[Diesel-RVs] Re: Low Sulfur Diesel put into Ultra Low Sulfur Vehicle

DD- Don't sweat it. We have a 2007 emissions Cummins, and ran over a
full tank of LSD through it. It makes a larger amount of soot, which
accumulates inside the "Particulate Filter," AKA cataclysmic
converter. When the package of pyrometers/pressure sensor(s) on the
PF indicates a need, the computer will run a "regeneration cycle" that
runs PF exhaust temp up to 1100 degrees for 20-30 minutes, which burns
the particulates (soot) out thereby regenerating your PF. After 100+
gallons of LSD thru ours, the regen cycle kicked on and ran for about
20 minutes, then shut off.

Here is a link w/info on how the regen is indicated on our rig (and
how it could be better documented):

Hope this helps. Mike
