Our Aircraft Engine Overhaul Process
1. Engine Disassembly & Inspection
Every overhaul begins with a full teardown of your aircraft’s engine. Our team carefully removes and catalogs each component, inspecting for wear, cracks, corrosion, or any signs of damage. We follow manufacturer specifications and FAA guidelines to determine the necessary repairs or replacements.
2. Component Cleaning & Precision Measurement
After disassembly, every part undergoes an extensive cleaning process using specialized equipment to remove debris, carbon buildup, and oil residues. We then conduct precision measurements to ensure components meet tolerances set by the engine manufacturer.
3. Repairs, Replacements & Machining
-
Crankshaft & Camshaft Inspection – We check for proper alignment and wear, performing refinishing or replacement as needed.
-
Cylinder Reconditioning – We inspect cylinder walls, hone or replace liners, and ensure proper compression.
-
Piston & Ring Evaluation – If necessary, pistons and rings are replaced with high-performance alternatives to optimize efficiency.
-
Valve & Seat Refinishing – Ensuring tight tolerances for peak combustion performance.
4. Reassembly & Testing
Once all parts are repaired or replaced, we reassemble the engine with precision torque settings and factory-approved sealants. Before final installation, the engine undergoes rigorous testing, including:
• Compression Testing – Ensuring each cylinder performs at peak efficiency.
• Magneto & Ignition Testing – Confirming spark timing and power delivery.
• Oil System Check – Verifying lubrication flow for longevity and reliability.
5. Test Run & Quality Assurance
Before an overhauled engine is returned to service, we conduct a comprehensive test run on our certified engine test stand. This ensures proper function, smooth operation, and adherence to manufacturer performance benchmarks.
