Whether you’re pulling heavy loads through the Rockies or running a hard-working fleet, we’re the shop that gets your Ford back in action, fast, right, and built to last.

Powerstroke Diesel: Built to Haul, Repaired to Last

Ford’s Powerstroke engines are built for hauling, towing, and serious diesel performance. From early 7.3L workhorses to the modern 6.7L platforms, these engines offer high torque and heavy-duty reliability, but they also come with unique service needs.

First launched in 1994, Powerstroke diesels have evolved from mechanical simplicity to complex, emissions-equipped designs. That’s why accurate diagnostics and diesel-specific expertise are key to long-term performance and uptime.

Popular Powerstroke Models We Service:

  • 7.3L Powerstroke – Known for reliability and longevity in early Ford Super Duty pickups.
  • 6.0L Powerstroke – Commonly seen in 2003–2007 trucks, with known issues requiring specialized attention.
  • 6.4L Powerstroke – Compound-turbo design, strong performance but prone to emissions and fuel system problems.
  • 6.7L Powerstroke – Modern, high-powered diesel platform found in late-model F-250, F-350, and F-450 trucks.
  • 3.2L & 3.0L Powerstroke – Found in Transits and F-150s, known for fuel economy and electronic complexity.

From job site pickups to diesel family haulers, we service Powerstroke engines of all sizes and generations.

Powerstroke Trouble Areas We’re Known for Fixing

Even tough engines like the Powerstroke need expert care. Our team is trained to solve the most common and complex issues, including:

  • High-Pressure Oil System Failures: Especially on 6.0L and 7.3L engines, failed HPOP systems can cause hard starts or stalling.
  • EGR & Oil Cooler Clogs: A notorious weak point in 6.0L and 6.4L Powerstrokes, leading to overheating and head gasket damage.
  • Injector Failures: Misfires, rough idle, or white smoke often signal worn or leaking fuel injectors.
  • Turbocharger Problems: Whistling sounds, laggy acceleration, or excessive smoke can mean turbo wear, common on 6.4L and 6.7L.
  • Sensor & Wiring Faults: Powerstrokes are loaded with electronics. Failed ICP, IPR, or cam sensors often mimic larger issues.
  • DPF & SCR System Issues: Later models require expert service for emission systems like diesel particulate filters and SCR injectors.
