Muskito

An Elon Musk fanboy/fangirl. They'll often force Elon into many completely irrelevant conversations as that's all they can basically talk about. They are often completely oblivious to the inherent problems in the real world that will cause many of Elon's ideas to fail.
A: "As a person who can easily ignore the QC problems in Tesla's cars, I can tell you that they drive very nicely."

B: "Jesus Christ, you are nothing more than a Muskito, in your eyes Elon is God and can do no wrong."

Leaktroit

Derogatory term for Detroit Diesel two-stroke Diesel engines, so named because they tend to consume lots of oil and leak oil. Some say that, on these engines, if you didn't have to add a gallon (or two, or three) of oil to the crankcase every time you stopped to get fuel, something was wrong.
Me: What engine do you have in your truck?
Truck driver: It's an old 12V92 Leaktroit. Thing drinks oil like breakfast but I still love it.

General Reposti

What people on Reddit say when they see a repost that one attempted to post as "original" content. Happens a lot on r/PrequelMemes but can be seen elsewhere too.
User A: (Sees a post with thousands of upvotes on the front page, then proceeds to post an exact copy of that "trending" post)

User B sees that it's a repost, and puts in the comment section "General Reposti"

NI🅿️🅿️🅰️

Yet another one of those minimally-offensive way of saying "nigga". A break from the tradition by using the 🅿️ emoji instead of 🅱️ emoji. Adds a little more spice to it.
Dude A: What up my ni🅿️🅿️🅰️

Dude B: AYYYY

DPF

Diesel Particulate Filter

The purpose of a DPF is to filter out particulate matter (a.k.a. black smoke) from a Diesel engine's exhaust, which consists of two distinct components, soot and ash. Soot is elemental carbon, which is the visible black stuff you see, and soot is the result of unburned fuel. Ash, on the other hand, consists of non-combustible metallic salts and is formed because engine oil contains many magnesium, calcium, and zinc compounds, and small amounts of oil are inevitably going to be burned along with the fuel.

A DPF is typically a big muffler with a ceramic honeycomb inside it that catches all this soot and ash and holds on to it. It doesn't let it out the tailpipe. It works well. But the problem is, it's a FILTER, and over time it's gonna get plugged. And once it's plugged up you now have an exhaust restriction, which is bad for your engine. It reduces your power, and you get all sorts of other problems. So how do you get the DPF to be clean again?

Many engines now have regeneration systems that spray fuel into the exhaust and blow air into it, then they light this fuel on fire so that the DPF can be heated to around 600°C in order for the soot be turned into carbon dioxide. This clears out the soot. Ash, on the other hand, is non-combustible and builds up in the DPF over time. Even during regeneration ash remains in the DPF and at some point you will have to wash the thing out or have it professionally cleaned in order to get rid of it.
From the year 2007 onwards basically all heavy-duty Diesel engines had to get a DPF in order to reduce particulate matter emissions, which lead to Diesel engine manufacturers ramping production up significantly in 2005 and 2006 so they could continue selling pre-DPF engines well into 2007.

zombie word

A word (or phrase) that has been overused or misused so much that it now has zero meaning whatsoever.
