This is a time-tested EPA approach which increases cost and complexity due to enhanced engine management, exhaust recirculation and exhaust treatments, and partial hybrids.
The computers run heavy equipment diesels and you need a shop computer to successfully swap fuel injectors. Don't think about trying to swap exhaust treatment components without being the dealer, because serial numbers are tracked and enforced with huge core charges. Particulates are down dramatically.
Gassers are not diesels and gassers are already burning quite clean. From a societal health standpoint, is this where resources are best applied?
