What You Need to Know Before You Rebuild Your Diesel Engine

Before You Choose a Service, You Should Know...

Your engine is important to you. Before you hand it off, it's important to know what you're getting. Follow these three guidelines when looking for someone to help you rebuild you're engine. They'll help you make the right decision.

• The Choice with the Lowest Price Isn't Always the Right Choice: Are They Offering a Turn-Key Experience?
• Do They Have Experience Rebuilding a Large Variety of Diesel Engines?
• What Is Their Warranty? Do They Stand Behind Their Work?

1. The Cheapest Choice May Not Be the Right Choice

We have all heard this before. You don't always get what you pay for. Well, in the heavy duty diesel business, we believe there's no such thing as cutting corners when it comes to your safety and your engine's performance. So when you choose a service to reman your engine, make sure they're using the best parts for the job. Otherwise, it could mean trouble down the road.

2. How Extensive is Their Diesel Engine Experience?

As you read in The NDE Story, we started building diesel engines for ourselves before we even got started in this business. That gave our master techs the type of grass roots experience you'll have trouble finding at other shops. However, if you do shop around, ask them how long they've been working on heavy duty diesels. This isn't a job for just any engine mechanic. You need a team that works together to bring you the best remanufactured engine you can get. Your business and safety depends on it.

3. Warranty Matters. Make Sure They Stand Behind Their Work.

Depending on your engine, National Diesel Engine offers a up to a 15 month warranty. That means if anything goes wrong, we'll make it right. So, just make sure the service you choose stands behind the work they do to your engine. Know the terms of the warranty before you release your engine to be remanufactured so you don't get burned.
