASTM D 86 Since this temperature isdifficult to measure with good repeatability the fuels 90 or 95 distillation point is often used Detroittrade specifies the 95temperature because it is closer to the end point than the 90 used in ASTM D 975

633 Cetane NumberCetane Number is a relative measure of the time delay between the beginning of fuel injection and the start of combustion Ina cold engine a low cetane number will cause difficult starting and white exhaust smoke until the engine warms up Inengines with charge air cooling a low cetane number fuel may also cause white exhaust smoke during light load operation Aminimum cetane number of 43 is specified for best engine performance However the cetane number alone should not beconsidered when selecting a quality fuel Other properties such as 95 distillation temperature and carbon residue shouldalso be considered

Calculated Cetane Index is sometimes reported instead of Cetane Number Cetane Index is an empirical property determinedmathematically from boiling range temperatures and specific gravity of the fuel whereas Cetane Number is determinedthrough an engine test Additives may be used by the fuel marketer to improve the cetane number however they have noeffect on cetane index Evaluate both properties when selecting diesel fuel The effect of biodiesel fuel on Calculated CetaneIndex is unknown

64 Fuel StabilityIn the presence of air heat and water diesel fuel does oxidize The oxidation of fuel can result in the formation of undesirablegums deposits and sediments These adverse byproducts can cause filter plugging combustion chamber deposit formationand gumming or lacquering of fuel injection system components with resultant reduced engine performance and fueleconomy These adverse byproducts can also have the potential to cause fuel system component failures The following testsare specified for fuel stability

641 ASTM D 2274ASTM D 2274 (Accelerated) measures diesel fuel storage oxidative stability It is a weighed measure of the sediment filteredfrom the fuel after storage Although the results of ATSM D 2274 may vary with actual field storage it does measurecharacteristics in fuels containing no biodiesel that will affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 12 months

642 ASTM D 6468ASTM D 6468 measures high temperature stability It must be run at 150degC (302degF) The results of the test are based on avisual rating of the filter pad by the amount of light reflected from the filter pad A 100 rating is a clean pad while a 50rating is very dirty

643 EN 15751EN 15751 Rancimat Oxidation Stability measures oxidative stability in biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends have loweroxidative stability than 100 petroleum-based diesel fuel For biodiesel blends the test method must be run at 110ordmC with aminimum oxidation induction time of 6 hours This method is capable of measuring characteristics of biodiesel blends thatwill affect fuel storage stability for periods of up to 3 months Due to the lower oxidative stability of biodiesel blends theyare not recommended for use in applications where fuel will not be stored either in bulk containers or in vehicle tanks formore than 3 months

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

65 Fuel Operating Temperature and ViscositySince diesel fuel provides cooling of the injection system the temperature of the fuel may vary considerably due to engineoperating temperature As fuel temperature increases fuel viscosity decreases along with the lubrication capabilities of thefuel Maintaining proper fuel temperatures and selecting fuels with the viscosity ranges listed in table ldquoDiesel FuelSpecificationsrdquo will ensure the injection system functions properly

When operating with reduced fuel viscosity or elevated fuel temperatures the injectors will operate at reduced internalclearances As a result dirt and smaller particulate material may cause injector durability concerns Change filters onDetroittrade On-Highway engines to those specified for ldquoSevere Duty Servicerdquo Installing a fuel cooler or operating with fueltanks above half full may also help eliminate the concern

66 Low Temperature Operability or Cold Weather OperationAll Diesel fuel contains paraffin waxes which are crystalline in nature containing straight chain (normal alkanes) that willbegin to solidify at low ambient temperatures forming a gel that collects on the fuel filter restricting fuel flow to the engineLow temperature performance of diesel fuel can be characterized by its Cloud Point and Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP)and Pour Point

661 Cloud PointCloud Point (CP) is the temperature at which the paraffin wax begins to solidify precipitate from the fuel and the fuel beginsto appear cloudy as measured by ASTM D2500 method The wax formation can be identified with fuel filter problems Thefuel filter and possibly the fuel lines could become clogged with waxes or gels and potentially starve the engine of fuel

The only effective means of lowering a fuels Cloud Point is by blending with No 1 Diesel Fuel Cold Flow Additives aretypically not very effective at lowering the Cloud Point they generally are effective at lowering the CFPP (see below)Although cold flow additives may be effective at improving the cold weather operability of diesel fuel extreme caution mustbe taken not to use too much additive As with any fuel additive excessive use may cause operability problems The best andmost effective means of improving the cold weather operability of No 2 Diesel Fuel is to blend with No 1 Diesel Fuel untilits Cloud Point is equal to or below the expected ambient temperature Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives forfurther information

