Disassembly and Documentation
The engine is disassembled into components like cylinders and pistons. Each part is tagged for tracking, with notes taken for proper reassembly and identifying abnormalities.
Cleaning and Inspection
Components are cleaned using ultrasonic methods. Nondestructive testing detects, while dimensional inspections ensure manufacturer tolerances.
Repair or Replacement of Components
Worn components found during inspection are repaired or. Cylinders may be honed, valves and seats ground for a tight seal, and bearings, seals, and gaskets replaced during overhauls.
Crankshaft and Camshaft Reconditioning
The crankshaft and camshaft are inspected for wear, cracks, or imbalance. If necessary, the crankshaft is polished, reground, or replaced. Camshafts are also repaired or replaced to ensure proper timing and smooth operation.

Testing and Run-In Procedures
The overhauled engine is tested on a certified stand. This includes a "run-in" to seat piston rings, performance checks for output and oil pressure, and leak tests for seal security. Adjustments optimize performance.
Final Inspection & Documentation
After testing, the engine is thoroughly inspected once more to confirm compliance with all manufacturer and FAA requirements. Detailed documentation is prepared, including overhaul reports, test results, and any applicable certifications. The engine logbook is updated with all relevant information.
