Why Dyno Test

Engine Repair & Overhaul

Expert diagnostics and repairs, as well as complete overhauls for all types of industrial engines and generators.

  • Performance verification vs. spec - Confirm horsepower/torque curves and operating behavior match the expectations for your model and application.

  • Quality assurance before install - Catch issues like fueling, timing, cooling, and oil pressure while the engine is out - avoiding costly removal and downtime later.

  • Troubleshooting under load - Replicate real conditions to pinpoint problems that static tests can miss.

  • Documentation for your records -Receive a clear report you can keep with service history and maintenance planning.