662 Cold Filter Plugging PointCold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) is the temperature at which the fuel (20 ml) will no longer pass through a wire (45 micron)filter within a given period of time (60 seconds) as measured by ASTM D6371-10 Cold Filter Plugging Point is alwayslower than Cloud Point Diesel fuel can safely operate down to its Cloud Point and in some cases slightly below Operabilityproblems are usually encountered before the CFPP Therefore it is recommended to only use diesel fuel in ambienttemperatures at or above its Cloud Point

After market cold flow additives could help to lower the CFPP However it is important to understand the primary functionof additives is to inhibit the wax particles ability to agglomerate in the fuel helping to prevent filter clogging Overtreatmentof the fuel beyond the manufacturers recommendations could have an adverse effect in the fuel where the anti-gel materialwill clog-up the filter Also the operator should check with the fuel supplier whether the fuel is already winterized by thesupplier before adding any type of cold flow improver additives Refer to section Aftermarket Fuel Additives for furtherinformation

663 Pour PointPour Point is the temperature at which the fuel will no longer flow or eventually turn solid Typically and effectively the pourpoint of fuels can be adjusted with mixing D1 or kerosene

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

67 Fuel Tank Contaminations and Maintenance Practices-Housekeeping

671 Water and Sediment Contaminationbull Water in diesel fuel leads to storage tank corrosions especially if it shows high alkalinity properties due to salt (such as

Sodium)or if acidic properties arise from low molecular weight acids (such as formic and acetic acid) contamination Italso promotes microbial growth at the water fuel interface (emulsions) if the fuel contains detergent additives Good fuelhandling practices including bulk tank filtration regularly removing the water from the bottom of the storage tank andregular tank cleaning is the best practice to prevent any type of contaminations

bull The presence of sediment in fuel storage tank could cause filter plugging problems and the obstruction of fuel into theengine fuel injection systems

bull Sample water bottoms every six months (including microbial growth)bull Change filters every 3-6 monthsbull Recommended cleaning intervals for fuel tanks are every 2 to 5 years or as needed

Some fuel additives claim temporary benefit when fuel is contaminated with water They are not intended to replace goodfuel handling practices Supplemental fuel additives designed to disperse emulsify or carry the water through the fuel systemshould not be used as they can disable or significantly reduce the efficiency of fuelwater separators resulting in fuel systemcorrosion and deposits Since many fuel additives act as surfactants their effect on the efficiency of fuelwater separatorsshould be evaluated by ASTM D7261 test method which is a quick measurement of roughly how much water passes througha coalescing filter in a single pass Where water contamination is a concern equip the fuel system with a fuelwater separatorand service it regularly

672 Microbial ContaminationDiesel fuel at the refinery location is mostly tolerant to microbial organisms (bacteria and fungi) because of the heatingprocess applied during the production process The problem with microbial contaminations arises as the fuel is releasedthrough the pipeline and reaches to terminals retail stores and storage tanks

The production of ULSD via hydro treating process has created some undesirable consequences to the diesel fuel supplychain The following are some of the major factors contributing to the problems

bull ULSD fuel holds less water (more non-dissolved water) This event has made more free water at the bottom of the tankwhich allows microbial growth more favorable in the fuel

bull Reduction in aromatics content (aromatics were believed to act as effective biocide)bull Reduction in sulfur (500-ppm to 15-ppm) has created more potential microbial growth Again Sulfur was believed to act

as effective and potent biocide in the fuel tanksbull Contaminants such as salts (sodium) organic acid and soaps can now reside at the bottom layer of the fuel (water) which

potentially propagate the growth and reproduction of microorganism The acidic or basic nature of the water layerdrastically increases storage tank corrosion

These undesirable and observable facts can cause several problems The obvious relationship between microorganisms andperformance is fuel filter plugging The bio-slime (green-brown) can coat the filter and can eventually lead to fuel filter lifereduction and fuel starvation

In marine and other environments where microbe growth is a problem a biocide may be used Microbial activity may beconfirmed with commercially available test kits When checking for microbial activity collect fuel samples from the bottomof the fuel tank Follow the manufacturers instructions for treatment Avoid the use of biocides containing chlorine bromineor fluorine compounds since these may cause fuel system corrosion

