Engine Maintenance Services
Below is a comprehensive list of the engine maintenance services we offer
Check Engine Light
No one likes to see their car's "Check Engine" light come on. The light could mean a costly problem, like a bad catalytic converter, or it could be something minor, like a loose gas cap. At Trocki's Service Inc, we can pull the code and diagnose the problem for you. Give us a call at 724-265-5180 or stop by the shop for our expert assistance.
Fuel Injection
Fuel injection is a system for admitting fuel into an engine. Since 1990, fuel injectors have completely replaced carburetors as the primary means of getting gasoline into the engine. A fuel injector atomizes the fuel by forcibly pumping it through a small nozzle (under high pressure). Failure of the fuel injection system means poor performance and ultimately destroys the engine.
Ignition
Your vehicle's ignition system is responsible for starting the engine by delivering an electrical spark that ignites the air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber. Issues can involve a worn ignition switch, a faulty ignition coil or broken or corroded wiring. These problems can lead to symptoms like the engine failing to start, intermittent stalling, dashboard warning lights, or even complete power loss while driving.
Ignition Wires & Cables
These vital parts transfer the spark from the ignition coil to spark plugs that ignite the mixture of fuel and air. The mixture starts the engine. Over time, ignition wires and cables get weak and break down. This makes it impossible for the spark to reach the engine cylinders. This results in the engine misfiring. Common symptoms of faulty ignition cables and wires are: poor gas mileage, engine misfires, engine light is on, and engine vibration.
Oil, Lube, and Filter
To keep running smoothly, your car highly relies on oil, lube, and oil filters. Oil helps in lubricating, cooling, and cleaning the internal engine components. With time, motor oil becomes contaminated. Your car needs an oil, lube, and filter change every three months (or 3,000 miles) in order to function optimally.
Spark Plugs
A spark plug delivers electric current to the combustion chamber from the ignition system. Spark plugs that haven't been changed for a long time can cause ignition problems. At Trocki's Service Inc, we have automotive experts who will check and replace your spark plugs. For all your spark plug repair or replacement needs, call 724-265-5180 or visit Trocki's Service Inc today.
Spark Plug Related FAQs
How do you know when a spark plug needs to be replaced?
The most common sign that a spark plug needs replacing is an engine that hesitates during acceleration. Other warning signs may include engine misfires during startup, rough idling, sluggish acceleration, declining fuel economy, and engine knocking.
What else should I replace when replacing spark plugs?
If you're considering having your vehicle's spark plugs replaced, there's a good chance the spark plug wires should be replaced as well. Ignition wires become brittle over time, and worn wires can lead to engine misfires, poor performance, and reduced fuel economy.
Check Engine Light FAQs
What could cause a check engine light to come on?
Come by Trocki's Service Inc and we can diagnose the reasons for a check engine light turning on. It can range from something serious like a faulty catalytic converter or potential engine failure to something simple like a loose gas cap or the need for a routine 50,000- or 100,000-mile manufacturer maintenance service.
Is it okay to drive with the engine light on?
The short answer is no. The longer explanation is that the light may indicate a serious engine problem, and continuing to drive as if nothing is wrong could result in much more expensive repairs. A check engine light means you should have your vehicle inspected as soon as possible by a professional at Trocki's Service Inc in Russellton.
What is the most common problem with my check engine light?
A loose gas cap is one of the most common reasons a check engine light comes on. However, the best way to determine the exact cause is to have a technician at Trocki's Service Inc read the diagnostic code stored in your vehicle's onboard OBD computer.
What does a solid check engine light mean?
A steady check engine light generally indicates a non-emergency issue that still needs attention. Come by Trocki's Service Inc and we'll help diagnose and resolve the problem before it becomes more serious.
What does an intermittent flashing check engine light mean?
A flashing check engine light is a warning of a potentially severe problem that requires immediate attention. Get your vehicle to an auto repair shop as quickly as possible, or safely park it and arrange for a tow to your preferred repair facility to avoid further engine damage.

If only people knew ! I'm in total shock ! It is good to know Joe, and the team out at Trockis. I did $18k worth of tree work for a company that has tow trucks on the north side of Pittsburgh , the deal was to trade car work for tree work, I got nothing but stickers and messed up trucks back! No contract of course, so I was so weighed down and defeated with 6 kids and a business on hold. So I took it to another mechanic in McKees Rocks, he was supposed to be a genius! This man was rude and charged me astronomical numbers for work he never did! and then decided he was not going to do the job no more leaving my truck even worse, telling me it was a BCM issue! I paid him $1100 for My truck to come back worse than what I gave it to him! By Luck, I was introduced to a man named Joe out at trockis . And I could not be more pleased! He kept me updated through every bit of the procedure. He found multiple things that no one else could find. He did by far, more work on my truck than any of the other mechanics. But the biggest catcher is he actually fixed it. I felt so comfortable during every step of the procedure. And not once did he play any shifting games with me he informed me of the rates and was honest to his word. And honors his work! I was beginning to believe that all mechanics were scumbags Until I met them. The weight that has been lifted off my chest is immense. the fact that I can take care of my family again and get back on my feet is a gratitude I cannot express to that team out there. A problem that no one else could find or fix this man had fixed in a few days And there were multiple problems! And I must say I'm very pleased with the price! Super easy to deal with, super comfortable to talk to, and the work is pristine. I feel like I'm driving a new truck. I want to thank you guys very much out there. And for now on my Vehicles will never see another mechanic! My only issue is that I wish they where closer to me! But that's really not an issue at all because for that type of service they provide, I will make my way there! I'm almost afraid to leave this review because I don't want my Gem to get too shiny! Lol. If you want it done and you want it done right Leave it at trockis for a night ! Thank you so much guys . As I said, there are no words that can express my gratitude with this company and how professional they were. And how they were the only ones to find a problem that no one else could find! And fix it !
