December Special for Champion Distributors

Champion has recently announced a December special for their diesel engine oils. Distributors will get 10% off the company's 275 gallon tote pricing, plus Free Freight. 

A lot of people don't realize Champion offers 4 different lines of diesel engine oils: Premium Heavy-Duty, All Fleet-T, Blue Flame and Ultra Fleet.

For diesel enthusiasts, oil is the lifeblood of their equipment. Oil's responsibilities are many. They include reducing friction, cooling, cleaning and sealing, as well as protecting moving parts. Because it is treated as a commodity the important roles it plays are often overlooked. 

For many enthusiasts, the Blue Flame is still burning. They want a brand they can identify with, so Champion is looking to expand its distribution to meet demand.

HERE ARE THE DETAILS

10% Off MWD Pricing on 275 Gallon Totes and Free Freight.

One tote is the equivalent of Five 55-Gallon Drums.

The Future of Diesel

Interest in the future goes back to the dawn of man, no doubt. 19th century visionary Jules Verne, whose books took readers 20,000 leagues under the sea, to the center of the earth and around the moon, had his sights set on the future. H.G. Wells' Time Machine carried readers far into the future. And a whole host of 20th century sci fi writers have given us visions of a tomorrow filled with robots, androids and pre-cogs. 

These thoughts crossed my mind as I read this article about commercial trucks of the future. The headline asks, Does Diesel Have a "Sell By" Date? 

The article, appeared in the Diesel Technology Forum this week, notes that 90% of the trucks on our nation's highways and byways are currently diesel. Based on current trends, what will be the configuration of diesel technology and trucking in 2040? This is the author's prediction:

Fast forward twenty years from now, and trucks will most likely be powered by a diversity of fuels and technology. Some may be powered by hydrogen and fuel cells, some may be battery electric, some may be operating on renewable natural gas or renewable diesel fuel. In any event, according to many sources, rather than having a “sell by“ date, diesel will remain as the dominant technology moving the nation’s freight for decades to come. 

Despite California's efforts to the contrary, industry insiders seem to agree that a majority of over-the-road transporters will still be diesel powered. 

Bloomberg New Energy Finance estimates that less than 20% of our heavy-duty commercial trucks will be powered by electricity in 2040. IHS Markit makes a similar estimate. Others make similar proposals. 

As one who has been paying attention to these issues--emissions and fuel economy--for more than a quarter century, I believe that there is a disconnect between what the public understands and what is really happening. Diesel engine manufacturers have made remarkable strides toward cleaner production of efficient power. 

This is by no means an attempt to derail efforts to improve. The article goes on to note that diesel engines have the advantage of being adaptable to alternative fuels that can reduce emissions.

Diesel trucks also have the capability of operating on advanced renewable biofuels that drive down greenhouse gas emissions, operating on high quality blends of biodiesel or 100 percent renewable diesel fuel. These are fuels that have at least a 50 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions relative to petroleum, with renewable diesel fuel, GHG emissions are reduced by at least 80 percent.

Whereas it's impossible to forecast the future with perfect 20/20 vision, that doesn't mean we can't have inklings. The stories that fill the headlines don't always reflect the realities. I remember the 1970's when  it was said that we will run out of oil in 10 years. They said it again in the 80s and 90s. Now, some say, there is more oil in the ground than we will ever take out. 

I'm not losing sleep over it. Full article here: https://www.dieselforum.org/policyinsider/what-do-the-commercial-trucks-of-the-future-look-like-in-2040-does-diesel-have-a-sell-by-date

Three States Celebrate Blue Flame Day

When this story was sent to my attention, I thought it was because it was going to be about Blue Flame Diesel Oil from Champion. (If interested, you can read about the oil below, after the Proclamations.) Turns out, the article was about another Blue Flame, a rocket car that became the world's fastest vehicle when driver Gary Gabelich recorded the World Land Speed Record of 622.407 mph (1001.667kph) for the "flying mile" and 630.388 mph (1014.5111kph) for the flying kilometer. 

This feat was accomplished on October 23, 1970, fifty years ago last month. Three states--Utah, Wisconsin and Illinois--celebrated the Half Centennial by declaring it Blue Flame Day.  

The rocket car was designed, in part, by students and professors at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago. Enthusiasts at Reaction Dynamics in Milwaukee fabricated it to get it ready for racing by the Blue Flame Team in Utah.

The beast, weighing more than 6500 pounds, was 37 feet long with the aluminum cylinder nearly eight feet high and wide. For power, the rocket engine produced 58,000 horsepower with 22,000 lbs. of thrust by burning a combination of hydrogen peroxide and liquefied natural gas pressurized by helium. They say that this remains the fastest American hot rod and fastest vehicle ever driven at Bonneville.

The first land speed records were measured and set in France from late 1898 to Spring of 1899. All six of these were achieved with electric vehicles. In 1902 a steam-powered car shattered the previous record by achieving 75 miles per hour. 

