What We Work On

And, As importantly, What We DON’T.

it is our goal to be the best at what we do. 

In order to do that, we stick to what we know. This gives our customers confidence in our 

experience, skills, and recommendations. read on to learn more about what we work on!

7.3L

The 7.3L diesel engine was introduced in Ford pickups in 1989 through 1993, with the first iteration being an Indirect Injection (IDI). We no longer offer service on IDI trucks.


However, in 1994, Ford upgraded the 7.3L with direct injection and a turbocharger, with the first iteration of the Powerstroke. These engines are notoriously reliable, but underpowered compared to new standards. Nevertheless, they are a popular choice due to their reliability and lower initial investment. 


Common repairs include:

  • Oil cooler re-seal/replacement
  • Water pump
  • Fuel Injectors
  • Glow plugs/wire harnesses


We offer full services on all 7.3L Powerstroke engines.

6.0L

In late 2003, Ford introduced the 6.0L Powerstroke which featured a new high pressure oil system, a variable geometry turbocharger, and an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system. These trucks were incredibly popular, but were plagued with problems with virtually all of the new systems that were introduced. They continue to be a popular choice for those looking to get a diesel pickup for the first time, due to their low prices and prolific availability.


Common repairs include:

  • EGR & Oil cooler replacement
  • Cylinder head gaskets (with upgraded head studs)
  • High Pressure Oil pump and related components
  • Fuel injector replacement


We offer full services on all 6.0L Powerstroke engines.

Powerstroke

6.4L

From 2008-2010, Ford trucks rolled off the lot with the 6.4L Powerstroke produced by International. While we could go into extensive detail about our experience with these trucks, we will simply say that the 6.4L engine is THE most failure-prone engine that we have ever seen. When they run good, they run great…but when they go down, they go down hard. The good news is, there is no problem with this engine that we haven’t seen, and we are well-versed in diagnostics and repairs to get you back on the road quickly.


Common repairs include:

  • Full engine replacement
  • Fuel injection pump failure
  • EGR valve replacement
  • Turbocharger failure


We offer full services on 6.4L Powerstroke engines.

6.7L

The 6.7L Powerstroke was the first Ford-built diesel engine in their full-size trucks since the 6.9L was adopted from International Harvester in 1981. The 6.7L Powerstroke is an excellent engine, and has raised the bar in the light duty diesel pickup industry in terms of power output. Ford continues to lead the pack in factory HP and torque ratings, although they also lead the pack in purchase price. 




Common repairs include:

  • Serpentine belt
  • Crank Case Vent (CCV) filter
  • Oil pan re-seal
  • Turbocharger replacement


We offer full services on 6.7L Powerstroke engines.

Emissions Modifications

We do not modify or tamper with emissions components of any kind, for any reason, in such a way that would violate or prohibit the originially intended use and function.

Custom Tuning

We do not sell, install, or provide custom tuning/programming.

OEM Flash/Reprogramming

We do not flash or reprogram vehicle modules at this time. All re-flash or programming must be referred to a dealer.

Transmission Rebuilding

We do not rebuild automatic or manual transmissions; we perform the R&R, and sublet the rebuild to another supplier. We will perform transmission services and limited diagnostics, but will not perform repairs that go beyond the valve body. 

Engine Rebuilding

We do not rebuild engines. We will perform R&R, and purchase remanufactured long block and running complete engines from suppliers that offer a warranty. 

Body/Glass

We do not perform any auto body repairs or glass work. We will replace handles, mirrors, lights, etc and internal components such as switches, locks, etc

Fabrication

We do not provide custom fabrication services unless they are required to complete a repair that we otherwise would provide; this must be handled on a case-by-case basis and is billed by time and materials.
