    Emissions driving me nuts

    Are you talking about that Kobelco? Does it have a Cummins? The Cummins are more expensive to delete, but if I had pics of the ECU, I can run it by my tuning guys. I'm pretty sure it can be done. That 37k fine is not applicable to off road use. I've never heard of fines being given except for on...

    Emissions driving me nuts

    Why not delete it? It's an off-road application, and that's not monitored neither is there any written laws against deleting OFF road equipment.

    Does anyone care about fuel efficiency?

    I sure would do that sooner than let restrictive garbage in the exhaust that does nothing but cost an honest, hard working man more money some days than he makes!!!! the magnets might do some good!!!=)

    Does anyone care about fuel efficiency?

    somebody is smoking weed. A catalytic converter does nothing but reduce engine life, decrease fuel mileage, rob power, and make equipment more expensive!

    DEF Delight or not??

    The best thing to do is delete it. All the stuff people say about getting in trouble for doing it is ON ROAD applications. Other than California, I have never heard of anybody getting into any issues with OFF-road stuff.

    DPF removal on C9

    The military does not run tier 4. They know it doesn't work. In some applications, they still run brand new 2-cycle detroit engines as they have a standing contract with detroit till like 2040. The best thing to do in a application like this is run pre-emissions stuff if you are paranoid about...

    310k regen issues

    To me it sounds like it might be time to think about deleting it.

    Kubota CTL issues

    That is regulation for on road use. The carbon footprint of the off road equipment is so small I don't think they even really care about that it. What they are going after and fining has been on road issues. I do care about environment, and that is why I am convinced it is better for us if we...

    Kubota CTL issues

    Almost all of Kubota svl95 issues come from the emissions stuff they stuck on them. If you get those machines deleted, you have one of the best pieces of artwork there is to have! They can run for thousands of hours with virtually zero issues.

    SVL75-2 Motor revs up and down, bogging

    No. Not for off road applications. The current regulations are that for new sales, they need to meet the emissions standard, but for off road use, it is not illegal to delete equipment.

    SVL75-2 Motor revs up and down, bogging

    If you ever have emissions issues with your svl75 and want to delete it, let me know. They are completely different machines after that!