The first world speed record set in the United States was in 1904 in a Ford 999 Racer, driver by none other than Mr. Henry Ford himself. The internal combustion engine propelled the vehicle to more than 84 miles per hour. But by the end of that year cars driven by a Belgian and an Frenchman were flying faster than 100 mph.

In the 1920s and early 30's, while Babe Ruth was setting home run records, U.S. competitors were setting records at Daytona. It wasn't till 1935 that the Bonneville Salt Flats became the premiere place to showcase land speed capabilities, and in that year it was a Brit who did it. Malcolm Campbell became the first to blast through the 300 mph threshold. It must have been breathtaking at the time.

I used to subscribe to Sports Illustrated in the 1960s and remember reading about Craig Breedlove's efforts in the turbojet-powered Spirit of America. On one of those occasions his vehicle lost control and spun round and round in what must have been a terrifying experience for Breedlove. At the speed he was flying it took 6 miles to come to a complete stop. His best effort was 594 mph in 1965. Five years later the Blue Flame cracked the 600 mph barrier.

Congratulations to the Blue Flame team and their colleagues that helped design, construct and race this timeless vehicle.

As soon as I write these words, I find that additional records surpassing Gary Gabelich's have been produced, not at Bonneville but at Black Rock Desert, Andy Green's ThrustSSC being first to break the speed of sound, a jaw-dropping 760 mph.

For what it's worth here is the SEMA News account about the Blue Flame Day celebrated in three states. These are the proclamations honoring this event, from Wisconsin, Illinois and Utah.

Champion Brands Offers Free Oil Sampling Kits for Diesel Engines

10 days ago I wrote about the value of oil analysis and things you can learn regarding what is happening inside your engine. With oil analysis you don't need to guess. Or at least, you have more clues to make a hunch on. 

As we begin SEMA Week Champion Brands has announced that they wae offering WDs and MWDs two free oil analysis kits with every 10 cases of diesel engine oil purchased during the month of November. 

According to the announcement "the Champion promotion is limited to Champion’s Blue Flame, All Fleet-T Diesel, Premium Heavy-Duty, and Ultra-Fleet Diesel Engine Oils. Every 10 cases of quarts, gallons or pails purchased, is eligible for two premium Oil Analysis Kits - Part # BABX10 ($30 value each). The American Laboratory Service (ALS) Tribology Kits includes a pre-paid mailer, the laboratory processing of the used oil and internet access for personalized results."

According to Champion Brands Director of Racing and Performance, Karl Dedolph, “Your diesel pick-up, or diesel big rig can each benefit from oil analysis to know when to change the oil or to prevent catastrophic failure down the road."

As noted earlier, oil analysis measures engine wear without having to disassemble the engine. "Utilizing atomic emission spectroscopy, oil analysis reveals the amount of wear occurring within an engine and reports it in parts per million for each element,” added Dedolph. “For example, increasing levels of tin and lead indicate bearing wear and analysis can also reveal depleted additives, as well as contaminants such as water, coolant, fuel dilution and airborne dirt or sand.” 

You can read the full press release here.

Diesel enthusiasts and fleet managers use oil analysis for a short- and long-term analysis of the engine. When should the engine be rebuilt?  Can the engine go another 10,000 miles over-the-road without an oil change?

If Diesel Were a Political Candidate Would It Be. a Red State or Blue State?

A friend sent me this story from Diesel Technology Forum, analyzing diesel not based on its viscosity or pour point but on an imaginary political scale. Yes, this blog post is delivered in a lighter vein, in an effort to balance the battles taking place during this hotly contested political season. Since everything else has become political, why not speculation on the political aspirations of Diesel. No, not Vin Diesel, mind you, just a personified version of our diesel oil. 

The article is titled Choose Purple: If Diesel Were a Candidate, Would It Be Republican or Democrat?

You can see where this is going when you read the subhead:

Diesel reaches across the aisle - to be both the economically powerful technology to get the job done today while advancing the clean air and greenhouse gas reduction benefits needed to be a sustainable technology for tomorrow. It’s a solid shade of purple.

The article begins by describing the political climate we're in: polarized. And the author describes what we're looking for in a leader today, in terms any diesel enthusiast might enjoy.

What’s needed in a leader? A steady hand with proven performance, reliable, able to do the job at hand - having enough power and durability to withstand the rigors of leadership, and of course advancing policies and ideas that make sense and lead us forward. 

In our Red state vs. Blue state posture, many would see Diesel as a Red state candidate due to its being a fossil fuel. On the other hand, Diesel's efficiency -- near zero emissions -- and its ability to consume renewable biofuels turns this Red candidate into a Blue one. When you mix red and blue, what do you get?

After a brief explication, the author sums up in this manner:

In the end, Diesel reaches across the aisle - to be both the economically powerful technology to get the job done today while advancing the clean air and greenhouse gas reduction benefits needed to be a sustainable technology for tomorrow.  It’s a solid shade of purple.

