Jim is a fantastic Powerstroke Diesel tech and it's very clear that he knows these engines like the back of his hand. He was extremely helpful in getting our 6.0 no-start issue diagnosed and repaired in a timely manner.We had a no-start issue that we suspected was being caused by a lack of oil pressure. After taking the truck to Jim's shop, he was able to verify that the injectors weren't firing as a result of a bad HPOP within a matter of hours. By 2pm the following day he had our biased ICP sensor replaced, our damaged IPR replaced, and a new HPOP installed to finish the repair. The truck runs beautifully now. He was also able to point out a number of other concerns regarding the truck's previous maintenance and reassembly by other mechanics, and corrected them as he saw fit to prevent future issues. If your truck has been reassembled incorrectly, Jim will be able to get it back to how it would have come from the factory with his incredible attention to detail.We will absolutely be using Jim and his services regularly from now on. I highly recommend taking your Powerstroke diesel truck here if you're in the greater Chicagoland area, good mechanics are hard to find and Jim is certainly a needle in the haystack.

Powerstroke central is bar-none, the only place to service your Ford diesel truck. Jim is an excellent mechanic and his work speaks for itself. I had him service my truck before undertaking a cross country trip and the truck performed flawlessly.

I wouldn t take my lawn mower here. It would sit for 4 months before he tells me it s got a flat tire. Jim was extremely rude my entire experience working with him. It is hard to find a good diesel mechanic, so save your time and don t bother taking your vehicles here.

We have been sending our trucks to Jim for about 2 years now. He is the most honest shops that I do business with. When I take one of our trucks to Jim I know the problem will be solved.

Highly recommend for heavier diesel repair. We had a 2019 Ram 4500 that weighted roughly 8 tons, that was having an issue in the rear end. He had no issue with finding the problem and getting us back on the road in a reasonable time at a reasonable price. Will definitely be returning to for any future issues.

Jim knows his stuff when it comes to my 6.4. I just wish I had found him earlier. If you have a power stroke he s the guy to see. Prices are very reasonable and he works on these all the time. Good guy who will talk to you and explain what is going on and why.

Jim made the process of repairing my F350 excellent. It can be aggravating to have a truck breakdown, especially when you don't have a clue what's wrong. Jim took the time and care to diagnosis multiple problems I was having and addressed each one. I can't say there's another shop out there as fair. Jim and staff will do your Super Duty right.

This place has horrible service. They have had my father's truck for 7 months and have not even returned the phone calls and messages left in regards to the status of the repair! This place should never be used!!!!!!