68 Diesel Fuel StorageDiesel fuel storage tanks are one of the most important pieces of equipment in truck fleet operations as it helps to save timeand finances for the ownership Diesel fuel tanks produced from Monel stainless steel black iron welded steel or reinforced(non-reactive) plastic are considered acceptable materials for use

Maintenance (good housekeeping) practices should play a major role to ensure the quality of the diesel fuel is free ofcontaminants such as water and microbial growth to prevent costly down time due to unexpected repair in the operation

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

30 All information subject to change without noticeCopyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION DDC-SVC-BRO-0001

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

bull Biodiesel blends up to 5 (B5) should preferably meet the Detroit TM B5 fuel quality requirements 5 biodiesel blendsmust meet the appropriate industry B5 specification ASTM D975 CANGCSB- 3520 EN 590

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 31DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

To keep diesel fuel tanks clean and free of contamination the following preventive maintenance should be included at anyoperation

bull Inspection of storage tanks and stored fuel regularly for dirt water and sludgebull Regular fuel filters replacementsbull Establish fuel sampling and testing program for microorganisms and degradation by products Drain and clean tanks with

regular discharge of water bottomsbull Removal of contaminated diesel fuel from problem areas including sludge and other materials

NOTICE Do not use galvanized steel or sheet metal tanks and galvanized pipes or fittings in any diesel fuelstorage delivery or fuel system The diesel fuel will react chemically with the zinc coating forming a compoundwhich can clog filters and cause engine damage

69 Aftermarket Fuel AdditivesDetroittrade engines are designed to operate satisfactorily on a wide range of diesel fuels The regular use of aftermarket fueladditives is not required or recommended due to potential fuel injector system or engine damage Our experience has beenthat such additives increase operating costs without providing benefit Aftermarket fuel additive supplements available atmost retail stores are intended to be added to the fuel by the customer These include a variety of independently marketedproducts which claim to be

bull Cold Flow Improvers (prevents fuel jelling) Lower CFPP (help prevent fuel filter plugging)bull Biocidebull Fuel injection system deposit cleaners or removersbull Oxidative stabilitybull Cetane Improvers (booster)bull Emission Control Additivesbull Fuel Economybull Smoke Suppressantsbull Detergentsbull Combustion Improversbull Icing preventers

Detroittrade recognizes some of the above listed additives may be beneficial in addressing temporary fuel quality issues butthey should not replace proper fuel selection and handling as described in the above sections of the brochure

Should a customer decide that a supplemental additive is temporarily required the following is intended to provide guidanceto the customer in selecting and additive partner evaluating potential safety hazards and deleterious engine effects

bull Choose a fuel additive company with strong technical support both in both the field and laboratory Fuel additivecompanies should be able to test your fuel and show that it is deficient in some way and be able to demonstrate that theirproduct fixes the finding (s) Companies such as Afton Infineum Innospec and Lubrizol may be considered Alternatelychoose an additive supplier that works closely with these companies

bull Review a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or a Technical Product Bulletin carefully for special handling instructionsand hazardous material content

bull Get a detailed compositional analysis from the supplier Ash forming metallic elements and corrosive elements must not bepresent Additives containing calcium barium zinc phosphorous sodium magnesium iron copper and manganese areknown to cause combustion ash deposits that can foul fuel injectors and create deposits which may adversely affectcylinder life Halogenated compounds containing chloride fluoride and bromide are corrosive as are some sulfurcontaining compounds Avoid the use of additives with these components Also avoid language that says all in oneproducts

bull Be sure to ask your additive supplier to explain the proper handling mixing and storage of the additive(s) Be sure tofollow all recommendations made by the additive supplier Improper mixing and storage can negatively affect theperformance characteristics of any additive

bull Many additives act as surfactants evaluate the effect of water separation characteristics on the fuel in combination with theadditive Refer to Table Diesel Fuel Specifications for performance requirements

bull Many commercial diesel fuels today contain performance additives particularly those marketed as premium diesel fuelAny supplemental additive being considered must be compatible with the fuel it is to be used in Evaluate a mixture

containing twice the recommended concentration of additive for compatibility to represent an over dosage condition usingthe tests listed in Table Diesel Fuel Specifications

