1995 Orion V CNG Posted November 24, 2014 Share #1 Posted November 24, 2014 Is there a reason why the DD50 EGR and DD50G EGR both got discontinued a few years ago? I figured that the EGR component was an epa add on to reduce toxic emissions, so why discontinue it? The Series 50 only been in production for about 12 years or so (1993-2005).

Fresh Pond Posted November 25, 2014 Share #7 Posted November 25, 2014 Detroit discontinue the series 60 since it is not compliant to EPA 2013 standards. Ok so it was fully discontinued, that's for clearing that up. So that must mean the DD13 replaced it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
