Fuel Line Issues
One of the most common issues reported by Chevy truck owners is fuel line issues. Many have noticed the air tends to seep into their fuel lines, which therefore starves their engines of fuel and prevents them from starting. This particular issue is typically caused by Chevy fuel pumps. The amount of pressure the fuel pump uses to pull fuel into the system has been known to cause leaks, which in turn causes air to be sucked into the system. To fix this issue, our technicians will replace your fuel lines and inspect your fuel pump.
Water Pump / Coolant Issues
Water pump failure is a common issue on heavy-duty Chevy trucks. When the water pump fails, your coolant won’t be pumped through your engine properly. This in turn causes your engine to overheat. Here at Absolute Repair, our technicians are well equipped to handle water pump replacement and repairs.
