Cummins Diesel: Performance, Durability, Legacy

Cummins has earned its reputation as a leader in the diesel world, respected by truck owners, fleet managers, and diesel pros for over a century. Founded in 1919, Cummins engines are known for rugged reliability, serious torque, and long engine life. Built to handle tough jobs and high mileage, they’re a top choice for both personal and commercial diesel drivers.

From classic mechanical builds to modern emissions-equipped platforms, Cummins delivers performance that lasts, and demands expert care to match.

Popular Cummins Models We Service:

  • 5.9L 12V & 24V – Legendary early Dodge Ram diesel engines known for durability and mechanical simplicity.
  • 6.7L Turbo Diesel – Found in Ram 2500/3500 pickups, offering excellent towing power and modern emissions systems like DPF and EGR.
From hauling heavy trailers to daily commuting, these engines are designed to work, and we’re here to keep them working.

Top Cummins Problems We See, and Fix

Even great engines need expert care. Our team is trained to identify and solve Cummins-specific diesel problems, including:

  • Fuel System Failures: Worn injectors, CP3/CP4 pump issues, or fuel contamination can cause hard starts, misfires, or engine knock.
  • Turbocharger Problems: Power loss, smoke, or whistling often points to a failing VGT, especially in 6.7L engines.
  • EGR & DPF Issues: Soot buildup in emissions components can reduce performance, fuel economy, and trigger warning lights.
  • Head Gasket Failures: Coolant loss or overheating under load may signal a failing head gasket.
  • Electrical & Sensor Failures: Faulty MAP, MAF, IAT, or fuel pressure sensors often disrupt performance in modern Cummins trucks.
