MTU bought Detroit Diesel in 2000 and merged it. MTU descended from Maybach and included a partnership with Mercedes Benz. In German the initials are roughly “Motor and Turbine Union”. Detroit Diesel developed the 2000 and 4000 series engines for MTU in 1994.7CEXL019.AAD is an EPA number for identifying exact engine sub families from Tier 1 onwards. It is coded with info like a car’s VIN is and is in addition to the maker’s broad, long running family names. Interestingly this one does come up as a Cummins engine. It may just be that Brookville stamped the serial and date on an available plate, tacky. Bill |
