A well-maintained fuel system is essential for ensuring optimal vehicle performance, fuel efficiency, and engine longevity. Over time, components like injectors, filters, and pumps can wear down, leading to reduced power, increased emissions, and potential engine damage.

Whether it’s cleaning injectors, replacing filters, or repairing pumps, our team is committed to keeping your diesel engine in peak condition. Call now or book your service online!
Faulty injectors can cause engine misfires, poor fuel economy, and reduced power. Our mechanics in Melbourne repair or replace injectors with precision to restore peak engine performance.
A malfunctioning fuel pump can disrupt fuel delivery and impair engine functionality. Our mechanics provide fast and reliable repairs, minimising downtime.
Fuel filters remove contaminants from the fuel before it enters the engine. Over time, filters can become clogged, leading to poor engine performance and potential damage. Regular filter replacement is essential for maintaining system health.

Whether it's a sensor malfunction, fuel delivery problem, or contamination issue, we’ll provide a detailed diagnosis and a clear solution.
Our injector cleaning and servicing services use specialised equipment to restore your injectors to their optimal condition. This helps improve fuel atomization, reduce emissions, and enhance overall engine performance, saving you on fuel costs.

mr sugi27 March 2024 They did a pre purchase inspection for me. Very quick and efficient, it saved me buying a truck that would give me some problems in the future. Very happy. Alice Jones9 February 2024 Rick and the team were fantastic. Highly recommend! Nik Haddock7 February 2024 Excellent and quick mechanical service. Highly recommended. Thomas Debrincat7 February 2024 Very happy with service julian murata11 November 2023 Recently we purchased another twin steer heavy truck as we needed another to float equipment. I can personally recommend Diesel Mechanics Australia in Thomastown as Rick and the boys were on the ball and right on the money with all the necessary items required to complete our updated twin steer truck as the heart of our company requires a reliable vehicle to transport our plant and equipment around metropolitan and regional Victoria. Methodological process was applied as is required for stringent Vicroads roadworthy condition to complete roadworthy certificate, leading up to transfer. We also require the truck and to fault find before it happens to remove down time. Rick and the boys really know their stuff and I couldn't be more grateful for the final outcome. Diesel Mechanics Aust are thorough, reliable, honest and competitive with their pricing. Our truck was in the workshop for some weeks as parts were an issue and Rick worked with us wherever possible to save a dollar but maintain compliance as needed. Again thankyou Rick for all your effort. Diesel Mechanics Aust are our preferred truck diesel technicians.

The time it takes to repair a fuel system depends on the severity of the problem and the specific issue. Minor repairs, such as replacing a filter or cleaning injectors, can take a few hours. More complex issues, like replacing a pump or addressing a clogged line, may take a day or longer, depending on the make and model of your vehicle or machinery.
It’s generally not advisable to drive your truck if the fuel system is malfunctioning. Driving with a damaged system can lead to more serious engine problems, such as complete engine failure, and may cause unsafe driving conditions. It’s best to have the vehicle inspected and repaired as soon as you notice issues.
The frequency of servicing your system depends on the type of machinery and its usage, but generally, system maintenance should be done:
Every 12,000 to 15,000 miles (or 20,000 to 24,000 kilometers) for standard vehicles.
Every 500 to 1,000 hours of operation for heavy machinery. Routine maintenance may include replacing the filter, inspecting lines, and cleaning injectors or pumps. Always refer to the manufacturer’s recommendations for specific service intervals.
