Ethanol fuel n Sekab Etamax-D fuel n ED 95 denomination; not to be confused with E 85 (for gasoline engines) n It is an alcohol – no lubrication properties n Effects – Corrosion of plastics on high temperatures – Same tanks but with different ventilation – It’s a fuel – No drinking or washing

Engine DC 9 E 02 n Higher compression ratio 28: 1 vs. 17: 1 – Pistons, cylinder head valves and valve seats – New turbocharger with a waste-gate – Monorail PDE injectors with different injection volume – EMS calibration is for Ethanol fuel characteristics – Stronger starter due to higher compression
Modifications on Scania Ethanol Engine Larger fuel injection system Different engine management programming Ethanol resistant gaskets and sealings Different pistons to raise compression ratio
