  • From “excellent” to “disappointment”

    Loved the podcast…until you highlighted an OnlyFans “diesel influencer.” Thanks, but no thanks.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Diesel Parts Scam Costing You Thousands
Q: How do counterfeit parts impact SPE and its customers beyond being cheaper?
Counterfeit parts undermine trust, create safety risks due to inferior materials and testing, and impose support burdens on SPE as they assist customers who were sold inferior or misrepresented parts.
The Diesel Parts Scam Costing You Thousands
Q: What was the video about and why is it important for diesel truck owners to pay attention?
The video covers how SPE parts get copied, why counterfeiters target popular products, and how this harms buyers through misrepresented products and safety risks, underscoring the need for buyers to buy from trusted, American-made channels.
Can I Delete My Truck Now? EPA Pardons Explained by a Lawyer
Q: How does somebody reach out to you if they want to pursue a pardon?
We outline a process where applicants either hire us to submit and advocate for them with the administration and DOJ, making sure their case is presented to the right offices and reviewers, which increases the odds, though there are no guarantees.
This $2 Cummins Part Can Destroy Your Engine
Q: What role do additives and filtration play in maintenance, and how should owners think about oil and fuel quality?
Oil analysis, filtration strategy, and balancing cost versus performance are key; higher-end oils can extend intervals if filtration and monitoring are solid, and fuel lubricity additives (like Hotshot Secrets) can reduce risk of costly failures when used as part of a broader maintenance plan.
This $2 Cummins Part Can Destroy Your Engine
Q: What are common maintenance mistakes you see and how should people approach maintenance for six- and seven-Cummins?
The guest emphasizes aligning maintenance with actual use, keeping simple intervals (like 6,000 miles) with oil samples, and avoiding overly complex schedules; he highlights the value of full-service inspections and sticking to a predictable routine rather than chasing the latest oil or filter scheme.
