In a recent Shop Connection Blog post from Mitchell 1, the Commercial Vehicle Group offers tips on how to determine if diesel exhaust fluid has been contaminated with common vehicle fluids. It’s a quick tip, but contaminated DEF can damage system components and make the fluid ineffective.

Service tips, as well as product navigation highlights, can be found in the Shop Connection Blog, Mitchell 1’s newest communication tool, which offers solutions to everyday problems facing truck operators and maintenance personnel. The Shop Connection Blog for trucks can be accessed on the Mitchell 1 website at www.mitchell1.com/shopconnection/category/truck.
