I am toeing the party line and have my own view too. 

Good job too!

Pay attention at the back, it's not about carbon emissions it's about particulate and NOx emissions. If you downrate the power  by reducing fuelling then there is less heat in the combustion so even with excess air NOx is not formed and because the mix is always ultra lean less particulates form. Look at how tweaked diesels push out black smoke, well it's the opposite of that.

 

At the Ae machinery course I got marked down for pointing out that the Valmet forwarder was over fuelling as it came under load and pushed out black smoke, Stuart told me not to be silly, how things have changed in 20 years

Works just got a couple Forst TR8D55 , and they're absolute animals 

 

Personally I'd take diesel over petrol any day 

I didn't know fixings companies ran chippers...

I wonder if you really lit fires with tyres @Stubby, any fule knows that diesel doesn't work as well as petrol, and remember to pick the wire out of the ashes.

Have to love the "ping ping" noise as the wires are burning out. Especially on lorry or tractor tyres.

Yes, but having lower horsepower means if takes longer to chip up than it did before, therefore running the chipper for longer, therefore putting out the same amount of carbon !

It's like when the eec  told us our kettles were too powerful., so haveing a kess powerful kettle took longer to boil, therefore using the same energy as the higher wattage one.

I never knew that kettles had been regulated against as well

Thanks for all the input.  

Just surprised there are not more users of the new 25hp machine replying to this post.
