Funny part is the EPA is concerned about emissions but all that smog crap effects MPG. My new 2500 Ram gets 18-21 mph at 65-70 mph. My friends truck that’s “deleted” get 24 mpg at the same speed. But he also has 22x12 rims on 35” tires. His truck is also tuned to not smoke at all. So why can’t manufacturers tune the factory truck to run cleaner and get amazing fuel mileage.
My 2012 2500 went from 12-14 to 21-24 MPG no smoke unless I turned the tune all the way up and dogged the shit out of it. It also helped cool the motor down I used as a work truck and it would get hot before the delete. Just bought the dreaded 6.4 looking forward to seeing how much a delete and tune helps It

I am a retired heavy equipment mechanic. Yeah, the EPA is a bummer. Wanna know what else is? Lung cancer at 50 for a non-smoking diesel mechanic because breathing diesel particulate is just as bad as breathing asbestos. I have fellas I worked with for 20+ years that died of cancer soon after retiring or didn't even make it to retirement. Coal miners get Black Lung disease. Diesel tuners back in my day, nearly just as bad. Honestly, the fellas that like to 'Roll Coal' on people is completely shameful. What I know about diesel particulate, that should be an assault with a deadly weapon. I'd like to see the manufactures do a better job in making these systems more dependable. Unfortunately, deleting the system doesn't encourage the manufactures to improve the systems. The manufacturer has your money. Not buying the trucks because the systems are not dependable is the only solution. Unfortunate wisdom is wasted on us old folks. You aren't going to look cool if you are missing a lung, Just sayin.
@@HeronCalaris LOL What? LOL I was once Conservative. The EPA is a Conservative program. Yes. The EPA is trying to save your lungs. Both of them. I am an old retired heavy equipment mechanic.

If that was clearly the case where all these farmer with lung cancer. There was pre def tractors long ago. A typical farmer doesn’t hire a mechanic he fixes it himself
@@marcomandolini86 A typical farmer isn't working on his tractor every day now is he dimwit. A diesel mechanic working on a fleet of transit busses is. AG is incredibly toxic.
The problem with diesel emissions control is all of the secondary and third effects it has on the environment. Something like def may stop that “scary black smoke” but what about the cardboard and plastic that it comes in that goes into the trash. Or the plants and factories that create emissions to manufacture these items. What about the mines in Africa to get the palladium, rhodium, and platinum to build catalytic converters and DPF’s. Not to mention that these things decrease fuel efficiency which in turn causes more fossil fuels to be burned to create less work. All this to stop trucks from producing black smoke that doesn’t even go into the atmosphere. It is solid carbon particles that fall to the ground. It’s similar to getting raw coal and grinding it into a powder and dumping it on the ground. SMH 🤦♂️
My dad has a 2012 Chevy 3500 LML duramax and after buying it from an acquaintance (130,000 miles) it had issues with the def system within a month or so. My dad decided to do a full delete and him and I did it ourselves and now his exhaust system is a straight pipe and a muffler. Sounds absolutely amazing, gets slightly better MPG, and boy it has some balls now.
Lets just say, my truck started sounding weird after getting off a dirtroad. Now my truck has more power, cleaner oil, gets better fuel mileage, and the driveability is night and day... and doesn't even smoke. Weird!
These are pretty much the only issues on newer ford diesels. NOX sensors, DEF tank heaters/injectors, particulate sensors, egt’s, EGR, etc. Outside of that, and crankcase vent separator issues, nothing generally goes wrong on them.
My dad has a 15 Cummins and the truck would always say that it was out of def even when it was topped off and you had 100 miles to get to the dealer so they could fix the problem, it would always take several days to fix and was never fixed permanently so he deleted and straight piped it and hasn’t had any problems since
I drive a School Bus. Just doing some research into how DEF and exhaust works on a diesel. Trying to figure out why two buses (out of 5) go through almost twice the DEF as the others (without appearing to leak). Good video! Thanks for posting!
My dads 2012 Duramax had emissions issues right after he bought it. So he said “screw it” and tuned it,straight piped it, and deleted it. So now there’s no more emissions stuff on it 😂
The EPA made us have more expensive, less reliable trucks, with worse fuel mileage. All while burning more of a non-renewable resource and shoving DEF in *plastic* bottles to be "cleaner". Are we really?
Drive a F-550 at work. Lots of low speed, low RPM driving. Plus lots of idling. One day the vehicle told me it needed to be serviced because essentially the DPF was dirty. Put the transmission in "M" and 3rd gear, drove around like that for about 10 miles, and that cleaned it.
I have a 2021 Sliverado with the 3 litre engine, 12000 kilometres and emission problems already! I would have thought they would have the systems figured out by now!
My biggest issue with def is solely the limp mode. 5 mph is absolutely asinine. Diesel are used to haul stuff, meaning they are usually hundreds of miles away from home. And if it goes into limp mode, and I have to take it to a dealer 200 miles from home, how long is it gonna be there? A day? A week? A month? Several months? No thanks.
