smoke coming out of a muffler

In the diesel world, "blow-by" is a term you’re bound to run across at some point if your line of work involves diesel-powered vehicles of any kind. What is blow-by, what causes it, and how concerned should you be? At Lee's Brake, Muffler, & Tire Service in Sandersville, GA, our fleet maintenance and diesel technicians see it on a regular basis. Here we’ll take a quick look at blow-by, correcting it, and preventing it.

gear shift

Sometimes your car, truck, or SUV stops performing quite like it used to. At Lee's Brake, Muffler, & Tire Service in Sandersville, we can fix that. A simple but common issue on vehicles equipped with a manual transmission is shifter bushing issues. Your shifter has a bushing on the end of it, where it connects to the actual transmission. Its purpose is to provide tight, smooth shifting.

Glow Plugs are an essential component of your diesel engine. However, a faulty glow plug can go unnoticed or be neglected for quite some time; your truck will still start and run, so it’s an easy issue to overlook. At Lee's Brake, Muffler, & Tire Service in Sandersville, we want you to know what to look for, and why you should be concerned with a bad glow plug.

car door

No matter what type of car, truck, or SUV you drive, old or new, it probably has doors. Those doors are heavy, and they see a lot of use. Naturally, from time to time, parts wear out. If your door doesn’t function as well as it should, here’s why, courtesy of Lee's Brake, Muffler, & Tire Service in Sandersville.
