If you have a fleet of trucks, monitoring coolant consumption is a best practice as it can be a good indicator problems should consumption suddenly spike without obvious signs that coolant is being lost.

Maintaining your cooling system is critical to extending the life of your diesel engine, which runs at a compression three times that of gasoline engines. The excess heat generated stresses the power plant. Our professionals will inspect your cooling system and repair any problems.

The most common place for leaks is along seams, whether it's the windows on your house, or the tubes and seals on your truck's radiator. A radiator expert can double-check the seams to make sure they're in good shape and prevent problems.

All diesel vehicles are going to be subject to a tampering inspection at the time of an emissions inspection. This type of inspection looks for the presence of properly fitted fuel tank caps, as well as the seamless operation of any emission control devices.

If you are using your pickup truck for transporting heavy objects like an ATV, bedroom furniture, or an appliance, then remember to always line the bed with old blankets for dent and scratch protection. Follow this up with some cleaning afterward using a soft bristled broom.

"The engine block must be kept relatively cool to avoid serious problems like overheating and seizure," the website wiseGEEK explains. "If the pistons cannot slide freely in their cylinders due to excessive friction, they will eventually snap and cause total engine failure."

Mismatched tires are not only costly but they can be a safety hazard! New tires can compensate for old tires resulting in uneven wear and potential blowouts, which could possibly cause a crash. Avoid mismatching your semi’s tires by replacing both pairs of tires on each axle at the same time.

If you see white smoke coming out of your stack, it’s a sign you might have a coolant leak. When the EGR cooler develops a leak, it allows coolant to escape in the exhaust, and as the coolant vaporizes it converts to steam or white smoke.

Sometimes, the coolant escapes into the engine or evaporates, leading to loss. If there is no coolant on the ground, and it’s reducing even when the truck is sitting idle, there could be a problem with head gasket.

If you have a truck with a diesel engine, pay close attention to the air filter. Because diesel engines use a lot of air, many truckers use a plastic indicator on the side of the air filter housing that changes color when the filter gets dirty, indicating it's time for maintenance.
