What Makes an Engine Core?

When the engine on your loader breaks, buying a replacement engine or even a whole new loader can become very expensive, especially if your loader model has been discontinued and you can’t find the right engine or part for your engine loader. However, by using a quality remanufactured engine core, you can get your loader running without the high expense. 
 

What’s an Engine Core? 

Engine cores are automotive engines that have been used and worn down but then remanufactured and reused. The remanufactured part is designed to perform just as well or even better than a brand-new part. Because it prevents materials from being thrown away, it's cheaper than purchasing new parts. It is also often much easier to find a remanufactured engine core for a discontinued loader than finding a totally new engine for the machine. Overall, remanufacturing parts is economically and environmentally friendly. 

There are a variety of used engine cores, as well as remanufactured engine parts including 

• Long Blocks 
• Short Blocks 
• Cutouts 
• Engine Hardware 
• Flywheels 
• Cylinder Head 
• Crankshafts 
• Bare Blocks 
• Manifolds 
• Camshafts 

What is the Remanufacturing Process?  

If you would think using a remanufactured engine or part can decrease the quality of the loader, this is definitely not the case. Once LPS receives an engine core, we disassemble it and clean off dirt and oil so we can assess smaller parts for damage. If pieces are damaged, they are replaced to ensure proper engine function. After reassembly, the engine is rigorously tested to certify that the core meets the required standards. Then the part can be sold for reuse.
