Diesel Truck Maintenance Guidelines
Your truck maintenance schedule is more than a suggestion. It’s good business practice. You need to keep your diesel fleet moving at an effective pace. To maximize your fleet’s value, it must be in the best working condition.
Living in the Phoenix AZ area, we deal with high heat conditions that affect diesel truck longevity in many ways. It really pays to regularly service your vehicles to combat the effects of heat on the engine, transmission, suspension, transfer case, and every other important system.
The experts at our diesel truck repair shop are ready to be your ally in maintaining your fleet. It’s a matter of fuel efficiency as well as vehicle longevity. Maintenance and good repairs also ensure safety for your crew and any products or equipment you move.
Coolant Strength
Phoenix AZ heat is definitely an enemy to a truck’s coolant strength. In general, the coolant should be refilled after 15,000 miles or 600 hours of driving. Our heat conditions require that drivers keep an even closer eye on the mixture.
During regular maintenance or an oil change, your Rodeo Ford technician will do a coolant check. We can make sure the coolant mixture and liquid level are correct.
Engine Oil and Fuel Filter
Changing the engine oil and filter regularly is important for all vehicles. For diesel engines, it is essential. This is especially important when it comes to the trucks that work for us daily.
In the busy Phoenix AZ area, we have to deal with frequent long idles and stop-and-go driving. When you add that to our high heat summers, regular oil changes are clearly vital.
Old oil has a sludge-like quality that prevents it from doing its job. It can’t lubricate the parts that are vital to the engine’s ability to create power. On the other hand, new oil keeps the engine seals as soft and pliable as possible. This helps prevent the conditions that often lead to leaks.
The fuel filter is a vital part of diesel engine repair and maintenance. By cleaning the fuel, it rids it of the contaminants that can become dangerous to the system. After all, the fuel pressure is as high as 36,000 PSI.
