We take pride in conducting a thorough inspection process to ensure that every engine and motor B&R delievers is up to quality standards. Our professional technicians conduct a compression test of each cylinder, as well as a visual test to ensure the engine or motor you receive is worthy of shipping out. The inventory specialist then records the compression, as well as any other note in our state-of-the-art computer system, so that our customers can review the notes before buying.

If you have any questions, we encourage you to call us at 1-855-339-1932 and talk with one of our experts.

How to prep your core engine for return:

• NOTE: The "engine core" refers to your old engine; the one you are replacing with an engine from B&R.
• Do not return your core engine before installation is complete (this may result in missing parts that are needed to complete installation).
• Completely drain all fluids from core engine.
• Mark core as “CORE” and contact sales representative for a pick-up.
• Core engine must be completely assembled and returned on pallet or container as delivered.

• Replace engine oil, fuel filter, antifreeze, and oil filter.
• Replace engine oil cooler or external cooler if equipped.
• Flush cooling system.
• Replace water pump.
• Replace hoses and belts.
• Replace timing belt.

• Clear all computer codes from the vehicle prior to installing.
• Make sure engine is the same application as the one being replaced.
• Exchange accessory items (exhaust manifolds, mounts, distributor, sensor).

We test our engines, plug and clean them, and securely strap them to a pallet. We take pictures and attach them to a letter with a description of the engine and email it to our customer so that they can see and approve that the engine is correct and that they agree that the product we are sending meets their expectations. This also gives us the opportunity to confirm the shipping address and whether a lift gate is needed when the engine arrives to its destination, to ensure the best delivery experience.
