Diesel Engine Power Loss Repairs

Understanding Diesel Engine Power Loss

A diesel engine’s performance depends on efficient fuel combustion, proper airflow, and a well-maintained engine system. When power loss occurs, it can lead to reduced fuel efficiency, sluggish acceleration, and even complete engine failure. At Leavenworth Diesel Repair, we specialize in diagnosing and repairing power loss issues to restore your diesel engine’s performance.

Our Diesel Engine Power Loss Repair Services

At HP Diesel Repair in Leavenworth, KS, our certified technicians use advanced diagnostic tools to pinpoint and resolve power loss issues efficiently.

Clogged or Contaminated Fuel Filters

If your diesel engine lacks proper compression due to worn piston rings, cylinder head issues, or valve problems, it may struggle to start or not start at all.

Solution: We perform compression tests to diagnose internal engine problems and recommend necessary repairs.

Comprehensive Engine Diagnostics

We perform a full engine inspection, checking fuel pressure, airflow, compression, and electronic sensors to identify performance issues.

  • Scan for error codes in the engine control module (ECM)
  • Check fuel injection timing and pressure
  • Inspect turbo boost pressure and airflow sensors
  • Assess exhaust and emission control systems

Turbocharger & Airflow Optimization

A failing turbocharger or restricted airflow reduces engine efficiency. We inspect and repair:

  • Turbocharger seals and bearings
  • Intercoolers and air intake hoses
  • Mass airflow sensors (MAF) and throttle bodies
  • EGR valve cleaning and replacement

Engine Component Inspection & Repairs

If internal engine wear is causing power loss, we provide:

  • Compression testing to assess piston and valve condition
  • Cylinder head inspections & repairs
  • Timing belt & chain replacements
  • Cooling system maintenance to prevent overheating

Fuel System Cleaning & Repairs

Fuel delivery issues are a leading cause of power loss. Our services include:

  • Fuel injector cleaning & replacement to restore spray patterns
  • Fuel filter replacement to prevent clogs
  • High-pressure fuel pump inspection & repair
  • Fuel system flush to remove contaminants

Exhaust System & Emission Control Repairs

A clogged diesel particulate filter (DPF) or failing EGR valve can reduce power and fuel economy. Our services include:

  • DPF cleaning & regeneration
  • EGR system repairs & replacements
  • Catalytic converter inspection
  • Exhaust leak detection & repair
