Diesel Engine Care

Diesel engines are robust, but they aren't invincible! Issues can sneak up due to everyday wear or skipped maintenance, from pesky fuel injector clogs to turbocharger hiccups.

Diesel Maintenance Tips

Maintaining a diesel engine requires some specific attention compared to a petrol  (gasoline) engine.

  • Use Diesel Additives

    Diesel fuel additives can help improve fuel quality, clean the fuel system, and prevent gelling in cold weather.

  • Inspect the Turbocharger

    If your diesel engine is turbocharged, make sure the turbocharger is functioning properly. Check for any unusual noises or performance issues.

  • Check Glow Plugs

    Glow plugs are essential for starting a diesel engine, especially in cold weather! Test them regularly and replace any that are faulty for reliable starting.

  • Inspect the Exhaust System

    Diesel engines produce more soot and particulates. Regularly inspect the exhaust system for leaks or damage, and ensure the particulate filter (if equipped) is functioning properly.
