Engine Overhaul Services by DSOA

After many years of operation, its time to consider getting an Engine Overhaul for your marine diesel engine. Diesel Services of America offers such a service, as well as a variety of other services for any diesel related equipment. Since 1981, DSOA has been working on the various components of diesel engines and generators and has built a solid reputation as one of the shops in south Florida with the proper knowledge and experience to do so professionally. Diesel engines, and generators, power the operation and electric components of your marine vessel. Over time these machines become damaged and suffer wear and treat that s a normal, natural part of their operation. Although much of this damage can be avoided, or mitigated by having a regular repair schedule with a shop like DOSA, eventually some parts will fail and need to be repaired, or even replaced entirely. This is the nature of the beast as it pertains to diesel equipment, or in fact any combustion engine. When it comes time to perform major repairs, or replacing the engine, consider getting an ‘engine overhaul’. Here are some important reasons to consider not just a basic repair, but a total engine overhaul:

  • Better Gas Milage
  • better power and performance
  • less expensive than replacing an engine

Primarily, you’d want to consider this service if your engine is older, and has suffered usage and wear to the point where it is no longer performing close to the factory standard. Additionally, if your engine has failed to the point of non-operation, you’d likely already be considering a complete replacement. Rather than totally replacing the engine, take it into our shop and see if we can overhaul it. with this process, we take the engine apart down to its core, inspect every nook and cranny, clean and identify problem areas, and total failures. From here we can determine what can be repaired, and what needs to just go and be replaced. Upon completion expect that the engine will peform at, or liley better than the factory expectiations. Many of the following proceudres are part of the engine overhaul services we have performed:

  • rebuilding of Engine Governer
  • Water Jacket Pressure Test
  • Rebuild and seat grinding of Cylinader head
  • Grinding of Cam Valves

An Engine Overhaul can bring your boat back from the dead, or give it a new lease on life! For more info on this service, or any of our other services. Contact DSOA today at: 954-781-1464.
