Why recondition an Engine?

Before any work starts, one of the team will conduct a thorough inspection of the engine to determine if the engine is worth reconditioning.

If the technician decides that the engine is worth reconditioning there is a number of procedures to recondition the engine back to its original specifications including:

• Straighten, regrind, and/or polish the crankshaft
• Straighten and recondition connecting rods
• Install and fit new pistons and piston rings
• Bore and hone cylinders and “re-sleeve” if necessary
• Straighten and/or resurface cylinder head(s)
• Completely recondition cylinder heads (valve job)
• Rebalance engine components, if necessary
• Install new crankshaft and camshaft bearings
• Replace and fit camshaft, lifters, timing chain, timing gears
• Replace oil pump and/or oil pump drive components
• Assemble the engine following strict guidelines for bolt torque, tightening
• sequence and parts alignment
• Pre-lube and pressure test final assembly (if required)
• and more!

Magnetic Particle Inspection is a non-destructive testing process for detection surface and slightly sub surface cracks or defects in materials such as iron, nickel, cobalt and some alloys.

There are many benefits to Magnetic Particle Inspections:

1. Quick to carry out so any defects are indicated straight away. This means results are immediate and no waiting times.
2. It shows surface and near surface defects
3. It is cost effective
4. The Magnetic Particle Inspection is portable so it can be used at the Workshop or done on site to save you time. It is useful in confined spaces and can be done on small and large items quickly and efficiently.

There are many components that can be tested including:

• Fan Blades
• Axles
• Twist Locks
• Gears
• Hydraulic Rams
• Pulleys
• Stub Axles
• Steering Components
• Rims
• Gear Box Housing
• Chain Links
• U Bolts
