Ignition Marine's Holistic Piston Overhaul Service for Marine Engines

Our holistic approach ensures that every aspect of your engine’s pistons and cylinders is thoroughly inspected and serviced.

Piston and Cylinder Inspection

Our process begins with a detailed inspection of the pistons for any signs of wear, scoring, or damage. We also carefully check the cylinder walls for signs of wear, scoring, or pitting.

Piston Removal and Replacement

Once the inspection is complete, we disassemble the engine to access the pistons. Old or damaged pistons are removed and replaced with new or refurbished options, including marine-grade choices designed for enhanced durability.

Piston Ring Replacement

As part of our holistic service, we replace worn piston rings to restore engine compression. New rings are installed and fitted with meticulous attention to detail, including careful measurement to ensure the proper ring gap, which is crucial for optimal engine performance.

Engine Reassembly and Testing

Finally, we reassemble the engine with precision torquing and alignment to ensure everything fits perfectly. After reassembly, we conduct comprehensive testing, including compression tests and operational checks, to verify that your engine is running smoothly and efficiently.