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

612 Fuel Quality Requirements 3bull Petroleum diesel fuel should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements before blending Diesel fuel

must meet the appropriate industry diesel fuel specification ASTM D975 CANCGSB-3517 or EN 590 at a minimumbull Biodiesel blendstock should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements before blending Biodiesel

blendstock must meet the appropriate industry biodiesel specification ASTM D6751 CANCGSB-3524 EN 14214 at aminimum

bull Biodiesel blends up to 5 (B5) should preferably meet the Detroit TM B5 fuel quality requirements 5 biodiesel blendsmust meet the appropriate industry B5 specification ASTM D975 CANGCSB- 3520 EN 590

Lubricating Oil Fuel and Filters

All information subject to change without notice 31DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 Copyright copy 2019 DETROIT DIESEL CORPORATION

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

bull Conduct performance evaluation of a fuel supplemental additive in customer equipment for a minimum of six monthsTesting should be a side-by-side comparison with and without the additive to verify performance claims Testimonials donot guarantee similar performance in all applications

The use of supplemental fuel additives does not necessarily void the engine warranty However warranty and repair expenseswhich are determined by Detroit Diesel or its representative to have resulted from a fuel additive will not be coveredAccompany these products with performance data supporting their merit as well as the manufacturers warranty policy

Detroittrade will not test or verify the performance of any aftermarket additives It will not accept responsibility for the useselection or hazards relating to the use of such products

610 Fuel Additives That Are Not AllowedThe following fuel additives are NOT allowed

bull Used Lubricating Oil - Detroittrade specifically prohibits the use of drained lubricating oil in diesel fuel Used lubricating oilcontains combustion acids and particulate materials which erode injector components resulting in loss of power andincreased exhaust emissions In addition the use of drained lubricating oil will increase maintenance requirements due tofilter plugging and combustion deposits Refer to section Recycled Re-Refined Oils for recommendations on properused oil disposal

bull Gasoline - The addition of gasoline to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of gasoline in diesel fuelwill reduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures

bull Ethanol - The addition of ethanol to diesel fuel will create a serious fire hazard The presence of ethanol in diesel fuel willreduce the fuel cetane number and increase combustion temperatures Drain and clean tanks that contain such mixtures assoon as possible Detroittrade will not be responsible for any detrimental effects which it determines resulted from the use ofused lubricating oil gasoline or ethanol in diesel fuel

611 Biodiesel 1 General recommendations and guidelinesDetroittrade supports biodiesel as a renewable fuel Biodiesel fuels are mono alkali esters of long chain fatty acids commonlyreferred to as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) and are derived from renewable resources through a chemical process calledtransesterification

Detroittrade approves the use of biodiesel fuel blends as follows

bull DD Family of Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull MBE9004000 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 5 are allowedbull S60 Engines - Biodiesel blends up to 20 are allowed

Engines built prior to MY 2004 may contain materials that are not compatible with biodiesel blends Biodiesel blends above5 are not recommended 2

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

bull Biodiesel blends from 6 to 20 (B6- B20) should preferably meet the Detroit TM diesel fuel quality requirements Up to20 biodiesel blends must meet the appropriate industry B6- B20 specification ASTM D 7467 CANGCSB-3522 at aminimum

613 Additional CautionsFuel Filter plugging may be more frequent with biodiesel blends

bull Biodiesels solvency can clean the fuel system depositing debris in fuel filtersbull Always carry extra fuel filters on-boardbull Synthetic filter media is recommendedbull If choosing to run with biodiesel blends of B6 - B20 change the fuel filters at half the normal maintenance interval

Changing the filters more frequently will ensure that water separation performance is maintained at appropriate levelsbull Fuel filter replacement is not to be covered under Detroit Diesel Warrantybull Secondary fuel system hardware failure attributable to premature fuel filter plugging with biodiesel blends is not covered

under Detroit Diesel Warranty

614 Oxidative Stabilitybull Biodiesel blends are less stable than petroleum diesel fuel and should not be stored for more than three (3) monthsbull Biodiesel blends are not suitable for applications involving low frequency usebull Before parking an engine for an extended time period the fuel system must be purged of all biodiesel blends and flushed

with petroleum diesel fuel

615 Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systemsbull B20 blends are compatible with Detroits aftertreatment devices (DPF and SCR technologies) provided that it meets all

quality specifications listed abovebull Biodiesel blends contaminated with phosphorus alkali (Na and K) or alkaline (Ca and Mg) metals not meeting the

specification limits may lead to premature poisoning and plugging of aftertreatment device

