Quiz: its an acronym- generic term related to emissions

Know what it is?

Diesel Emissions Fluid? (link (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AdBlue))

Interesting- wikipedia goes by diesel emission fluid, where generally the term is diesel exhaust fluid. DEF is the common product name for the additive in SCR tx, Urea Solution is the chemical name, Adblue is the German auto industriy's trade name, and in North America we'll see trade names like Terra-Cair and C-blue.

Pilot Truckstops says about 100 of their locations will have dispensing systems by mid 2009. Petro/TA said yesterday that they'll be ready when the 2010 equipped trucks appear. Gallon jugs should start showing up in 2009 also.

One thing to note- it freezes at 12 degrees, and decomposes at 86 degrees.
