Episode Description from the Publisher

A Presidential Pardon closed one chapter—but according to today's guest, the conversation about diesel emissions enforcement is far from over. On this episode of The Diesel Podcast, I sit down with Jon Achtemeier who was convicted of Clean Air Act violations, served four months in federal prison, and was granted a Presidential Pardon this July. Whether you own a Cummins, Duramax, Powerstroke, operate a diesel repair shop, or simply want to understand how federal emissions enforcement has affected the diesel industry, this episode provides a firsthand perspective from someone who lived through it.
