I guess you are talking about common rail direct injection. We have had that with the Duramax since 2001, the Cummins ISB since 2003, the 6.4 Powerstroke since '08.

The EU diesels have run on ULSD for a while because of the mandate for it for the last 10 years or so ( the folks overseas can give an accurate answer ), but we didn't go ULSD until 2007. Since that time, the emission compliant diesels, well the few that they will let in by the aforementioned OEMs, have been sold here.

Any of the diesels that the EU has can run here without a problem.
