Engine disassembly & assembly
Engine disassembly and assembly is for customers who bring a separate unit or plan to purchase parts themselves.
Symptoms
- The engine is brought in separately, or parts are sourced independently, and needs full teardown with inspection.
What's included
- We fully dismantle the engine, wash components, inspect them with measurements and provide a list of items requiring replacement or machining. Assembly follows the manufacturer's torque values and tightening sequence, with clearance checks and new seals. An incorrect head or crankshaft-bed tightening sequence deforms parts and can cause engine failure.
Additional checks
- Washing components after disassembly
- Drawing up a list of parts needing replacement or machining
- Fitting new seals during assembly
Why it matters
The wrong tightening sequence for the head or crankshaft bearing saddles warps parts, and the engine fails on the very first run. Assembly follows the manufacturer's torque values and sequence, with clearances checked.
More details
Engine disassembly and reassembly is a service for those bringing in the unit on its own or planning to source parts themselves. We fully disassemble the engine, wash the parts, carry out a defect inspection with measurements, and provide a list of what needs replacing or machining. Reassembly follows the manufacturer's torque values and tightening sequence, with clearance checks and new seals fitted. This isn't a formality: an incorrect tightening sequence on the head or the crankshaft main caps warps the parts, and the engine fails on its very first run.
