DPF, What and Where Is It? How Does it Work? Should I Buy a DPF Delete Kit?
This is a inquiry we get a million times a day. Since 2007 all Dodge Cummins 6.7, Ford Powerstroke 6.4, and Chevy Duramax 6.6 trucks come from the factory equipped with a particulate filter to meet tougher emissions standards. What is this filter? What does it do? And can I remove it? More information: click here

Looking similar to an exhaust silencer diesel particulate filters work by forcing engines gasses to flow through a complex ceramic honeycomb structure. Cummins DPF. Because the channels of the filter are blocked at alternate ends, the gasses are forced to flow through the cell walls in order to exit the filter and because the cell walls are porous, the gasses are allowed to pass through, but the particulate matter is deposited on the walls. This ensures that only the clean exhaust gasses can exit, and the particulate matter is trapped in the filter.
