[QUOTE="tieguy, post: 796501, member: 1912"] DEF ( diesel exhaust fuel) is what some have come to call cow urine. presently its ordered in big 300 gallon skid containers and 55 gallon pump dispensers. Most facilities are not designed for it. You can's store it outside since it will freeze in colder climates you have to wheel the 55 gallon dispenser in and out of a building or find a place indoors where you can store it. This is to improve emissions. there is a seperate tank for it. I have not seen any new ups tractors with it but I have seen it on rentals. On those the extra tank was located between the steps and diesel tank on the tractor. One issue I see is you cant visually inspect the tank to see if its full you have to rely on the gauge not sure if the new mac's are the same? there is a training powerpoint presentation you can play i have not seen a video. Over I'm surprised to hear about the regeneration. There is a phase of tractors that requires regeneration to clear out exhaust emissions. I didnt realize regeneration was required with the DEF systems. My understanding is you can regenerate if you're driving down the highway but should probably pull over if you're in heavy stop and go driving to regenerate. [/QUOTE]
