Question about electric and diesel apu

You can idle your truck. I ran pneumatic cement etc and that requires truck to be running for the pto and blower. Best to idle up a bit as I think it runs cleaner that way. Not idling for a long time of course is better yet.
Truck will clean out the system when you drive off if it is working properly. But it can't clean it perfectly in it's own. Or if you do not go anywhere that cares, delete it.
Here is what keeps my dpf perfectly clean. Took it out at 550k miles and it did not need cleaned. I put Lucas Deep Clean in a tank of fuel about every 3 months or so. It costs 65 bucks for a bottle but will save you a lot of money. You still need to clean the sensors once in a while.

Operations that require truck running to operate the loading and unloading. Tankers for instance.[/QUOTE]

 

It's well known that idle is bad for emissions as stated above.

But lotsa local operations require running truck to load unload.

My last job was tanker. Most of my loads required vacuum to load up. And pressure to unload.

Wet kits and pneumatic and pump require running truck. Most decent companies have newer trucks.

 

Gotcha now it's been so long since I've been in a truck that had to operate something via a PTO I went brain dead Lol

 

What kind of a/c window do you have? Basically you use that when you're sleeping?

 

GE, just a small home window unit. Run it on a Honda generator. Works good, just kind of a pain in the butt.
I just unhooked the positive cable from the battery seperator and hooked it to a battery instead, left the BMS on start and auxillary hooked up. Dont think it matters any.

It's better than sweating your cojones off at night! So how did you mount the unit? Did you have to cut a hole in the cab or something?
