• Abstract:
  The Texas Department of Transportation ; (TxDOT) operates a large fleet of on-road and ; off-road equipment. Consequently, fleet ; maintenance procedures (specifically preventive ; maintenance such as oil changes) represent a ; significant cost to the agency. TxDOT currently ; uses a preventive maintenance schedule ; dependent on simple variables such as vehicle ; miles or operational hours logged. However, ; with newer engines and vehicles that are ; equipped with onboard diagnostic systems, ; there is the possibility of tracking these ; parameters or performance measures over time ; and correlating them to oil degradation levels to ; determine the need for preventive maintenance.
