The Cummins ISL is a straight-6 diesel engine designed and produced by Cummins. It is 8.9 liters in displacement, and went into production in 1998. The engine was based on its 8.3 liter predecessor, the Cummins C8.3 engine.
The '''[[Cummins]] ISL''' is an 8.9 litre, inline six cylinder diesel engine. Introduced (for buses) in 1999, the ISL was designed to bridge a gap in Cummins' line of engines that the discontinuation of [[Cummins L10|L10]] had left, however it is not a direct descendant of the L10 and has more in common with the ISC.


By late 2003, Cummins announced that they will revise the engine to sport a High-Pressure Common-Rail (HPCR) system to help with emissions and also a variable geometry turbocharger system to help with the performance on this engine.
The CNG-fueled [[Cummins L Gas Plus|L Gas Plus]] was based on the ISL's 8.9 litre block. It was replaced by the [[Cummins Westport ISL G]] in 2008.


The Cummins ISL also has a sister engine which is based on the existing ISL 8.9-liter block which runs on compressed natural gas. Cummins reintroduced this engine as the L Plus engine which has a power rating of 330 horsepower (246 kW), and it is for 60-foot (18 m) articulated bus. A few thousand units of this engine are now operating in a wide variety of applications.
The EPA 2004 compliant ISL was introduced in October 2002 and met the limits of 2.5 g/hp-hr of nitrogen oxide (NOx) and nonmethane hydrocarbons (NMHC) and 0.1 g/hp-hr of particulate matter. Cummins updated the ISL with a High-Pressure Common-Rail (HPCR) injection system and a variable geometry turbocharger to improve the performance of the engine.<ref>[http://www.diesel-service-parts.com/cummins-isl.html Helpful Cummins ISL Information], dieselserivceparts.com.

The ISL is not to be confused with the older L10 series, which Cummins had produced and sold from 1982 to early 1998. The old L10 series, which like the current ISL, had seen use in the applications listed above (plus, early Dennis double decker buses), displaced 10.0 liters, was slightly larger, and had been replaced by the M11 entirely in 1994, although the natural gas version, known as the L10G, had hung on until the spring of 1998.
The EPA 2007 standards set a limit of 0.01 g/hp-hr of particulate matter. The ISL features a particulate filter and a crankcase coalescing filter to control emissions. During the phase-in period between 2007 and 2009, Cummins produced 50% of their engines to meet EPA 2010 regulations. The EPA set 2010 NOx emission at 0.2 gr/hp-hr. Cummins employed selective catalytic reduction (SCR), which was already used in Europe to meet the Euro 4 levels, to reduce NOx emissions.

The Cummins ISL is an 8.9 litre, inline six cylinder diesel engine. Introduced (for buses) in 1999, the ISL was designed to bridge a gap in Cummins' line of engines that the discontinuation of L10 had left, however it is not a direct descendant of the L10 and has more in common with the ISC.

The CNG-fueled L Gas Plus was based on the ISL's 8.9 litre block. It was replaced by the Cummins Westport ISL G in 2008.

The EPA 2004 compliant ISL was introduced in October 2002 and met the limits of 2.5 g/hp-hr of nitrogen oxide (NOx) and nonmethane hydrocarbons (NMHC) and 0.1 g/hp-hr of particulate matter. Cummins updated the ISL with a High-Pressure Common-Rail (HPCR) injection system and a variable geometry turbocharger to improve the performance of the engine.[1]

The EPA 2007 standards set a limit of 0.01 g/hp-hr of particulate matter. The ISL features a particulate filter and a crankcase coalescing filter to control emissions. During the phase-in period between 2007 and 2009, Cummins produced 50% of their engines to meet EPA 2010 regulations. The EPA set 2010 NOx emission at 0.2 gr/hp-hr. Cummins employed selective catalytic reduction (SCR), which was already used in Europe to meet the Euro 4 levels, to reduce NOx emissions. Cummins announced on January 8, 2010 that the ISL9, as it is now known, received EPA 2010 certification.[2]