I thought the story was fun. You can read the whole of it here:

Choose Purple: If Diesel Were a Candidate, Would It Be Republican or Democrat?

As for me, I won't make an issue of who you vote for, only that you condsider BLUE...

Did the Millennium Falcon use OBD-II?

“You’ve never heard of the Millennium Falcon? It’s the ship that made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs,” exclaimed Han Solo, starship pilot. We’re sure they had OBD-II. If dashboard’s ‘check engine’ light came on, Han Solo would have known what to do.

For years vehicle manufacturers have fitted on-board diagnostic (OBD) systems that provide codes to help identify specific issues. You can find the most recent diesel powertrain codes for Duramax, Powerstroke, and Cummins in the right column of this blog. (See the button Diesel Technical Bulletins.)  

But what are these systems and what do these codes mean? Put simply, an OBD system, or on-board diagnostic system, is an on-board computer fitted to your diesel engine that monitors the performance of your truck, including its powertrain, ignition, gearbox and emissions system.

When the truck’s on-board diagnostics system identifies a problem with the vehicle’s performance, it turns on a dashboard warning light and registers a code that identifies the issue.

This engine code, called a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC), is stored in the OBD-II system and can only be accessed by connecting a scan, or diagnostic tool into the OBD-II diagnostic socket and reading the DTC off the display of the scanner.

This light is to let you know that a possible fault has developed in the engine management system or another function and may require attention. When you see this appear, check your handbook for instructions on what action to take for your make and model of vehicle.

Diagnostic Trouble Codes, also known as engine fault codes, are five-digit codes that identify a particular problem in the car. These codes are displayed on the scanning tool when it’s connected to the OBD system.

The five-digit DTC includes one letter usually followed by four numbers (e.g. P1234). Each individual combination of letters and numbers relates to a specific problem within the car, whether a generic issue or a manufacturer-specific error.

A DTC won’t tell you which specific part of your car needs fixing or replacing, but it will tell you -- or your mechanic -- what you need to test in order to diagnose the issue. Within the five-digit DTC, one of four letters (P, B, C, U) always comes first and relates to the part of the car that has the issue: P - powertrain, B - body, C - chassis, and U - network.

The second digit (either 0 or 1) relates to whether it’s a general issue (0) or a manufacturer specific problem (1), while the third corresponds to the specific system with the issue, such as the ignition, and can be either a number or letter. The final two digits are numbers that relate to the specific fault description, and there is no pre-approved key to help decode these final two digits. 

“May the Force be with you,” --Obi-Wan Kenobi, the Jedi Master.

Who said “Diesel Engine Oil Doesn’t Break-Down"?

Diesel oil doesn't break down? Who said that? We don’t know for sure, but some understanding of oil shearing and viscosity loss makes you wonder what they were thinking. 

Let’s start with oil change regimens and extending drain intervals. Most diesel enthusiasts are more concerned with how long their engine last than how long their oil can last.

Messing around with drain intervals, though, has risks. Many who try extending drain intervals risk voiding their original equipment manufacturer (OEM) warranties. And even if you’re changing your oil at the intervals recommended by your OEM, it doesn’t guarantee that your engine’s protected. If you have issues with oil consumption, or oil dilution, your engine cannot be protected to the degree you might expect. 

What causes this breakdown to occur, and how can you ensure your vehicle’s engine is protected?

Understanding oil composition will give you an insight as to why engine oils break down over time. Motor oil is comprised of a basestock and additives. The additive package is designed to satisfy specific engine requirements. Additives, however, are like a bar of handsoap. They get used up over time. Toward the end of a drain interval, a lower-quality oil may drastically lose its ability to prevent wear. The constant heat, intense pressure and stress that is put on an oil causes it to impact these important chemical additives over time. 

One of these ingredients is the viscosity modifier. Viscosity modifiers compensate for the poor temperature response of base oil alone. Oils tends to get thinner at high temperatures and thicker at low temperatures. Viscosity modifiers are a critical component of nearly every engine oil.

The trouble is, under the intense heat and pressure inside a diesel engine, traditional viscosity modifiers break down over time. This is because the molecules that compose them are arranged in a linear coil shape, which is prone to breaking up as oil is squeezed between moving parts.

This deterioration of the viscosity modifier and the oil is referred to as shearing. Shearing can be a major issue for your diesel engine, because if an oil isn’t running at its specified viscosity, critical engine parts will be left without the protective layer of a lubricant. And when that happens, wear and corrosion can literally cause a catastrophic failure.

By understanding shearing and viscosity loss, it becomes clear why a standard diesel engine oil may not protect your vehicle as well as you think it will toward the end of its service life.

To keep your diesel engine protected through the entire length of its OEM-recommended or extended drain interval, it’s important to use a top-tier diesel engine oil with strong shear resistance and viscosity control. In addition, doing a periodic oil analysis (some recommend after every other oil change) can identify other potential problems that could drastically shorten your diesel engine’s life and result in costly repairs.
