the engine will lose power and performance will be sluggish, much like 8030L when it is deprived of adblue.

the engine will lose power to compensate for the emission. the engine will not work as hard, such that it produces lesser emmision.

I've heard them on 7505, manage to locate it to under the last row of seats on the upper deck. I believe I saw sparks too, but I'm not really sure.

EDIT: To add on, I saw it slightly to the right (when facing toward the rear of the bus), approximately behind the seat nearer to the corridor.

Such sparks can be heard since the buses in the 1990s, especially the Volvo B10M MK4s. They come from the Sutrak air con units.

So does these Wrights use Sutrak air conditioning?

Those are different, this one I heard is throughout the trip. Means like every few seconds you will hear it..

I thought the next 2 Wrights are assigned to Ang Mo Kio depot???

Well, many are talking about the sparks and "piakking" sounds created by the A/C on Wright B9.... The main reason is this, when a A/C unit is new, there would be sparks and static sounds produced, as the A/C unit might also improve air quality by eliminating germs in the air.... It's common.... 7888K also had this syndrome before... But now, no more...

Indeed deploy 2 Wrights on 70! That's a "Leighman Brothers" investment!
