By using electronic fuel injection instead of a carburetor, two updated welder generator models cut hydrocarbon and nitrogen oxide emissions by double digits.
By replacing the carburetor with electronic fuel injection (EFI), Miller Electric Mfg. Co. has managed to cut hydrocarbon and nitrogen oxide emissions by 33 and 27 percent respectively on each of two updated welder generator models, the manufacturer says. The Trailblazer 302 EFI and Bobcat 250 EFI are the only EFI engine-driven, twin-cylinder welder generators available in the industry, says Miller, improving claimed fuel economy up to 27 percent. Weld output and generator power is increased to 12,000 peak and 10,500 continuous watts on both multi-process machines, which offer stick, MIG, flux cored, AC/DC TIG and gouging capabilities.

The T880’s cab is 8 inches wider and the hood’s sculpted lines are smoother than what have been seen for 27 years on T800 trucks, like those at right. New complex-reflector headlamps are flush with fenders and use inexpensive halogen bulbs. As with all T-series Kenworths, the 880 has a setback steer axle.
