CHU, CXU, GU, TD, MRU, LR Section 2 Introduction This information provides details for the MP7, MP8, and MP10 engines for MACK vehicles. Note: We have attempted to cover as much information as possible. However, this information does not cover all the unique variations that a vehicle chassis may present.
0.0015% by weight. This was done to reduce particle emissions in the exhaust. Bio Diesel The only biodiesel fuel approved by MACK Trucks, Inc. for use in MACK Engines is soy methyl ester (SME or SOME) in blends up to B20 concentration (20% blend).
Always let the engine idle for 3 to 5 minutes before shutting it off. MACK Trucks, Inc. does not recommend the use of winterfronts, shutters or any other shield in front of the grille or radiator package under normal circumstances.

MACK, Emissions Solution Exhaust Aftertreatment System Your new MACK chassis is equipped with emission compliant engine, with an engine exhaust aftertreatment system (DPF) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system. Vehicles equipped with a DPF require the use of EO-O Premium Plus (or VDS-4) specification high performance diesel engine oil and ultra low sulfur diesel (ULSD) fuel.

If an active regeneration is stopped by the vehicle operator, it should be initiated at a later time when the vehicle is in a safe location. However, if an active regeneration is stopped repeatedly, the vehicle may need to be taken to a MACK service fa- cility.

– for better combustion, while meeting the EPA near-zero NOx emissions requirement of 0.2 g/hp-hr NOx. By using DEF, we avoid the disadvantages of increasing EGR to massive levels. This results in better fuel economy from your MACK engine.

If exhaust smoke is visible during engine start up , this indicates a problem with the exhaust aftertreatment system. Take the vehicle to an authorized MACK Truck dealer immediately. Vehicles equipped with a US2010 emission compliant engine have an exhaust aftertreatment system which includes a selec- tive catalytic reduction (SCR) system and a catalyzed aftertreatment diesel particulate filter (DPF).

For emission compliance, all MACK chassis are equipped with a DPF unit which is designed to reduce soot-related emis- sions, particularly on vehicles used in metropolitan areas. The DPF unit replaces the standard muffler. The outer skin of the DPF unit reaches a temperature of approximately 300 °C (572 °F), and exhaust outlet temperatures can reach approximately 700 °C (1,290 °F), during regeneration cycles.

If exhaust smoke is visible during engine operation, this indicates a problem with the exhaust aftertreat- ment system. Take the vehicle to an authorized MACK Truck dealer immediately. Vehicles equipped with a US2010/GHG2017 emission compliant engine have an exhaust aftertreatment system which in- cludes a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system and a Catalyzed Aftertreatment Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF).
Note: If the pressure in the exhaust is too high, engine damage can result. Requirement: Allowed pressure in the exhaust piping after the SCR muffler; on MP7, MP8 and MP10 engines 3 - 5 kPa (0.43 - 0.73 psi).
