No matter what you drive, compression is important. On fleet and commercial diesel engines, it’s essential. At Ekart Automotive in Manhattan, KS, we have the knowledge and ability you need to keep your fleet on the road and running strong.
You trust your diesel to get you to point A to point B every time you get into your truck.

In the old days, when your headlight burned out you just replaced the entire thing with a new glass bulb. Modern headlights are plastic assemblies, with a bulb inserted through the back. What this means, is that the plastic lens that light shines through never gets replaced, and eventually will begin to oxidize and deteriorate due to time, weather, and heat from your bulb. Today you will learn when it’s time to fix or replace your headlight assemblies, what options you have in doing so, and what the benefits are.
If you’ve ever been behind the wheel of a commercial truck, you already know that driving in reverse isn’t easy. At Ekart Automotive in Manhattan, most of the damage we see is a result of an accident which occurred in reverse.
