Myth or fact: Starting in October 2027, heavy-duty trucks with on-board diagnostics will need Clean Truck Check testing four times a year. Comment MYTH or FACT, and we will post the answer tomorrow at noon.

Glow plugs help a diesel start by warming the combustion chamber before the engine fires. When one or more fail, you may notice long cranking, rough running right after a start or extra smoke.

Even with mild Los Angeles weather, early October mornings can dip into the upper 50s, and a weak glow plug system shows up first on those starts. We diagnose glow plugs and hard-starting problems on work trucks before they turn into a no-start. Call LA Diesel Repair, formerly S & S Diesel Repair, at 323-725-7016 or visit ladieselrepair.com.

Ram trucks with Cummins engines and Chevrolet and GMC trucks with Duramax engines both need fuel systems that stay clean and properly supplied. On Cummins trucks we handle lift pump, CP3 and emissions work, and on Duramax trucks we handle injector replacement and CP4 diagnosis.

Whatever badge is on the grille, we diagnose before we replace parts and give you a written estimate first. Healthy fuel systems also make less soot, which keeps the DPF and the rest of the emissions system happier.

Ford Power Stroke diesels are some of the most common work trucks we see. Each generation has its own weak spots, and the 6.0L, 6.4L and 6.7L engines all need a technician who knows them.

We handle Power Stroke head studs, EGR work and injector service, and we explain what your specific engine needs. Keeping these trucks healthy also keeps their emissions systems working the way California expects. Tell us which engine you have and how the truck is used, and we will take it from there.

The maintenance schedule in the owner's manual is a general guide. A truck that idles on job sites all day, tows every morning or makes short stop-and-go runs through East LA needs a different plan.

Tell us how your trucks are actually used, and we will set service intervals that fit. Good maintenance also keeps the emissions system healthier, which makes compliance testing a lot less stressful. We can also keep notes on each truck so the next visit starts where the last one left off. Call LA Diesel Repair, formerly S & S Diesel Repair, at 323-725-7016 or visit ladieselrepair.com.

The answer is up to 90 days before the deadline, according to the California Air Resources Board. That window gives you time to repair a problem if the truck does not pass. For diesel emissions repair in Montebello, call 323-725-7016.

Fleet managers and business owners need to justify every repair. That is why we provide written estimates before work starts, so you know exactly what is being done and why.

We also diagnose before replacing parts, and that matters even more on a fleet truck. Guessing wastes time and money on a vehicle that should be out earning. We handle engine, fuel, turbo, transmission and emissions work on Power Stroke, Cummins and Duramax trucks. If the estimate changes once the work is underway, we call you before going further. Call LA Diesel Repair, formerly S & S Diesel Repair, at 323-725-7016 or visit ladieselrepair.com.

Clean Truck Check lets owners submit a passing emissions test before their compliance deadline. How early can that test be submitted? Is it up to 30 days, 90 days or 180 days before the deadline? Comment your guess, and we will post the answer tomorrow at noon.

For a business, the repair bill is only part of the cost. The truck sitting in the shop is costing you money every day. Work trucks, service bodies and small fleets come through our bay every week, and we know downtime is the real cost.

When you bring a work truck in, tell us when you need it back. You will get a straight answer about whether that is realistic, so you can plan around it. Call LA Diesel Repair, formerly S & S Diesel Repair, at 323-725-7016 or visit ladieselrepair.com.

Work trucks that carry heavy loads through Los Angeles traffic and up grades put a lot of strain on their turbochargers. A failing turbo can cause lost power, whistling, oil leaks or extra smoke, and it can also affect emissions.

We diagnose and repair turbochargers on Power Stroke, Cummins, Duramax and Isuzu diesels, so your truck has the power it needs to get the job done. Catching a turbo problem early can also protect the engine and the DPF from oil and extra soot. Call LA Diesel Repair, formerly S & S Diesel Repair, at 323-725-7016 or visit ladieselrepair.com.
