Remanufacturing Process

Engine Deep Clean – The revitalization of each engine initiates with its disassembly to the basic components, which are then subjected to an extensive cleaning process. Cast iron engines undergo cleaning in a hot tank, while aluminum engines are cleansed using a thermal method.

Detailed Evaluation – The Magnaflux technique, a method that employs magnetic particles, is utilized to detect even the smallest flaws or cracks in the metal that could affect the engine's future performance and longevity. Additionally, a meticulous visual inspection of every component is performed to catch any potential issues.

Expert Machining & Replacement Parts – The next step involves the precise CNC machining of the engine's deck surfaces, followed by the addition of new, superior-quality components to ensure the engine's robustness and efficiency. This renewal includes the installation of new bearings, pistons, rings, lifters, an oil pump, gaskets, Viton™ valve seals, freeze plugs, and galley plugs. This is complemented by the installation of a new timing chain or belt, equipped with tensioners. Engines that operate with a timing-driven water pump are fitted with a new pump.

Assurance Testing with SIM – Once reassembled, the engines are subjected to an exhaustive SIM test. This vital test pressures the cooling and oil systems and spins the crank at elevated RPMs to check for adequate compression and to verify that the assembly's quality meets rigorous standards.

Commonly Asked Questions

When deciding on a used, remanufactured, or crate engine for your replacement, the following questions might be on your mind:

Used engines sold by Car Part Planet are a great option for an engine replacement especially if you are on a tight budget and need your car running as soon as possible.

Absolutely! With remanufactured engines, you get to take all factory defects, worn parts, and damaged components out of the equation. Instead of simply replacing the old or damaged parts as occurs in regular rebuilds, the remanufacturer replaces all components inside the engine to make it better than new.

Since remanufacturing eliminates old, damaged, and defective parts, the refurbished motor easily lasts 150,000 miles or more. You can get even more miles out of your reconditioned engine by completing preventive maintenance on a strict schedule. In that case, you could even get over 200,000 miles out of it.

You can buy our used, rebuilt, and remanufactured engines through our online eCommerce site, carpartplanet.com. Our search tool will help you find a compatible engine utilizing the Hollander interchange database. If you prefer, you can simply give our team a call, and we’ll use your VIN to look up identical stock parts.

The overall price of remanufactured engines depends on the vehicle model and build specifications. More often than not, reconditioned motors are less expensive than rebuilt engines. You can occasionally even find them cheaper than used motors, depending on the engine type, size, and overall condition.

While a rebuild kit is cheaper than a remanufactured engine, it does not account for labor hours, special tools, and machining. Beyond that, the remanufacturing process eliminates factory defects and other problems, not just the one that's gone bad.

Rebuilt motors only have the excessively worn or damaged parts replaced. Remanufactured engines, on the other hand, are fully restored using new or re-machined parts. Oftentimes, the remanufacturing process also fixes factory defects that may have caused the original engine failure.

A used engine is one that has been driven in a vehicle for a certain mileage before getting removed and put up “for sale near me”. In contrast, a remanufactured engine has had all of the engine’s internal parts replaced with new or completely remanufactured components. A remanufactured engine will inevitably last significantly longer than a used engine, but a used engine is more budget-friendly.

If you purchase one of our remanufactured or rebuilt engines there will be a core charge that will be refunded once you send it to us. On the other hand, if you purchase one of our used engines there will be no core charge.
