FTM Dispatch

Invented by Clessie Lyle Cummins (1886-1968), this device (produced by the Jacobs manufacturing company since 1961) has contributed significantly to highway safety.

They are too loud because they open the exhaust valve at full compression, when there is high pressure, probably on the order of 20 atmospheres, inside the cylinder. This tends to be loud.

For most people, engine braking is a given in vehicles; but the truth is only gasoline engines have engine braking. Diesel engines do not have the same braking mechanisms as gasoline engines, instead they have two different mechanisms; the first is compression release engine brake, which is commonly known as Jake brake, and the exhaust brake. The main difference between the two is in how they operate. A Jake brake creates braking force by releasing the compressed air inside the cylinders. In contrast, an exhaust brake blocks the path of the exhaust, causing an increased pressure in the exhaust manifold.

One of the most misconstrued topics in the diesel world is how emissions equipment impacts your truck. Many people believe that deleting your DPF will enhance your truck’s performance and help solve DPF/EGR failures. Well, the data around these systems has been building up for quite some time.

Finding a Shop to Help You
Once you’ve deleted your emissions, you will be hard-pressed to find a franchised dealership to assist you. They don’t want the liability of working on removed emission equipment, and they have no way to warranty the work. That means you are now on your own to find a qualified independent facility that will work with you. As most of you know, seeing these on the open road can be difficult at best, even if the engine problem you are having has nothing to do with your tune or delete.

Reselling Your Truck
If you are ever thinking about selling or trading your truck in, you will more than likely run into issues. If you do sell it with deleted components, the person that purchases your vehicle or takes it on trade has a legal case against you. You performed an illegal modification and didn’t notify the buyer; you are opening yourself up to lawful (and costly) matters. You will more than likely need to restore all deleted components to their original configuration at your expense. Even bringing your truck to an auction doesn’t take you off the hook, as the person below noted in a forum. You’ll often find law enforcement showing up at public auctions to ensure no shenanigans are happening.
