It's for emissions on the new diesels from GM and Ford. It's a urea mix of some sort injected in to burn off extra polluntants from the diesels.
 
ok..see if i knew it was the urea mix i would have gotten it right away...who in the hell descided to call it exhaust fluid?!?!?!?!....should be labled as emissions aditive or something more "serious"

you gotta admit..with a name like that its funny and fake sounding as hell
 
All our new trucks in the last 2 years have come with "DEF" (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) set-ups. The trucks still use a DPF system (Diesel Particulate Filter), these help trap all the soot and suck and when the filter reaches a certain level it goes into "regen". Now regen is basically a big after burner, the system will inject and ignite diesel into the soot and it heats up to 1500-2000* and then burns it off. The DEF is only added to help bring down the NoX's if I'm not mistaken.

Big extra cost to your fuel bill for the sake of the tree huggers. But now you get lower miles per gallon, so burn more fuel, and your adding more DEF to the system to keep running...seems like the EPA don't know what the heck they're doing.
 
well if the epa had a clue...they wouldnt have put a "ban" on importing high eficcency diesels from over seas as well as keep auto makers from bringing in the GOOD import engines...i blame the land of nuts and fruits

The sad part is, the urea injection alone can clean up the exhaust, no dpf or elevated operating temperatures needed. Cummins tested tons of engines so equipped. So basically, we're wasting power, and lots of fuel all in the name of environmental political correctness. All this brought to you by highly college educated politicians who know better than you what's best for you, but have never actually done what you do.[smilie=f:
