The exhaust on your truck is an important series of components, that work together to insure smooth, reliable operation. At Sac Valley Diesel in Sacramento, CA, we also know that exhaust systems are especially susceptible to damage and rust; pipes, mufflers, and other parts are exposed to hazards on the road, and to the environment. This situation, combined with caustic emissions and extreme heat, create a perfect opportunity for problems to arise.
When your exhaust system succumbs to rust, damage, or wear and tear, have it repaired or replaced as soon as possible. It’s important to keep your exhaust system in shape for a variety of reasons:
- Diesel engines are inherently loud, and one with a faulty exhaust is even louder. Keep your trucks sounding good with a well-maintained exhaust system.
- Expensive components like catalytic converters can be damaged from an exhaust system that has been neglected.
- A correctly operating exhaust is crucial to meeting emission control regulations. Exhaust issues are bad for the environment, may earn you a fine, and definitely won’t pass inspection.
- Bad parts will only get worse; rust spreads, bolts become more stuck, and warped and cracked parts result from both.
- Trucks are often a public ambassador for your company, in essence. A truck with a poor exhaust system will be perceived as being in much worse condition than it is.
