Understanding Powerstroke Engines
What We Work On
Powerstroke engines have powered Ford diesel trucks for decades, and each generation has its own strengths, quirks, and common service needs. At Performance Place, we’re experienced in diagnosing and repairing every version — from early 7.3L workhorses to the modern 6.7L high-output diesels.
7.3L Powerstroke (1994–2003)
Known for: Reliability, longevity, and simple mechanical design
The 7.3L is beloved for its bulletproof performance and ease of maintenance. Common services include injector replacements, glow plug repairs, and oil cooler servicing. These engines are getting older, so oil leaks and wiring harness issues are becoming more common.
6.0L Powerstroke (2003–2007)
Known for: Power gains — and common issues
The 6.0L brought more power but introduced well-known issues like EGR failures, oil cooler restrictions, and head gasket problems. We specialize in diagnosing the root cause of these problems and performing bulletproofing upgrades, when needed, to restore long-term reliability.
6.4L Powerstroke (2008–2010)
Known for: Twin turbos and DPF-equipped emissions systems
This generation brought better performance, but it’s prone to injector failures, turbo issues, and DPF clogging. We handle these trucks with advanced diagnostics and emissions system service to help keep you out of limp mode and on the road.
6.7L Powerstroke (2011–Present)