Thank god for deletes and that’s why I like buying 07 on down. If you have a good tune it will run more efficiently shouldn’t have black smoke coming out the exhaust just a waist of fuel.
Let's call it like it is: Diesel engines were lasting too long and the government had to find a way to destroy them. DEF is CORROSIVE AF. I won't USE IT.
@@emptysoul4455 bro. Africa is quite poor majority of people here drive gas vehicles diesels are usually on midsize trucks and heavier duty transportation vehicles and even so some trucks here are gas powered. Unfortunately not everyone buys a diesel and we those that build their trucks mess up their suspension components because they do it incorrectly or are sold knock off lift kits wheels and tyres NOT from custom offsetd.
@@rampagedingo honestly with the way things are going here in the USA I don’t have much faith that it’ll be that way here before long. This country is going to shit more and more everyday.
@@emptysoul4455 i see that. The whole world sees that. Here in Africa long time ago people used to DESIRE intensively to go to America. After the Trump became president a lot of people gave up on the American dream. No offense to you guys I mean I love America, a lot of the diverse cultures there shaped some parts of the world in a positive way but some of the things going on there is sketchy.
You didn’t mention that SCR replaces the EGR. With SCR you can run high combustion temperatures again without any EGR and gets all the power and efficiency back. Basically you can make the bulk NOx that a high temperature combustion produces and then jsut nuke it in the SCR.
I remember in a chemistry class I took we created nitrogen oxide. I can see why they'd want to eliminate it from the air. The instructor told us we must do it under a hood and this viscous nasty brown smoke came out of the reaction. Too bad the DEF system is so cumbersome though.
I recently bought a 2016 6.7 and thinking about deleting it but I still want it to be able to pass inspection and I honestly don’t know how to go about it
It depends on how they run inspections in your state. Luckily in Alabama, we don’t have any…yet. As long as your truck isn’t loud as shit or rolls a shit ton of coal, you’re good here. Just do some research about the emissions testing process in your state and find out what to be careful for. If you’re looking for a better sounding exhaust then a lot websites have emission passing exhaust kits. But a full delete from your egr to your def is not only expensive af but there’s no legal way to do it unless you are deemed exempt, if your state does that type of thing.
Currently sitting in a freight liner and the light came in and I’m frantically looking up TH-cam this video came on I’m yet a bit concerned on what I need to do?? It’s been 25 min and the light on come on, my dash reads 2 squares of def what to do what to do 🧐…
I am unconvinced the extra fuel usage caused by the def regen is actually worth the smog reduction, environmentally speaking. I guess It makes the air cleaner at the cost of more co2, which I suppose could be worth while in urban environments.
The “brain fog” that truck drivers get is really just oxidative stress from diesel exhaust leaking into the cab and all it takes is one NOx exposure to cause irregular heartbeat
I think I own a unicorn. I have a bone stock 2015 ram ecodiesel. 0 problems and 180 000km on it. I tow a 8000 pound trailer about 5 times a year. I've thought about modding it but I figure I shouldn't mess with it untill it breaks.
About to buy my second brand new truck (first was gas) and still thinking of staying away from diesel. I don’t pull anything heavy and don’t need the fuel economy. Just heard too many diesel horror stories.
Don’t delete, do a stealth delete! A stealth delete is where you make a hole in the DPF then throwing a pipe in the center of it so it’ll bypass all of it while passing a visual inspection. It’s like gutting a cat, but leaving the guts of it in there so if you tap on the can it’ll sound like it’s stock, but there’s a little secret in the center of it.
Last week I was with my 17 year old nephew doing some shopping. Come to a red light and I pull up next to this big ole tuned Ford F-450 with double stacks out the back. I roll my window down and get his attention amd ask; "can you roll me some coal?" He just smiled at me. I laughed and gave him air pound. My nephew chimes in and says, "I didn't know you smoke, Uncle Ronnie." 😂 I thought his generation is doomed at first until I realized. You just dont see that many diesel stacks rolling coal in 2023.
I'm in Northern New York every year it gets the like negative 20 at least wind chill if not colder we have DEF tanks freeze on the farm every year It's just f****** stupid to have that crap on equipment in the north.
35% urea and deionized water ! My question is when you burn urea it creates nh3 and co2 nh3 when in the atmosphere binds to droplets n creates acid rain , co2 is more carbon ! So are we just bleaching the smoke with mirrors?
"big fancy words" lol. Scary stuff! I bet if you remove the seatbelts, airbags, break lights, and blinkers, you'll get better mileage! Try that. If that doesn't work, turn on your "deleted" truck while parked inside your garage, and see how long it takes before you can't breathe anymore. Then you'll realize people like to breathe clean air, and maybe the EPA isn't such a bad "conspiracy" after all.
Crap. Sorry about that last one. I work in the oilfield, and back in like 12 or 13 the tractor was used as the power supply for a lot of the equipment. (Coil tubing, in this case). When, not if, the def system cratered, depending on what you were doing, you could be blowing 800 bucks a minute waiting on a mechanic, who has to come out of Houston or San Antonio. (Think fishing with the frac still there, for those in the know). Thats just shy of 50000 an hour. Since i didnt have to pay it, i laughed my butt off!! Delete city, here i come with my 2021 ram 3500!!

