The LLY Duramax, used in 2004 and 2005, is known for running hot under heavy load, and some of these engines have had head gasket problems as a result. Towing up long Hill Country grades on a warm afternoon is exactly the kind of work that tests a cooling system.

If you drive an LLY, keep an eye on the temperature gauge when towing, keep the radiator clean and make sure your coolant is in good shape. Loss of coolant with no visible leak or white smoke from the exhaust are signs to get it checked right away. We handle cooling system repairs and head gasket replacement with pressure testing. Call 2W Diesel at 512-738-3815 or request a quote at 2wdieselrepair.com.

The 6.4 liter Power Stroke, used in 2008 to 2010 Super Duty trucks, was the first Power Stroke to use a diesel particulate filter. That filter traps soot from the exhaust, and the truck cleans it on its own through a process called regeneration.

For 6.4 owners, the best habit is to let those cleaning cycles finish and to avoid lots of short trips with long idling. If your truck regenerates more often than it used to or shows an aftertreatment warning, bring it in. We repair DPF, DEF and regen systems and can find the cause. Our shop is closed on weekends, but our 24 hour emergency line is there for roadside and on-site repairs. Call 2W Diesel at 512-738-3815 or request a quote at 2wdieselrepair.com.

Would it be crazy to do?

The answer is 1989. That first 5.9 liter Cummins made 160 horsepower and 400 pound feet of torque, and the partnership has continued for more than 30 years. Whether yours is a 5.9 or a 6.7, call 2W Diesel at 512-738-3815.

The 5.9 liter Cummins powered Ram trucks for nearly two decades, from the simple mechanical engines of the early years to the later common rail versions. Plenty of them are still working hard around Spring Branch and Canyon Lake with a lot of miles on the odometer.

High mileage trucks reward good habits. Keep up with oil, fuel filters and coolant, listen for new noises, and watch for oil leaks or a drop in power. If your older Cummins is starting to show its age, we handle everything from routine maintenance to in frame and out of frame rebuilds, all in house. Call 2W Diesel at 512-738-3815 or request a quote at 2wdieselrepair.com.

Just let it ride?

It is time for some diesel trivia. In what year did the very first Cummins powered Ram pickup hit the road? Comment your guess, and we will post the answer tomorrow at noon.

The very first Duramax, the LB7 used from 2001 to 2004, was a big step forward in diesel technology, but it is widely known for fuel injector problems. Many of these trucks have already had their injectors replaced at least once.

Signs of injector trouble can include rough running, extra smoke, hard starting or a rising oil level on the dipstick. If you own an early Duramax or are thinking about buying one, it is worth having it checked. We offer injector service and replacement along with computerized diagnostics to find the real problem. Call 2W Diesel at 512-738-3815 or request a quote at 2wdieselrepair.com.

The 6.0 liter Power Stroke, found in 2003 to 2007 Ford Super Duty trucks, has a well documented history of oil cooler and head gasket problems. That does not mean every 6.0 is trouble, and many have been repaired and run well for years.

The key with a 6.0 is paying attention. Watch your coolant level, keep an eye on engine temperature when towing, and do not ignore a sudden loss of coolant or white exhaust smoke. Regular coolant and oil service goes a long way. If something seems off, our technicians can diagnose it and give you an honest price before any work starts. Call 2W Diesel at 512-738-3815 or request a quote at 2wdieselrepair.com.
