Low rail pressure is one of the most common cause of a limp mode in the 2001 – 2010 6.6 Duramax. DTC codes P0087, P0093 or P1093 may set due to low rail pressure. Low rail pressure could be caused by a restricted fuel filter, air in the fuel, a bad pressure relief valve, excessive… Read more »
This is not a review of specific products but includes suggestions for DIY vehicle owners to help reduce the number of parts you buy when trying to solve a problem. Read the codes, perform diagnostics, and look at the data. Good scan tools are expensive, if you are not making your living working on vehicles,… Read more »
A story of a failing rail pressure relief valve I was towing my boat to the coast for a fishing trip. The engine was running good, until I was on an uphill passing lane going around slower traffic. By the end of the passing lane, I had lost power and was down to 50 mph…. Read more »
Make the correct choice when you purchase injectors for your diesel engine. There are many injectors on the market today for diesel engines, some are new and some are rebuilt.

Determining the cause of turbo failures is important to keep the failure from reoccurring. We often disassemble turbochargers to determine why they failed. Once a turbo is disassembled and components are inspected it is easy to determine a cause. Turbochargers for most diesel applications rotate up to 150,000 rpm or higher, some applications may rotate… Read more »
There have been a number of studies about biodiesel and how it degrades over time. Most biodiesel blends, B5 or B20, that we see in Oregon are a FAME (Fatty Acid Methyl Ester). We have found biodiesel will often degrade enough in 1 year to cause fuel system damage. This is faster than the laboratory… Read more »
IQA Codes are entered into the ECM to improve control of the injected fuel quantity. The code applies over the entire programmed fuel map. The classification codes compensate for deviations in metered amounts, and make fuel quantity metering more precise. The adjustment codes also increase injector efficiency on the engine and improve emissions. Various engine… Read more »
The high pressure pump creates high pressure at low volume. Depending on the system, it is up to the high pressure limit valve, injector connector tubes, fuel pressure control solenoid and injectors to hold leakage and allow the pressure to build. A fuel supply side restriction will also cause low rail pressure. If the connector… Read more »
