Each engine we supply comes with a detailed list of checks for you to carry out at set intervals.The performance checks required will vary by engine type and operating conditions, so it is wise to ensure the checks and frequency are right for your engine.
The regular checks that you need to carry out fall into daily and weekly categories, along with regular servicing and specified intervals. They all have the same aim of ensuring that your engine runs as long as possible at the maximum efficiency. No two schedules are exactly the same, so you should always check the schedule for your particular engine.
It’s also worth noting that the checks either relate to the calendar time or the hours your engine has been running. Checks should take place far more often on an engine in almost constant use than for one used occasionally. So, for example, changing the engine coolant is recommended every two years – but it will need attention sooner if your engine runs for 3,000 hours, which is the equivalent of running 24/7 for just over four months.
Remember, the daily checks are just as important as the regular servicing.
