CRC ENGINE DEPOSIT RATING TECHNIQUES--IMPROVEMENTS IN THE USA
A need to improve the precision of the methods for describing relative deposit levels found in internal combustion engine has prompted concentrated efforts through the Coordinating Research Council (CRC). New comparative color scales, uniform diesel piston rating environment conditions and an improved numerical system for rating diesel piston deposits are being developed. Improved methods of rating rust deposits are being studied. The method used to differentiate between various degrees of relatively light sludge deposits is also being re-evaluated. The paper represents a progress report on the CRC activity.
