we drove down from Wisconsin to take care of my mother in laws estate and on the way down our truck made a clunking noise a couple of times most likely from the heat I called and set up an appointment for service and after looking into it they found that all it was dirty fluid and a dirty screen so they replaced the fluid and cleaned the screen and it runs smooth as new they did not try to sell me on unnecessary parts just took care of my problem I we would not hesitate to take our vehicle back 100% satified

If your vehicle breaks down and you have to be towed make sure you are aware of proper steps to protect your vehicle's transmission. The vehicle’s configuration determines how it should be properly towed to avoid transmission damage. Specifically, it matters if your vehicle is front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive and whether it’s an automatic or a manual.

Your car’s fuel system works with the rest of the engine control system to deliver the best performance with the lowest emissions. Check your car’s fuel system regularly or immediately if you smell gas or suspect a problem.

What does it do? - The fuel system transfers fuel from the fuel tank and passes it through a fuel filter for straining before it arrives at the injectors. A pressure regulator controls fuel pressure to ensure good engine performance under a variety of speed and load conditions. Fuel injectors, when activated, spray a metered amount of fuel into the engine. Some vehicles use a return line system to return unused fuel back to the tank.

The fuel system is an integral aspect of any combustion engine, but it’s particularly important on diesel trucks. Your Ford, Dodge, or Chevrolet pickup requires a perfectly functioning fuel system, devoid of buildup, leaks, and debris, to provide you with the most powerful and efficient engine performance possible. At Citrus Transmission & Auto in Homosassa, we understand that fuel system flushing is an essential process in maintaining a properly functioning engine.

Most commercial diesel engines these days are turbocharged. Turbos dramatically increase power and efficiency, particularly on diesel engines, which makes them a must-have item on engines that rely heavily on both. However, sometimes issues arise in turbo systems; at Citrus Transmission & Auto in Homosassa, we can fix that.
