TransTech Energy is proud to offer a comprehensive line-up of the industry's best Propane Diesel Injection Systems, all of which we use in our own fleet of light and medium duty trucks. When you convert your vehicles to propane diesel injection, you'll benefit from:
- Better Mileage
- More Power
- Fewer Oil Changes
- Cleaner Emissions
- Extended Engine Life
What is Diesel Propane Injection? A very basic explanation would be this: A diesel motors combustion chamber burns in a very lean (higher % air than fuel) environment and can only burn around 75% of the diesel fuel injected into it. This leaves a high amount of oxygen and fuel (black smoke) that go right out your tailpipe. When we add Propane into the combustion chamber it helps clean things up a bit! The propane molecule is smaller than diesel and burns faster than diesel. Because of this the propane speeds up the combustion flame front in the motor.
Think of it as a fire... the big logs are Diesel molecules and all the little branches are the propane molecules. Once they catch on fire the little Propane branches spread the fire more evenly to all of the large Diesel logs. This process helps burn up more diesel fuel resulting in more power from the burning propane as well as the burning of the diesel that otherwise would have been unused. Now that we have gotten rid of that extra Diesel fuel the motor runs cleaner as well as having more power, but there is still some more unused air in the combustion chamber. Because of this we can add even more Propane to burn off in that extra unused air. This gives your motor more power and less-expensive power because it's from propane not from expensive Diesel fuel.
An added side effect to having such a cleaner burning fuel environment is that there is a dramatic reduction in particulates in the motor. These particulates are what slip by your piston rings and turn your engine oil black. With less of them being produced you can start to extend your oil change schedules because you have cleaner oil!
Propane Diesel Injection is a win/win scenario. You get a more powerful and lower cost of operating motor while our environment gets the benefit from cleaner emissions.
