THIRD QUARTER 2022
IN THIS ISSUE
How new standards for heavy-duty engine oils are being developed, windshield-mounted cameras earn a permanent exemption from FMCSA rules, and PITT OHIO’s Taki Darakos talks maintenance. The path forward can be a matter of new or improved, the alternative second-life of the diesel engine, and the expanding universe of trucking industry information technology.
The saying “Time flies when you’re having fun” could likely apply to developing new engine oils. And some time has passed since the last diesel engine oil category was introduced in 2017 when the American Petroleum Institute (API) announced CK-4 and FA-4.
Q&A
NEWS

COLUMNS
It’s not about the destination. It’s about the process. We’ve all heard that phrase in some fashion: in sports, learning a trade and even in developing a new oil category.
At the Low net-GHG Fuel and Engine Technology Symposium at the University of Wisconsin in June, researchers noted that the life of familiar internal combustion engines may be extended.

"The more things change, the more they stay the same. The mission of any maintenance shop is to repair vehicles as quickly and precisely as possible. There are scheduled maintenance needs sprinkled with the occasional emergency repairs. Efficiency is key. Those concepts will always stay the same.
With a view from the repair shop to the corner office, Calibrate offers more involved discussions into the trends and issues surrounding equipment and maintenance." - Michael Freeze, Features Editor, Transport Topics
