Protecting Your Supply Chain (Now with Bok Choy Cookies!)

Reading Time: 3 minutesEvery Thursday I load up my cat in my bike basket and ride to the farmers market for some fresh produce. I use the afternoon to bake bok choy cookies for my drum circle, needless to say they are a big hit. This particular Thursday, I was riding home, a bike basket full of strange vegetables, when from behind, a diesel dually rolled past. The driver stomped the pedal and immediately engulfed me and my cat in a thick cloud of black smoke. Later my therapist informed me that “Rolling Coal” is what they call it, and diesels are not actually supposed to function like that.    Don’t Blame the Diesel Many people see this type of behavior and assume that diesel engines are extremely dirty and spew black smoke at will. This is not the case, you may only notice the trucks egregiously spewing black smoke, but the majority of diesels on the road are operating properly with barely a puff from the exhaust pipe. In reality, modern diesel fuel is highly refined to make it burn clean, and with

“I’ll Be Back”: Why Generator Engine Reliability Matters Most

Reading Time: 2 minutesHave you ever seen The Terminator? You know, the one with Arnold Schwarzenegger as an unstoppable robot? In the movie, he delivers the famous quote, “I’ll be back,” while walking through walls, surviving explosions, and taking the term industrial accident to a whole new level. Mesa’s engines take that idea and run with it. Not the industrial accident part, of course. In fact, everything we do is designed to help prevent accidents before they happen. We’re talking about the persistence behind that famous line. No matter what challenges come their way, Mesa engines are built to come back online and keep the power flowing when it matters most. Mesa’s engines may not be built to battle robots from the future, but they do share something with the T-800, and that is unwavering reliability. Like the Terminator, our generator engines are designed to handle demanding conditions and perform again and again. Anyone can build an engine that starts once. In fact, many manufacturers are successful at doing exactly that. The real challenge is building an engine that starts thousands of times
