To obtain representative cross section of exhaust smoke, three engines were studied to determine effect of certain fuel and engine characteristics on engines in over-the-road or highway operation; highly paraffinic or straight run diesel fuel with end point up to 625 F and cetane index between 45 and 55 will perform very satisfactorily in over-the-road operation.
