Active Regen & no-idle areas

For the most part you wont need a lot of Parked Regens.

 

You hear about CARB's blitz?

Cali's broke.....So come one...Come all....
Bring your Pre-CARB compliant rigs to
1400 Tenth St., Sacramento, CA, 95814


Park and idle there or.....

Go to
1001 "I" Street
Sacramento, CA 95814

Park and idle there as well....

Btw....Say hello to Mary Nichols for me...Won't you?

 

Technically that would be an exemption under the heading of, "Operating the engine in performance of maintenance, or performance of operation ". Just like Pneumatics have to run the engine to off load, or a concrete truck at a jobsite run to off load the product.
Whether the LEO knows anything about the operation of said Engine DPF filters is anybody's guess. You could show him the manuals that show what dash lites are lit during a manual regen. That might save a ticket, but some might just be looking to write a citation, so you'd have to go to court to get it taken care of.

 

If you got the certified clean idle sticker, you can idle all day in cali, at least that's what the carb guy said on the dave nemo show.

 

Make ##### sure the decal is legible......If the CARB Nazi's can't read it.....You'll get fined...

If your decal is in poor condition....Contact the engine manufacturer and they'll set you up with a new decal.....

Also....If you have EGR problems....As in the "Check Engine" message on your display....Get your rig into the shop....CARB does not excuse that situation....You might as well be driving a mechanical (Banned in Cali) rig.....

 

Yes. Thank the great state of Commiefornia.

 

Mechanicals aren't banned in cali, yet.

 

Every time I see them, they're checking to see if reefer units have ARB registration numbers and whether they are current, and don't even check the tractors that are idling.
