Common Ford Powerstroke Diesel Systems We Repair

Ford Powerstroke diesel engines—including the 6.0L, 6.7L, and 7.3L platforms—are built for heavy work but have known diesel-specific systems that require expert care. Our technicians regularly diagnose and repair EGR systems that become restricted or fail, often leading to overheating or drivability issues. Oil cooler failures are another common concern, particularly on 6.0 Powerstroke engines. They can result in oil-to-coolant contamination if not addressed promptly. Newer Powerstroke engines rely on diesel particulate filter (DPF) systems to manage emissions, and regeneration issues can cause warning lights, reduced power, or poor fuel efficiency. Turbocharger wear or actuator failures can also lead to noticeable power loss and drivability concerns. Fuel system issues—including injector failure, high-pressure fuel pump wear, and FICM malfunctions—are frequent causes of hard starting, misfires, and excessive exhaust smoke. We also perform advanced diesel engine repairs such as head gasket replacement on high-mileage Powerstroke engines, using OEM or equivalent components and proven repair procedures. Every repair is approached as part of a complete diesel system, ensuring proper operation and long-term durability.
