    No. That would require lines 3 and 4. It is in service of the truck. In addition to breaking the 34 hour reset.

    You might as well skip PC and just use regular drive status, going on duty to fuel will interrupt your 34 hour reset.

    How much time left on the break?

    What size tanks? What is the gauge reading?

    If you’re idling you can probably assume about 1 gallon per hour, unless a regen is involved where that will shoot up to about 4.

    No way I'd change duty status for that. Just put in 5 gallons from a container and use PC to make it happen.
