🚨 Straight talk, folks! We've had four inquiries this month: YES, you can run red diesel on the road right now! This dyed off-road fuel is simply 15 ppm ULSD with a dye added. 🌟 It’s safe for your truck!

But beware! What's harmful is the other option: the EPA is allowing diesel with 500 ppm sulfur in Texas until Oct. 24, and a whopping 5,000 ppm in Alaska! 🚫⚠️ Their own guidelines state that no vehicle equipped with a DPF or catalytic aftertreatment (that's every truck from 2007 onward!) should touch it. Sulfur doesn’t just burn off; it damages your filter and your warranty with Cummins will be denied!

See a sulfur warning sticker on the pump? Steer clear! Unsure about your truck’s certification? Swing by, and we’ll help you read that emissions label—totally free!

🚨 ABS Light On? Here's Your First Step!

Before making a costly module purchase, try reseating the wheel speed sensor. Over time, these sensors can slip out of their bushing, widening the gap to the tone ring and causing erratic signals. Don’t forget to check the connector for corrosion and inspect the tone ring teeth—you might find the real issue!

🚛 Check the Ground Before You Replace the Part🚛

Salt air eats connectors down here. A corroded ground sets codes that look exactly like a failed component. Clean it, check voltage drop, then decide. A lot of bad sensors are good sensors with a bad path to the battery.

El aire salado se come los conectores por aquí. Una tierra corroída genera códigos idénticos a los de un componente dañado. Límpiala, mide caída de voltaje y después decide. Muchos sensores "malos" son sensores buenos con un mal camino a la batería.

⚠️ URGENT SAFETY RECALL: 4,338 MACK & VOLVO TRUCKS AT RISK ⚠️
Attention fleet owners and operators! It’s time to check your VINs without delay! L&M National Equipment Sales has issued a critical advisory regarding three new NHTSA campaigns that were announced this week. We’re addressing two significant concerns:
🔴 **BRAKING ISSUE** (Tanker Package Only — Reduced Stopping Distances)
A software glitch is miscalculating axle loads, compromising braking efficiency while towing smoothbore tankers.
• Mack Anthem & Pioneer (2026–27): 850 Units Affected (NHTSA 26V620)
• Volvo VNL (2025–27) & VNR (2026–27): 392 Units Affected (NHTSA 26V619)
🔴 **BEZELS ISSUE** (All Listed Trucks — Hazard on the Road)
Intake and grille bezels risk detachment, posing a serious threat to vehicles behind.
• Mack Anthem (2026–27) & Pioneer (2025–27): 3,096 Units Affected (NHTSA 26V631)
🛠️ **What You Need to Know:**
• The repair is absolutely FREE at any authorized Mack or Volvo dealer.
• While official owner notification letters are set to mail from Nov 27–30, don’t wait for the notice!
❓ **Is your truck on the list?**
Don’t guess—let us diagnose! Text or email your VIN for a FREE check with no appointment needed. If you're hauling tankers, we can also assess your brake performance while this campaign is active.

🚨 SHOP NOTES: Diesel prices may have just seen a dip, but you're still facing a staggering nearly six bucks a gallon.

The week ending September 28 finally delivered some relief, with the national average falling to $6.382.. Here in sunny Florida (Lower Atlantic district), we landed at $5.953—a drop of 18.6 cents!

While this is a positive shift, diesel prices are still $2.628 a gallon higher compared to the same week last year. Refineries are operating at 96.8% capacity, leaving no room for hiccups in the supply chain.

Fuel has officially become the make-or-break factor for fleets and owner-operators alike. The only variable you can control is how efficiently your truck transforms a gallon into miles.

Where might your MPG be slipping away?

• Aftertreatment & DEF: Ensure your DPFs are completing regens and check for SCR plumbing leaks.
• Air Intake & Boost: Watch for clogged filters, loose clamps, or cracked charge-air coolers.
• Injectors & Fuel Side: Check for weak injectors or out-of-spec return flow.
• Brake Drag: Look for sticking Bendix or Wabco valves, or seized slacks.
• Tires & Alignment: Keep an eye on low pressure or mismatched duals.

Stop guessing about your fuel economy! Allow our PACCAR-Certified shop to conduct a thorough Fuel Economy Diagnostic and uncover those missing miles.

The First Regen Light Is the Cheap Warning

The regen light is cheap. The derate is not. When it comes on the system needs a hot sustained run to burn off soot — give it highway miles or do a parked regen. Keep stacking short runs and idle time and you go from a regen to a derate to a DPF replacement.

La luz de regen sale barata. El derate no. Cuando enciende, el sistema necesita un recorrido caliente y sostenido para quemar el hollín — dale carretera o haz un regen estacionado. Si sigues acumulando viajes cortos y ralentí, pasas de un regen a un derate y de ahí a cambiar el DPF.

🚨 Attention all 2027 Kenworth and Peterbilt owners from this past summer! 🚨

Important notice: PACCAR recall 26PACD (NHTSA 26V-485) impacts around 5,919 trucks. There’s a chance your power distribution center box could have oil leakage. If it fails, you risk losing drive power along with ABS, headlights, wipers, and defog — all at once! Owner letters were sent out on Sept 25, so check your mail now.

The good news? The recall fix is FREE at your Kenworth or Peterbilt dealer! But if you’re experiencing issues and your truck isn’t on the recall list, you may have a serious electrical fault that needs attention. Let us help!

Send us your VIN today, and we’ll get you the answers you need!

🚛 The 90-Second Air Leak-Down Test

Ninety seconds at the start of your shift can save you an out-of-service sticker. Build to governor cutout, shut it down, release the brakes, watch the gauges. 2 psi single vehicle, 3 psi combination. Losing more than that, you have a leak — find it before an officer does.

Noventa segundos al inicio del turno te pueden evitar un "out of service". Carga hasta el corte del gobernador, apaga, suelta los frenos y observa los manómetros. 2 psi sencillo, 3 psi combinado. Si pierdes más, tienes una fuga — encuéntrala antes que un oficial.
