Computer Diagnostics &
Check Engine Light Troubleshooting

Modern diesel engines rely on complex high-pressure fuel systems, turbochargers, and emissions sensors. If your truck is experiencing hard starts, loss of pulling power, excessive exhaust smoke, rough idling, or "Limp Mode," we use factory-grade scan tools to pinpoint the exact root cause before recommending repairs.

Fuel Injection & High-Pressure Fuel System Service

Contaminated fuel or worn components can quickly damage expensive diesel fuel systems. We test, service, and replace:​

  • High-pressure fuel injection pumps (including CP4 and CP3 systems)​

  • Diesel fuel injectors and return lines​

  • Lift pumps, water separators, and dual fuel filter replacements​

  • Fuel system contamination flushing and cleaning

DPF, EGR & Diesel Emissions System Repair

Issues with your truck's aftertreatment system can derate your engine and leave you stranded. We diagnose and repair:​

  • DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter): Forced regenerations, pressure sensor diagnostics, and DPF cleaning or replacement​

  • EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation): EGR valve and EGR cooler testing, cleaning, and replacement​

  • DEF & SCR Systems: DEF heater, injector, pump, and NOx sensor troubleshooting

Turbocharger, Intercooler & Boost System Repair

From sticking Variable Geometry Turbo (VGT) vanes and worn actuators to boost leaks in charge air cooler (intercooler) boots and up-pipes, we restore lost boost pressure and towing performance.

Cooling System, Head Gaskets & Engine Repair

Heavy towing puts massive thermal stress on diesel cooling systems. We handle water pumps, thermostats, radiators, oil coolers, glow plugs and controllers, serpentine belts, and upper/lower engine reseals.

Heavy-Duty Steering, Suspension, Brakes & Lift Kits

A heavy diesel engine takes a toll on front-end components. We eliminate "death wobble" and uneven tire wear with heavy-duty ball joints, tie rods, track bars, steering stabilizers, hydroboost brake repairs, and custom suspension lift kit installations.

  • Heavy-duty diesel oil and filter changes (meeting exact OEM API CK-4 / FA-4 specs)

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Diesel Service

How often should I change the fuel filters on my diesel truck?

​

Most Powerstroke, Cummins, and Duramax trucks require fuel filter changes every 10,000 to 15,000 miles (or every other oil change). Clean fuel filters and regular water separator draining are the #1 defense against costly high-pressure fuel pump and injector failure.

​

Can you diagnose a diesel truck that is in "Limp Mode" or shows a "Service Exhaust System" warning?

 

Yes. We perform full OEM-level diagnostics on DPF, DEF, EGR, and turbocharger systems to clear fault codes properly, perform forced regens when appropriate, and replace only the failed sensors or components.

 

Do you work on commercial diesel work trucks and local business fleets?

 

Absolutely. We partner with contractors, landscapers, agricultural operations, and commercial fleets across Lincoln and St. Charles Counties to provide priority maintenance and repair turnaround.

 

Do you perform Pre-Purchase Inspections on used diesel trucks?

 

Yes! Buying a used diesel pickup is a major investment. Before you buy, bring it in for our comprehensive Pre-Purchase Inspection so we can check for blow-by, hidden diagnostic trouble codes, fluid leaks, emissions tampering, and front-end wear.
