13 Step Process for Remanufacturing Cylinder Heads
Like most auto parts, cylinder heads can eventually crack or fail for various reasons. A broken cylinder head can be fixed in three ways: buying a new cylinder head, rebuilding, and remanufacturing the cylinder head. While buying a new one is relatively expensive, remanufacturing or rebuilding cylinder heads are the preferred options for many due to their lower prices. Rebuilding a cylinder head means only the broken components like springs, valves, injector sleeves, or guides will be fixed. It involves welding these cracks to fix the cylinder head and put them all together. On the other hand, remanufacturing cylinder heads involves replacing every single component of the cylinder head with new specifications. Remanufacturing involves casting, cleaning, machining, installing new components, and testing the cylinder head. Cracking of the cylinder head is the most common reason for engine breakdowns. While rebuilding a cylinder head costs the least, it’s not a defi...