616 Cold performance is worsenedbull Use of biodiesel blends above 5 are not recommended in colder regionsbull The cloud point and cold filter plugging point (CFPP) properties of the fuel on the certificate of analysis should be

regularly monitored and compared to expected ambient temperature to be encountered in use Refer to ASTM D975 fortenth percentile minimum ambient air temperatures in the United States

bull Cold flow or anti-gel additives may respond differently to biodiesel blends consult with the fuel supplier to determineactual performance

617 Water contaminationbull Biodiesel is more friendly to water it will not separate as easilybull Water separator efficiency is significantly reduced More frequent changes of fuel coalescers may offset the reduced water

separation efficiencybull ASTM D7261 can be run to determine the fuels water coalescing abilitybull Excessive water contamination may lead to corrosion in fuel system and promote microbial growthbull Fuel injection system failure due to corrosion determined to be caused by use of biodiesel fuel blends will not be covered

by Detroit Diesel Warranty

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

7 Filtration

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible

618 Microorganism growthbull Biodiesel has an increased tendency for microbial growthbull Microbial contamination may cause premature fuel filter plugging andor corrosion in the fuel systembull Laboratory testing for microbial growth is available Fuel samples must be collected from the bottom of the tank (water

layer) to accurately detect the microbes

619 Engine oil analysis is requiredbull Using biodiesel blends may require reduced engine oil drain intervalsbull Biodiesel may accelerate acid formation in the engine oilbull Biodiesel fuel dilution is very harmful to the engine oil and will not evaporate from the engine oil as easily as diesel fuelbull Biodiesel fuel dilution will reduce the oil viscosity and accelerate oil degradation requiring reduced oil drain intervalsbull Used oil analysis is required for the first few oil changes after converting to B20 to check for fuel dilution and to confirm

the proper oil drain interval Detroit Genuine Oil Analysis Program is recommended (pn 23520989)

620 Warranty implicationsbull Detroit Diesel is not responsible for the cost of maintenance or repairs due to the lack of performance of required

maintenance services or the failure to use fuel oil lubricants and coolants meeting Detroit Diesel-recommendedspecifications Performance of required maintenance and use of proper fuel oil lubricants and coolants are theresponsibility of the owner For full details see the engine operators guide for your engine

bull Using biodiesel blends does not automatically void Detroit Diesels warranty However any failure includingaftertreatment devices and fuel injection system failures determined to be caused by biodiesel blends not meeting therequirements documented in this publication will not be covered by Detroit Diesel warranty

71 FiltrationFilters make up an integral part of fuel and lubricating oil systems Proper filter selection and maintenance are important tosatisfactory engine operation and service life Use filters however to maintain a clean system not to clean up a contaminatedsystem

711 Fuel and Lubricating Oil FiltersFilter performance and test specifications vary between manufacturers These specifications are general in nature and do notreflect the actual performance of Detroittrade genuine filters The user is also cautioned when comparing micron ratingsbetween filter makes Some filter manufacturers may publish results from tests in which the SAE J1858 test procedure wasnot used It is also important to note that capacity and efficiency (micron) ratings should not be the only criteria on which tojudge filter performance Many other important factors including media strength resistance to impulse failures and burststrength often differ greatly between filter makes and should enter into the filter selection process

Finer filtration will generally provide increased engine service life but may require shorter filter change intervals Detroittradespecifies filter performance based on the optimum combination of filter micron rating filter capacity and mechanicalrequirements (assembly integrity)

Biodiesel fuels also have an affect on filter life Refer to section Biodiesel Fuels

Fuel Filter Requirements

bull Engine fuel filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with oil changes or when the Fuel FilterService Lamp activates on the dashboard

bull For maximum life of fuel system components it is not recommended to exceed 100000 miles on engine fuel filters underany condition

bull Currently the Detroit Frame Mounted Fuel Filter and the Davco 485 amp 487 are the only compatible frame mounted fuelfilters approved for use with GHG17 DD13regDD15regDD16reg engines

Oil Filter Requirements

bull Engine oil filters should be changed at recommended service intervals aligning with engine oil changes

712 Supplemental Oil FiltersThe use of supplemental by-pass oil filtration devices are not allowed on DD5 DD8 DD13 DD15 and DD16 engines It isrecommended that the customer use Detroit branded oil filters when ever possible
