Cummins, Duramax, and Powerstroke Pickups
We repair the light-duty diesel pickups people in the valley drive:
- Cummins in Ram trucks
- Duramax in Chevrolet and GMC trucks
- Powerstroke in Ford trucks
Diagnostics, fuel systems, injectors, and the rest of the repair stay with one team. Gas cars and trucks are welcome too. See gas repair.
CP4 Failures and Injection Pump Repair
A hard start, a sudden loss of power, metal in the fuel filter, or a low fuel-pressure code can be an injection pump problem. On the Ford 6.7 Powerstroke, that pump is often the CP4.
We diagnose the fuel system before we replace parts. If a CP4 has sent metal through the system, we inspect the injectors, rails, and lines and explain what the repair takes before work starts. The same approach covers injection pump and fuel-supply problems on Cummins and Duramax pickups.
If the CP4 has not failed yet, two upgrades come up on the Ford 6.7. An S&S disaster prevention kit does not stop the pump from failing. It contains the metal debris if it does. An S&S DCR pump replaces the CP4.
Read CP4 failure on the Ford 6.7 Powerstroke and injection pump replacement for Wasilla trucks, or see fuel system testing and repair.
If the truck is showing those signs, stop driving it and call 907-414-8592. Say the truck, the symptoms, and that you are coming from Wasilla or another Mat-Su area.

Fleet Maintenance and DOT Inspections
Mat-Su businesses that run light-duty diesel pickups and gas work trucks can keep a mixed Cummins, Duramax, and Powerstroke fleet in one Palmer shop. Fleet maintenance and DOT inspections are part of that work.
A truck that is down costs the job. Scheduled maintenance, brake and suspension work, and a clear diagnosis when something fails are how we keep those trucks moving. See fleet services and commercial fleet maintenance for Wasilla.
