Rhys Pate Posted January 27, 2023 Report Share Posted January 27, 2023 New Flyer D40LF bus 1239 is very smoky. It needs service! 1239 will probably be retired when more 8350s are in service because it is one of the earlier 1000s. The bus above was not broken down, but it needs service. It was on route 4 when the video was taken. IMG_4300.MOV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than likely either oil or coolant is burning. The bus runs just fine, I had it not to long ago. A lot of Flyers from all blocks ranging from 1000 - 2029 burn oil from time to time.

Rhys Pate Posted January 28, 2023 Report Share Posted January 28, 2023 Okay, so 1000s often burn oil or coolant? Is there a harmful impact on the environment when this happens? Do other CTA buses that use diesel fuel do this often (7900s, 8350s, 4000s, or 4300s/4333s)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buses regardless of the current fleet in service generally will burn through oil and coolant after certain amount of time as components begin to age, some quicker than others and yes it is harmful to the environment but that's for any vehicle that isn't quote on quote "fully electric". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
