The Diesel Podcast

Why Diesel Injector Sizing is Confusing Diesel injector sizing can get confusing fast. Percent over, hole size, liters per minute (LPM)—what do these ratings actually tell you, and how do you know which injectors are right for your build?

Lenny Reed from Dynomite Diesel Products joins us to break down the different ways diesel injectors are rated and why comparing injectors isn't always as straightforward as the numbers make it seem. We talk about what “percent over” actually means, flow ratings, injector sizing, and why choosing the right injector needs to match the horsepower goals and overall setup of your truck.

Whether you're building a Cummins, Duramax, or Power Stroke, understanding injector sizing can help you make better decisions before spending money on your fuel system.

Why Diesel Injector Sizing is Confusing
Modern diesel engines generate a lot of heat, and keeping that heat under control puts a huge demand on the cooling system. But how often should you actually change your coolant, and what happens when you leave it in too long?

Rislone joins us to talk about diesel cooling systems, proper coolant maintenance, and some of the common mistakes truck owners make. We discuss corrosion and contaminants that can build up over time, how coolant condition can affect heat transfer, best practices when changing coolant, and why maintaining the cooling system is so important on modern Cummins, Duramax, and Power Stroke engines.

Cooling System Mistakes That Can Hurt Your Engine
These types of filters can cause expensive damage to fuel systems.
Beware of these fuel filters #mechanic #diesel #powerstroke
Not all diesel fuel filters are created equal—and choosing the wrong one could affect your truck's performance, reliability, and even the life of your fuel system.

On this episode of The Diesel Podcast, we sit down with S&S Diesel Motorsport Chief Engineer Ian McGiffen to discuss what separates a quality fuel filter from the rest. We cover filter media, micron ratings, filtration efficiency, common marketing claims, and why two filters that look nearly identical can perform very differently.

We also dive into a common failure point on the 6.7L Power Stroke: the factory plastic fuel filter housing. Learn why it can crack, create fuel leaks, cause drivability issues, and why many owners are upgrading to a more durable solution.

You Could Be Buying the Wrong Fuel Filter
What diesel parts are actually worth buying? In this episode of The Diesel Podcast, we bring together Fleece Performance Engineering and Domestic Diesel, a California diesel repair shop, for a unique conversation about the parts they see every day and the problems truck owners face.

We discuss CP3 conversions, 6.0L Power Stroke replacement cylinder heads, electrical pigtails, common diesel truck failures, and how quality replacement parts can improve reliability. You'll hear both perspectives—the manufacturer designing the parts and the repair shop installing them on customer trucks.

Whether you own a Cummins, Duramax, or Power Stroke, this episode is packed with practical information to help you make smarter decisions when upgrading, repairing, or maintaining your diesel truck.

Diesel Upgrades Mechanics Actually Recommend
Not all diesel parts are created equal. In this episode of The Diesel Podcast, we sit down with Snyder Performance Engineering to discuss the growing problem of copied and counterfeit diesel parts entering the aftermarket.

We break down how legitimate American-made diesel components are reverse engineered, copied, and sold at lower prices, why quality often suffers, and what these knockoff parts can mean for the reliability of your Cummins, Duramax, or Power Stroke. We also discuss how counterfeit and low-quality replacement parts impact diesel truck owners, manufacturers, and the aftermarket industry as a whole.

The Diesel Parts Scam Costing You Thousands
Water in diesel fuel is more common than many truck owners realize, and it can lead to expensive fuel system repairs if it isn't properly managed. In this episode of The Diesel Podcast, we're joined by Hot Shot's Secret to discuss where water in fuel comes from, how it affects injectors, high-pressure fuel pumps, and other fuel system components, and what every diesel owner should know.

During the episode, we perform a side-by-side fuel demonstration using three diesel fuel samples: untreated pump diesel, diesel treated with a competing additive, and diesel treated with EDT. After the samples are agitated, they all appear identical—but once they settle, the results are dramatically different.

What's Hiding in Your Diesel Fuel? (This Test Was Shocking)
Pardoned mechanic tells us what it took to fix his case
Pardoned for deletes and it took THIS to fix it #mechanic #diesel #racing #automobile
A Presidential Pardon closed one chapter—but according to today's guest, the conversation about diesel emissions enforcement is far from over. On this episode of The Diesel Podcast, I sit down with Jon Achtemeier who was convicted of Clean Air Act violations, served four months in federal prison, and was granted a Presidential Pardon this July. Whether you own a Cummins, Duramax, Powerstroke, operate a diesel repair shop, or simply want to understand how federal emissions enforcement has affected the diesel industry, this episode provides a firsthand perspective from someone who lived through it.

He Went to Prison. His Warning for Diesel Truck Owners.
Does the EPA still enforce for deletes?
Pardoned mechanic tells truth about diesel deletes #mechanic #diesel #dieselengine
This week's guest shares his journey from working on diesel vehicles in the military to finally purchasing the Cummins truck he'd always wanted. We talk about why he chose a Cummins, the upgrades that transformed it into a dependable 500-horsepower daily driver, the parts he recommends, what he'd do differently, and the future plans he has for the truck.
