Knowing what caused the engine to fail is the first step in determining whether or not an engine rebuild or replacement is needed. Knowledgeable in simple and complex issues, our automotive technicians are experienced, skilled, and professional & will get you back on the road.
Engine coolant plays a big role in how a vehicle runs. It prevents an engine from overheating in hot weather and freezing in extreme cold weather where things can go very wrong for an engine and a rebuild is needed. That's where we come in.
Even engines with a hole in the block or a crack caused by freezing are repairable by a competent technician, as long as everything is still in alignment (main/cam bearings, housings etc). That’s where we come in. Reach out to us for a diagnostic evaluation.
You will be hard-pressed to find the same level of professionalism that our auto mechanic specialists provide. Our goal is to offer the best engine rebuilding service available to get you back on the road in no time.
During an engine rebuild, the engine will be removed from the vehicle, torn down to its bare parts, & inspected for wear & tear. An engine rebuild is typically a last resort when it comes to engine repair. However, sometimes it can be the best move overall.
Rebuilding engines is a service that requires a type of fine work because it takes measuring, machining, mating, matching and more. In addition, special tools are needed to clean the block and heads. It’s not a job for the do-it-yourself-er.
We provide advice, service, and rebuilds for almost any engine. Skills developed over years of research and development, trial & error, education, and experience allow us to apply the latest state-of-the-art engine rebuilding technology.
One commonly asked question regarding an engine rebuild is whether or not the rebuild resets the odometer. The answer is a BIG no. It does not reset the odometer. If a technician resets an odometer manually, that technician could face legal charges.
Some of the moving parts within your car's engine never touch. They ride on a thin film of motor oil. That's why it is so important to have regular maintenance done. If there is a "knocking noise" in the engine, the moving parts may be touching. Contact us!
Whether you are driving a Ford or a Ferrari, the internal-combustion engine converts energy from the heat of burning gas into torque. That torque is applied to the wheels to make the car move. We understand torque & specialize in engine rebuilding services.
Precision quality rebuilt engines work. We give every effort at our engine rebuilding service in order to offer a product that exceeds in quality and performance at a price that is affordable for our clients.
Often, an engine rebuild can take care of your engine problems. If there is a cloud of blue smoke coming out of the tailpipe of your truck, you may need to have a diagnostic done to determine if the engine can be rebuilt. Rebuilding works!
Engine failures are often caused by one root factor: heat. Whether it's a lack of oil pressure or clean oil to lubricate moving parts or a failed cooling system, most major engine failures can be traced back to situations that involve excessive heat.
Engine coolant can deteriorate in time, leading to limited protection & overheating. If a car heats up quickly & overheats on a regular basis, this is a sure sign the car needs a professional diagnostic service or a rebuild. Schedule an appointment with us.
Changing an air filter every 12,000 miles or once a year is a good idea and a good rule of thumb. But if you are driving on dusty roads, it is a good idea to change the air filter in your car more often or at least inspect it regularly.
An engine rebuilding service is often an option that is up to 50% less expensive than a replacement. A rebuild is when your engine is pulled from the vehicle and refurbished. Engine components are then properly replaced with factory-approved parts.
While there are a lot of videos on engine rebuilding available online, this doesn’t mean you should attempt it. After all, a lot of experience, skill, and special tools are needed for the job, so you should not proceed unless you really know what you’re doing.
For the engine block to mate squarely with the cylinder head, a procedure called “decking the block” may have to be performed. This involves using a precision machine tool to remove a thin layer of material from the top of the engine block to ensure that it’s perfectly level.
A high-mileage engine that’s being rebuilt will probably need to have its cylinders re-bored to the next bigger piston size. This means that the motor will be making more power than it did originally, as its displacement will have increased.
Engines—even small ones—contain a lot of complex parts, so they shouldn’t be tampered with lightly. This is particularly true if an engine rebuild is called for as improper procedures and tools may damage the motor even further.
Most of an engine’s components will be reused during a rebuild, but some parts will end up in the recycling bin. High-wear items like piston rings, for instance, may need to be replaced along with water pumps, bearings, and valve seals.
The crankshaft of a piston engine is what transmits power to the drivetrain. As such, it will need to be inspected carefully during an engine rebuild. The trueness of the shaft, in particular, will need to be verified to ensure that it does not oscillate while it is in motion.