Can a semi truck run with Diesel Exhaust Fuel only and no diesel fuel?
Very well done presentation.
I don’t understand the point of rolling coal but the sound is nice
I can't stop thinking of the word PLAGUED.
That sucks. The EPA is clamping down on the tuner community as well. The days of catless j pipes are going away unless you do it yourself. It sucks
Run straight pipes.
Got it.
I think I own a unicorn. I have a bone stock 2015 ram ecodiesel. 0 problems and 180 000km on it. I tow a 8000 pound trailer about 5 times a year. I've thought about modding it but I figure I shouldn't mess with it untill it breaks.
Yep, unicorn for sure.
What happened if they redesigned the diesel to run on a 10to1 mix of laughing gas instead?
About to buy my second brand new truck (first was gas) and still thinking of staying away from diesel. I don’t pull anything heavy and don’t need the fuel economy. Just heard too many diesel horror stories.
Yoooooo I’m here for it
Almost had a Ute catch fire from dry grass near dpf while it was trying to do a burn
The epa thinks broken trucks in a junkyard are good for the environment
Day 124 of asking for the top 5 dually wheels
Fuel renegades look good on duallys
Fuel Triton are on my 2018 Ram 3500 dully
Whats def and why you should delete it!!
Don’t delete, do a stealth delete! A stealth delete is where you make a hole in the DPF then throwing a pipe in the center of it so it’ll bypass all of it while passing a visual inspection. It’s like gutting a cat, but leaving the guts of it in there so if you tap on the can it’ll sound like it’s stock, but there’s a little secret in the center of it.
That's way too much work.. Glad we got no emissions up here so far!
As someone from india whos currently facing an air pollution epidemic, adblue is worth it. Being sick and polluted is not cool 🚫 brothers
But the diesel carbon deposits are too heavy to break through the o-zone. Its really a waste
Last week I was with my 17 year old nephew doing some shopping. Come to a red light and I pull up next to this big ole tuned Ford F-450 with double stacks out the back. I roll my window down and get his attention amd ask; "can you roll me some coal?" He just smiled at me. I laughed and gave him air pound. My nephew chimes in and says, "I didn't know you smoke, Uncle Ronnie." 😂
I thought his generation is doomed at first until I realized. You just dont see that many diesel stacks rolling coal in 2023.
Can we just pee in the def tank?
I have a 2019 cummins, someone asked me if its gas cuase how quite it is, working on deleting it now..
I'm in Northern New York every year it gets the like negative 20 at least wind chill if not colder we have DEF tanks freeze on the farm every year It's just f****** stupid to have that crap on equipment in the north.
Love you guys
A diesel doesn't need DEF and It's recommended you get rid of that shit as soon as you can for better fuel mileage, performance, and emissions.
It's just about cleaning the air they don't care about truck being less reliable and less mpg
When are they making a delete kit and tuner for the 2020 3.0l duramax
Not soon enough by the sounds of it
@@CustomOffsetsTV I can’t wait to hear how mean it sounds, atleast I get to save my warranty for now😎
35% urea and deionized water ! My question is when you burn urea it creates nh3 and co2 nh3 when in the atmosphere binds to droplets n creates acid rain , co2 is more carbon ! So are we just bleaching the smoke with mirrors?
Def is good pour into an International diesel truck!
Don't think that 2nd gen in the cold had issues with it's DEF... Lol
They didn’t have def lol
@@pointblankdiesel621 *insert Simpsons "That's the joke" gif here*
No getting around it anymore. Let’s build a better system.
Yes I have on a mack truck that my dad was driving
"big fancy words" lol. Scary stuff! I bet if you remove the seatbelts, airbags, break lights, and blinkers, you'll get better mileage! Try that. If that doesn't work, turn on your "deleted" truck while parked inside your garage, and see how long it takes before you can't breathe anymore. Then you'll realize people like to breathe clean air, and maybe the EPA isn't such a bad "conspiracy" after all.
You have a garage that will fit our trucks?! Jealous!!
Crap. Sorry about that last one. I work in the oilfield, and back in like 12 or 13 the tractor was used as the power supply for a lot of the equipment. (Coil tubing, in this case). When, not if, the def system cratered, depending on what you were doing, you could be blowing 800 bucks a minute waiting on a mechanic, who has to come out of Houston or San Antonio. (Think fishing with the frac still there, for those in the know). Thats just shy of 50000 an hour. Since i didnt have to pay it, i laughed my butt off!! Delete city, here i come with my 2021 ram 3500!!
What Vedio App editor do you use?
How is there less carbon emissions with the DEF system when it causes the truck to use 35% more diesel?
The dpf filters all the carbon out burns it to ash then stores it
@@Zach________it does not store it.
How do I find someone who knows what they’re doing to delete the def?
And get delete
