What we do when rebuilding all engines
-
The engine is stripped to bare component
-
We then put all parts including the block into a high pressure cylindrical wash at high temperature with cleansing chemicals,this removes all carbon deposits and debris from previous failures.
-
From this stage the cylinder bock is re-honed. Some may need to be re-bored & some may need re sleeving this would be at an extra cost.
-
The piston rings are then changed.
-
Connecting rods are then checked for true-ness & re-honed.
-
The crankshaft is then checked and polished.
-
After this the main and big end bearing shells are replaced kolbenschmidt bearings
-
The oil pump is then recondition.
-
Cylinder head is stripped down and checked for wear, pressure tested for cracks and then face machined.
-
Valve guides are then checked for wear and replaced as necessary.
-
After this valve seats are machined and valve stem seals are then replaced with new Elring guides.
-
Refaced valves are re cut & the head then vacuum tested.
-
From there we refit the valves and followers as necessary.
-
The camshafts is then checked for wear and replaced as necessary.
-
The engine is then reassembled with new Elring gaskets and seals etc.


All engines and gearboxes sold by Dal Jones Automotive are on exchange basis of serviceable units.
