Temporarily driving with dpf filter removed

2012 Kenworth T660 with the paccar 2010 epa engine.

After treatment is acting up again, imagine that. Forced to run with the stop light and severe derate, getting particulate trap pressure and egr Delta pressure this time. I think i might have to get the filter cleaned.

I'm not really getting enough down time available to down the truck. Thinking about possibly taking the dpf out so shop can clean it and trying to continue my deliveries while it's being cleaned. I wanted to ask if anyone has tried this. I am working exclusively in Wyoming so emissions isn't a problem here. (If only I could delete after treatment and still get work done at shop when needed)

I think I've seen that with the filter removed the exhaust gases increase to detrimental levels for engine. Seems like it should remove restriction and reduce temperatures in my mind. I suspect the computer will somehow register the filter is gone and could potentially turn fuel off completely. I'm not sure. Ideally it should drive just as horribly as it is right now, only 10psi boost. It's horrible to drive but it still gets the job done.

Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks for reading

 

Haven't pulled filter out yet. Trying to see if i can drive while it's being cleaned. Already running about maximum derate now i think so sensors not reading back pressure would only bother me if it completely shuts the truck down. I just don't know if it can damage the engine driving without the filter in or if the computer will completely shut down the truck

 

Not trying to delete. Trying to see if i can still drive with dpf temporarily removed for cleaning. I don't have time available to down the truck. I can force it if no other option but it's significant negative consequence for me to do so
