Diesel Engine Specialists
Auto Specialty of Lafayette is one of the few auto repair shops in the area to provide both petrol and diesel auto repair. As certified diesel mechanics, we understand the intricacies of each diesel engine, including:
- Fuel Injectors
- Fuel Injector Pumps
- Turbos
- Fuel Lines
- Glowplugs
As the most complex part of a diesel engine, the fuel injector requires expertise to repair, remove, or replace. Frequently, fuel injectors are located in different places when compared to other diesel engines. This can make locating and replacing a diesel fuel injector more difficult and time-consuming. Most imported and domestic diesel-engine vehicles also require fuel injectors and parts that are specifically manufactured for their respective make and model. Comprehensive understanding of how a diesel engine works is the key to repairing them correctly.
Benefits of a Diesel Engine
Diesel engines have numerous benefits over standard gasoline engines. Unlike their gasoline-counterparts, diesel engines burn fuel more slowly, resulting in better gas mileage and a longer lasting engine. Diesel engines, on average, last several years longer than a standard engine that runs off gasoline, and some have even been known to last over 300,000 miles. Of course, Auto Specialty of Lafayette recommends that you perform routine truck and car maintenance of your diesel-engine vehicle to extend its life.
