When a vehicle’s engine is new, it has the power you expect, but as it gets more and more miles on it, it seems to slow down, and things start breaking. Engine repair is more about restoring the soul of your vehicle – without it, you’re going nowhere fast. Keeping up with preventative maintenance helps keep your engine in top shape for more miles.
To properly repair an engine, the technician must have an understanding of how internal combustion engines work and have the right engine repair and replacement skills to make those repairs. In an auto repair shop like Eastside Automotive in Greer, South Carolina, the skilled mechanics and auto technicians take several steps to repair engines, including:
Some of the common engine repairs we see at Eastside Automotive include:
Head gaskets can break without reason, but in most cases, they break when you overheat the engine. Some vehicles use metal head gaskets that can last seemingly forever as long as you don’t fill the radiator with plain water and flush the coolant every five year.
Oil pumps seldom wear out before the life of the vehicle is over, but it can happen. They also malfunction or wear out faster if you don’t change the oil as recommended by the manufacturer.
Valve cover gaskets can be made of rubber or cork. Over time, the heat from the engine causes them to crack. Once that happens, oil leaks down the side of the block, often on the hot exhaust. When you notice a valve cover leak, it’s best to replace the gaskets as quickly as possible to minimize the risk of fire.
