Resurrect Equipment With Replacement Engine
FREDERICK, Md. Engine
breakdowns always seem to hap
pen at the busiest times. Although
a complete overhaul will work, a
replacement engine may be a
more sensible approach.
“Just having a piece of equip
ment sit for a few hours can cause
big problems when you’re on a
tight schedule,” said Kevin Dot
terer, parts manager, Ceresville
Pord New Holland Inc.
Not knowing the cause of the
problem, how much repairs will
cost, or when the machine will be
running again can leave equip
ment owners confused and frus
trated. Dotterer offers a solution
consider replacing the engine
instead of an, overhaul.

“When you’re deciding
whether to rebuild or replace an
engine, there’s more to consider
than cost. The amount of down
time, risks of mixing old parts
with new ones, possibility of
future breakdowns and length of
warranty must all weigh on the
decision.”
If an engine is not performing
up to par, consumes more oil than
normal or is blowing excess
smoke out the breather pipe, a
compression check will show if
major repairs are heeded. Deter
mining the exact cause of the
problem involves tearing the
engine down and examining all
pieces for wear. When the block
needs to be rebored or the crank
shaft needs regrinding, both repair
costs and downtime may increase,
said Dotterer.
‘To avoid the pitfalls associated
with an overhaul job, be sure to
consider the advantages of install
ing a brand new replacement
engine,” he said. “When you add
on the cost of lost time before the
rebuilt engine is back on the job,
the price of one of our BSD
(Basildon Series Diesel) Engines
is comparable to an overhaul, usu
ally only S-10 percent more.”
Durability and improved tech
nology are other benefits of a
replacement engine. All Ford New
Holland BSD engines feature the
latest design components, are hot
tested and run up to power before
leaving the assembly line.
“Thanks to quality workman
ship and factory testing. Ford New
Holland has the confidence in
BSD engines to offer a full one
year warranty. Warranties on
