Diesel Basics and Maintenance

Unlike gasoline motors, your diesel engine doesn’t require ignition system tune-ups. Even so, there are still essential basic service points that your vehicle needs to run well.

Fuel Injection System

Most new diesels — those manufactured in 2010 or later — have a urea tank and injection system that cleans the nitrogen oxide (NOx) from the exhaust. This system functions much like the catalytic converter component of a gasoline powered car’s exhaust system and is important because NOx is the greatest exhaust pollutant released into the atmosphere. Periodically, you will need to have the urea tank refilled in order for it to continue working as it should.

Oil Changes

Additionally, you should have the oil and filter changed on a regular basis to ensure that the moving engine parts are well coated with oil that isn’t dirty or broken down. Degraded oil not only decreases efficiency, but it can also lead to damage over time if left unchanged.

Battery Checks

To meet the increased demand for cranking amps at start-up, most diesel trucks have two batteries. It is important to keep both of them checked and maintained.

Fuel Filters

Finally, you must change fuel filters often. Most diesels have two fuel filters. The primary filter is located between the fuel tank and the engine, while another cleans the fuel before it enters the engine. If you don’t replace these filters often enough, your fuel injection system will clog. Once that happens, you usually need an expensive repair to remedy the problem and get the vehicle working well again.
