Abstract
Content
This study examines friction reducing and fuel economy improving performance of MoDTC with heavy duty diesel engine oil (HDDO) using several friction tests and fleet trucks. As a result, a fuel economy improvement of approximately 2 % was observed without any negative influence on the engines, and the friction reducing performance of MoDTC remained for more than 50,000km.
