How to find a good Diesel tech
 

How would i go about to find a good diesel shop in my area?

You need to tell what part of PA you are from .

What kind of work you need to have done, give it a little time and i bet someone will give you your answer.

Sorry for the double post, time for a new mouse.

thanks alot its just so costly takening it to the dealer.

what is your problem that you need to take it to the dealer for, and what part of PA are you in.

I have heard (do not quote me on this) that the next best place to the stealership for commercial work is sears. Apparently, they keep at least one diesel specialist on duty.

My suggestion would be to stop by some of the local shops in your area..whether they are diesel shops or not, and ask them who the best diesel mech in town is. They will know who the best diesel mech's are. Coming from a family of mechanics, I know that many times these guys sort of have their own little communities. They all know eachother, who specializes in what, and refer eachother for work in certain situations. It might also be the case that some mechanics only specialize in certain types of diesels...for example, my uncle is a certified cummins mechanic. While he knows how my truck works, would not be as good as a mechanic who has vast experience with the Powerstroke.

If you know of a reputable shop in your town somewhere, I would go ask them!

Check below. It's the PA forum of this site. You'll meet FTE members from your area here.
