Diesel Engines – How Are They Different

Diesel engines are engineered for torque, durability, and efficiency, but they also require a different level of care than gas-powered ones. From high-pressure fuel systems to complex emissions components, such as EGR valves, DPFs, and DEF systems, diesel trucks are powerful machines.

Skipping oil changes, ignoring warning lights, or using incorrect parts can lead to costly downtime and severe damage. Our diesel repair shop in Riverton, WY, uses premium parts and dealer-level equipment.

At Wind River Auto & Diesel, we provide a full range of diesel maintenance, repair, and performance services. Whether you need a quick oil change or help diagnosing a stubborn engine issue, our team is ready.

Diesel FAQs

  • What is DEF fluid, and why does my diesel truck need it?

DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) is used in trucks with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems to reduce emissions. It helps break down nitrogen oxides in the exhaust stream. If you run out of DEF, your truck may go into limp mode or refuse to start until it's refilled.

  • My diesel truck is losing power…what could be wrong?

Power loss in a diesel could be caused by a clogged DPF, a faulty EGR valve, a boost leak, fuel injector issues, or even bad sensors. Let us perform an inspection and diagnostics to figure out what’s wrong.

  • Is diesel fuel treatment necessary?

It’s a good idea to use a winter diesel additive to prevent fuel gelling and improve injector lubrication. This is especially important if your truck sits for extended periods or if you rely on it in sub-zero temperatures.
